I doubt anyone here is dumb enough to fall for this, but heads up anyway!

"The Nigerian Check Scam"

I have a whole folder of these saved.  Over 500 of them.  It's kind of a hobby...  When I'm bored I'll write them back telling them they have my complete cooperation.  It's fun to string them along for a couple of weeks.

I get 2 to 3 a week even when I email them back and tell them it's a scam and not to contact me again

"The Nigerian Check Scam"

I have a whole folder of these saved.  Over 500 of them.  It's kind of a hobby...  When I'm bored I'll write them back telling them they have my complete cooperation.  It's fun to string them along for a couple of weeks.

I can't remember what the name of it is at the moment, but there used to be a web site a guy put up where he detailed how he had strung along the scammers...  Even to the point that he would convince them to send pictures of themselves holding funny signs.  Wish I could remember the site...

EDIT:  Oh!  I found it!  Apparently it has developed into an entire community now!  419Eater is the site, google it up if you're interested.

I love how they always have a gmail, yahoo, msn or some other crazy email address.  I get spam from "FedEx" saying they have a check for 74657645764574657457345 dollars and to clam it I need to contact the FedEx office at the_idiot@yahoo.com

419eater is one of my favorite websites on the intarwebs.  Absolutely fantastic.  Our company operates in Nigeria, and I have never seen a culture that embraces successful scam artists like they do.   I hate to generalize, but this is what I have experienced thus far.
