I've heard of these scam artists on 8 Out Of 10 Cats. It's really quite funny. They put up pictures of what revenge tricksters did to the spammers. They sent an e-mail back, requesting that to proov who they were, they had to have a picture of themselves, with a sign that had a particular code word (which turned out to be insulting to the spammer).
The funniest part is, they actually did pose, with the signs too! Bwahahahahaha

| Thing is, Quite a lot of Spammers are something called Bots. What bots do is they copy one message and then spam it out to random email adresses. Then, When you open that letter, It just invites more as that spam is just checking to see if your email adress is a valid email adress or something. |
It usually checks to see if the email address is still used by someone. It's easy to check if an email address exists though, just try to send an email to a non existant one and you get something back telling you it doesn't exist. Another word for a bot is a macro, macros are awesome if you don't abuse them.

Success! He emailled me back! Here's his response:
| Quote: |
Thanks for the quick reply to my mail. Firstly,I will like to know of what nationality you are and what kind of business you are into and also find out whether you are capable of recieving the amount of money and keeping it savely.
As a matter of urgency, supply me with the following details of your's
(1)FULL NAME AND ADDRESS
(2) TELEPHONE AND FAX NUMBERS
(3) YOUR BANK ACCOUNT DETAILS
(4) ANY MEAN OF IDENTIFICATION (ATTACHED AND SEND TO MY MAIL BOX.
Please be informed that absolute confidentaility is required all through the period of this transaction.
As soon as I get these details from you, I will forward the details to the paying Bank that will effect the transfer. Also I have to direct you to the lawyer that will get a letter of authorization on your behalf from our court of justice as the bona- fide beneficairy of the money in question.
We have to secure an anti-drug law and anti- terrorism certificates before the final transfer.
Call me as soon as you recieve this mail on my direct mobile phone number ((Numer Removed So None Of You Lot Call Him))
Thanks once again and have a wonderful day.
Regards,
Mr. Suleman Omani |
Woah, slow down Mr. Suleman, I thought it was customary to buy me a drink before you try and screw me over! He's moving too fast for my liking, I like to get to know a person before I give out my bank details and allow them to rob me of my life savings. Also, why do we have to have certificates to show we're involved in anti-drug laws? I would have though high people would be more suggestible to Suleman's antics. I sent the following response in hope to allow us to get to know each other a little better, please note that the spelling mistakes are intentional:

Dear Suleman Okapi,
Thank you also for the quick reply, although your fast moving response surprised me like a train rattling through a station platform and sucking a small child into the wheels. I notice you are from New Zealand from your co.nz extension cord. I did not realise your country Liberia resided within New Zealand, and I hope that you gain liberation from your Zealandish oppressors very soon. I am from Great Baitain, and as such, I know little of the outside world.
Also, I did not think this transaction would move so fast, as I thought you may need some more time to get to know me, afterall, you are giving all of your government's money to me! Here are a few facts about me to help you trust me:
1) My favourite colour is blue
2) I live close to a chip shop
3) There is a mole on my back that itches sometimes, but I daren't scratch it too hard in case I scratch the head off and make it bleed too much.
I do hope that this personal information will show you just how geniunely (sp?) I want this scheme to go ahead.
As for the details you asked for, you already know my full name as you addressed me by it in the earlier email, my address is Beagle Street, Humphrey-Upon-Wells, number 92, Chesshire. I have no fax number because my brother stole the machine for faxes, claiming that he needed it in case someone needed to send him paper. He did a similar thing with my telephone, but there is a hairy man coming to reconnect our service before the next full moon and give me new phones, so once he has come I shall let you know my phoning number.
The bank is closed today as Bank Holiday Friday is somewhat of a jubilant festival here, so I shall get to the bank as soon as possible and I shall say "Give me the details for Liberia!" and get the information you need.
Please let me know what Identification I can send to your mail box. I tried to scan my passport, but it was too shiny and the resulting image was like a nuclear explosion (Sorry, I hope nuclear explosions don't offend your war-torn country), so is there any alternative? I could give you my mother's maiden name, or a list of my pets if these help to identify me. Would a photo suffice? I have plenty of photos from the Jug Festival, although on most of the pictures I have a jug on my head/arms/crotch. I think there is one where I look relatively sober, so I shall try and find it for you.
Please give me some more input on this, I am looking forward to making business noises with your face.
Thank you |
If he replies, he really is stupid. I think I pushed it a little far and he'll realise I'm not serious, so here's hoping he's desperate enough to liberate his country to place his money in the hands a raving fool.

I think he will know you overstepped the mark otherwise he is as thick as two very thick, sturdy bricks. Why bricks? Well, why not bricks. I think he should just reply so he gets the jug festival pictures. If he does just get some random person at a festival from google and affix a jug over their faces.

I might just do that. If he responds a second time, I shall also make it my aim to get him to send a photo of himself.
