Scam crap like that is just funny to me, but unfortunately there are too many morons that fall for it. Here are some good ones to read and laugh at:

One wall poster that was in my high school auto shop was a line of fishes, large to small and lined up so the large one was ready to eat the small one in front of it. The caption was "There is no such thing as a free lunch". Wise words, IMO.

I do a pretty good job of keeping spam at bay at my real email address by using a Yahoo one for general online use. My lifetime college student email account never gets spam. I really like that!

Con men are all over the world, as are suckers. I have read some of the stupid things that people have done with phony solicitations, and the 'time to thin the herd' line comes to mind in most cases...lol

[Speiro]

[atomic charvel guy]

Make sure to include your pin number at the bank, account details, etc. Congrats dude!!!

Running your own mail server is a pretty effective anti-spam weapon

[j4vice]

When do they send you the money?

[dangerous_dave]

Hey, I'll claim it for ya', just give me all off your bank details- and anything else important I need to know

[wilkinsi]

Like anyone's gonna fall for this shit (well, maybe Sky customers do. They give their bank details to anyone that calls them ). Tell them to send you a cheque, call their bluff.

Here it is:

Although somehow I don't think the occupants of the house have any idea that their address is being used like this. My suspicion is that one of our Nigerian friends is behind it.

You can see it better here...
