Last night a text came through on my mobile phone telling me that  I had got a payment due that was being paid to me via PAYM. All I had to do was register with my details Yeh! right! I've never heard of  PAYM and knew I  was not expecting a payment of any kind (sadly !)  Taking it for a scam I deleted it and on Googling PAYM today I found a notice on their website warning of a scam that had come to their attention.  I wonder how many unfortunates  will be caught out.

Like you Carole, if i`m not expecting any form of payment or anything from the internet, i too ignore it. 

You could suggest the main reason people allow themselves to be scammed is through greed, the something for nothing scenario, so anything like that, i just ignore it. The same goes for facebook. If i get a friends request from people already on my friends list, i delete it immediately and mark it as spam.
