I think i just heard about this on radio. There are a bunch of anti-spam people getting revenge on these guys. They pretended they were catholic priest and managed to get $80 from the scammers!!
As usual 'most things are too good to be true!'

I hadn't seen this one before. It is also special for me as it is the first spam email I have had on that account. All good things come to an end I guess!
At first I just deleted it, but I may just mention it to my bank manager. [:-)]
You'd think at least they would spend time getting the English right!

Does this mean we can start a 'Funniest Spam Mail' frenzy, I must admit I quite enjoy reading them. It's definitely a good idea to make sure your firewall is working properly before making humorous replies to them though.
