Default Scamming The Scammers

I'm sure everyone has gotten one of those e-mails telling you you got millions coming to you. Of course you know its B.S., but unfortunitly some people do fall for these.

One recent case is from Portland Oregan. She ended up sending close to $400,000 to these scumbags.

Well I came across this site http://www.419eater.com/html/letters.htm and basically what they do is string along the scammers for a long while, they even get them to take a picture with a sign, telling them what to write on the sign, such as . I WILL BE WAITING ON MY KNEES AT THE GLORY HOLE FOR YOU. You have to go to the photo gallery to see for yourself.

Anyway just thought isome of those letters were funny.

Firstly can I say thank you for your e-mail. Can I say though, that I must insist that you call me Mr Jack Meihoff, and not just Mr Jack. I am very interested in your business proposal

Thumbs up Vengence is a dish best served cold....

And I spent the last hour enjoying its deliciousness!

I've had these pricks try to get me a couple times, (of course I just delete their crap every time), and this was pure f'ing fun to read...

I'm still smiling!

GOOD POST!:biglaugh

Just goes to show you the crap cretins will pull. Don't trust ANYBODY with your $ or property. Not to be a jerk, but even if a member here asked to borrow some $ from me (w/o collateral), I'd have to say no. Don't trust anyone, and you won't get screwed, I've learned.
