Maybe they should spend more time learning how to write instead of trying to scam addresses, phone numbers and bank accounts out of clueless internet surfers?

I have noticed that the rate of Viagra/penis stimulants has dropped off. I should say "sagged" or "petered out."

Also, I don't get so many alley-cat solicitations for discount drugs any more. Thanks to some rules I wrote in my email program, I am allowing the machine to trash most of them before they even reach my monitor. Looking at the scam above, I can't find a good keyword to put in the rules that would delete these messages.

Do people REALLY respond to that crap?

Under the heading of "I can't believe I married that man" I have to admit, he believed them. I had one HELL of a time trying to convince him it was a scam. Actually, he probably ignored me and logged on some other place to "claim" his prize.

These are scams to get people's bank account and social security numbers. I agree with you, jd. They might be slightly more believable if these numb skulls could spell!I send them straight to my spam center when they manage to get past it the first time.

I hate it when you burst my bubble.

Some people do respond and I have seen them on Judge Judy being sued by a check cashing establishment or the only relative they could talk into cashing the check. The check always bounces.

Sorry to say, but people do respond to these things. I don't even bother. I read the subject line and if I don't recognize it, I don't open it. Plain and simple.
