Mess around with him, it's a whole new internet sport... www.419eater.com There's some funny "scam the scammers" stuff on that site.

Thats really true. My best friends mother's, aunts, friends, cousin's dad's, stepfather from a previous marriage did this and now he's a millionaire.





















Wanna buy a bridge?

Where's the bridge?
































LOL!

say you'll do it, but only if you get a cool car with guns and shit and a hot naked babe to accompany you. oh ya, and a watch with a built in laser.

This is what I wrote. Thanks Andy for the ideas.

Harry,

I will gladly open up an account for you as long as the following conditions are met. Order is not important.

1. You will buy and ship me the cool car of your choice. A minimum of three guns will need to be mounted on the vehicle with bullet proof windows.

2. You will buy and fly to me one extremely hot female with breast at least the size of large American watermelons. You will also pay for cab fare.

3. A seiko watch with a built in laser. Sterling silver band with 1 (one) .5 karate diamond in the center.

Do not take this e-mail as a joke. Any attempt to scam me through an e-mail will be taken care of violently. I will hunt you down and stick a fork through your skull and proceed to feed your brain to your children. I will boil your testicles and then run them down a cheese grater.

Feel free to return the e-mail as soon as possible so that if you are intrested I may give you my address and bank account number.

If I do not recieve a response then i will be forced to assume that you are a cum guzzling shit eater.

Thank You

I got one sorta like it...forwarded it to the FBI's email scam task force and was sent this as a reply:

Dear Mr. Brady,

THIS IS NOT AN AUTOMATED RESPONSE

Thank you for your submission of information via
the FBI.Gov Web site. Inasmuch as the FBI
receives reports of this type of activity on a
regular basis there is no need to forward any such
additional emails to the FBI.

A review of the information you provided revealed
that you are being approached over the Internet to
participate in one of many variations of an
advance fee scheme being perpetrated by
individuals from various West African nations,
particularly Nigeria. Victims have lost
substantial funds in the past and all requests for
travel to foreign locations should be ignored.
The United States Secret Service (USSS) has
developed an excellent, detailed description of
this fraud scheme, which can be accessed at
http://www.secretservice.gov/alert419.shtml. If
you have been victimized by one of these schemes,
please forward appropriate written documentation
to the USSS, Financial Crimes Division, 950 H
Street, NW, Washington, D.C. 20223, or telephone
(202) 406-5850. We encourage you to share this Web
page with family and friends. Your continued
cooperation in this and other matters is greatly
appreciated.

You do not need to forward the emails to us.
Also, if you know that you are receiving Spam
mail, it is advisable not to open the mail because
your email address will be validated by the sender
even if you don’t reply to the email.

For your information, the Internet Tip Line (ITL)
was created on 9/11/01, in response to the
terrorist attacks upon America. We quickly
established a mechanism for the public to submit
information to the FBI via the Internet, and we
received our first tip at 10:31 AM that first day.
Director Mueller has since made the ITL a
permanent part of FBI
operations, and we have thus far received over
700,000 tips from around the globe, from which
thousands of leads have been sent to FBI Field and
Legal Attaché offices for action.

Initially, almost 100% of the tips received were
related to the terrorist attacks; however, now
approximately 45% of all tips received are related
to almost every other FBI criminal program, e.g.,
drug trafficking, organized crime, money
laundering, pyramid schemes, child pornography,
fugitives, bank robbery.

Our operation is completely automated and
paperless. Submitted tips are received
immediately, reviewed within minutes and
prioritized by trained Professional Support
personnel, and action leads are set by Agents
within the hour, as appropriate.

I encourage you to share this information with
your family, friends, and co-workers, and
encourage them to not hesitate to submit
information they may deem of interest to the FBI.
Again, thank you for taking the time to forward
this report to us.

IMPORTANT – NOTE THE FOLLOWING:

The FBI does not maintain an email address to
submit information or attachments to directly;
therefore, please do not reply directly to this
message via your email client. The FBI maintains
an automated system that is designed to track all
information received to ensure that all tips are
addressed in a timely and efficient manner.
Therefore, please visit the FBI.GOV Web site again
should you have occasion to submit additional
information. We WILL NOT open or respond to
“reply” email.

Sincerely,

David N. Rushing/grs
Supervisory Special Agent
FBI Headquarters
Washington, D.C.
