I received one from "the self proclaimedPresident" of an African Bank (The only one with a Yahoo mail), who said a whole family had died in an accident and left 10 USMD (That's how they wrote US$ 10'000,000, I guess the M stands for Millions) unclaimed.
What was really terrible, is that they sent me a link from the BBC onljne where a news about a whole familiy who had a plane accident was posted.
This was creepy, even for scum as this guys, to play with tyhe pain of the poeple.

For some strange reason, the Nigeria spammers love the police in the UK. In particular those addresses where you can report Nigeria spam mails. These email accounts get tonnes of Nigerian mails every day..... directly from the spammers in the internet cafeterias in Nigeria. I also get my fair share of Nigeria mail. But not as much as the local police force. It is a menace, but one of those menaces I have to live with, I am afraid. |

I get e-mails like that every now and then, and they never fail to make me laugh - for obvious reasons

I've had my main e-mail address for so long, I'm fairly sure 99% is spam, granted there are some "spams" I've signed up for. I'm pretty sure my penis has gotten larger just by coming in contact with those I didn't sign up for..

Yeah, I got one from an Australian camel farm owner who thought a male camel writing reviews for a music website would enhance the gene pool in that camel farm. I turned her down because I prefer my life in Mecca (the bingo halls).

I know.. it does amaze me that people fall for those kinds of things. Then again ...idiots and dreamers do exist and are always looking for a way to get a quick buck. You figure you sent off a million of those things.. and all you get are 4 or 5 people.. you just got YOUR retirement and savings set up.. 4 or 5 times over. ![]() Edited by micky - March 02 2010 at 17:21 |

So that's why we're always mobbed by young women on prog curry nights? I thought it was my similarity to George Clooney.
I suppose now someone's going to tell me that the email I got the other day telling me I'd one £850,000 in an email lottery is a scam as well!

Have you noticed all 419 African Scam (It's not only Nigeria, also Senegal and many other countries) have several alarms:
You need to be a total idiot to fall in this scams, but according to the FBI; this is a several million dollars business P.T. Barnum said it: "There's a sucker born every minute" .

Hey! I'm left out! Why it's so bad about me? Maybe she refused to try to score with the guy with the avatar of the guy with bleeding gums? What is so bad about periodontal disease?!!?!
