If your interested in scammers have a look at 419baiter.com . these guys actual lead on the scammers even getting them to travel thousands of miles! some of the stories and email trails are really funny.
I had an e-mail some time ago from a lovely Russian girl who's mother was quite ill. I just hadn't realised until then how expensive some medicines are in that country. I haven't heard from her for a while.I have been worrying that her mother might not have got better.
Mr Zongo helped me to win the Ivorian Lottery
I once had some guy call at my door. He had a prize of a 42" LCD TV to give away, and he had phoned the prizewinner to get his address. Turns out the other chap thought it was a scam and had made up an address some 50 miles away from where he actually lived - he had told the bloke this when he had phoned to say he could not find the address he had been given.
He had obviously been given the run around so decided to knock on the nearest door and give the prize away - to me!
The TV is fabulous.
