22.3 MILLION dollars, whee!
564 words eaten alive on December 3, 2007 - Filed Under Spam/Scam -
It’s been a while but I finally got a new scam letter in my email this afternoon. Normally I do 1 of 2 things. I simply delete the message and forget about it, or I send a very hateful reply wishing them and their deceased person a long painful eternity in hell being raped by Satan and stuff. Today I decided to just do a stupid reply that might bait them into thinking I may be interested. If the stupid approach doesn’t work this time, my next one I’ll send a more serious request for information on just how I, an average joe in Canada could possibly get access to millions of dollars for no work.
Scam email received today:
