Do reply. String 'em along.

 :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick: NO SHIT!

HEHEHEHEHEHEHEHE you're name isn't scam, why sign it scam?

Scam baiting. It's well fun.  :D

Have a look at this site http://www.419eater.com/

The length some of the scammers go to to try and get your money is quite frankly amazing.

I got that email as well.

I thought it might be a scam.

 :mrgreen:

I was fully aware it was a scam, but thanks for the advice!! My sister got a similar one from some dutch guy trying to launder some money!! I wonder if there are any plebs in this world that fall for these stupid things?

:oops:  :soapy tit wank:

Think I should reply for a laught? Give myself  a fake name and stuff and tell him I have some great ideas for investment and stuff? I could pretend to be Mike Diamandis!!

Go for it.

i got a similar email offering 25% of $25.5million.

i'm asking for a 50% stake.

Is there any way I can get in trouble legally if I send an email pretending to be Mr Diamandis?

Fuck it, I sent it anyway contents below.


Hello Nuora, I hope that you are well.

Sorry to hear about your father, I lost mine at an early age in an accident involving a hamster, 2 pillowcases and a ton of bluetac.

I am very interested in going into business with you, it must be your lucky day, I am a very succesful business man and a great lover to boot. I have many businesses which I have invested lots of cash into and all of my businesses are booming with very happy employers.

If you would like to get in touch with me for my wonderful ideas on how we can make your father's inheritance make us both lots of money, please feel free to get in touch.

My name is Mike Diamandis but you can call me Nick the Greek (it is a cute codename I like to use)

I look forward to hearing from you.

Diamond Mike

Don't ask me for legal advice! I have a criminal record!

That's a copy of Scooby Snacks, presumably?

The man is offering you the opprtunity of a life time and all you can do is take the piss.

You ought to be ashamed of yourself.

Have you got a reply yet? :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:
