    Even though we all know this is a scam - I still can't believe there are people that would participate in defrauding a bank (that is what the letter implies). Why don't they just put in plain english "Will you help me rob a bank?" :mad: I see stupid people :doh: Steve

I see reports of people having responded to this kind of thing occasionally on consumer programmes saying things like "It all looked so genuine and sincere"... Camera zooms in to initial email or letter that is loaded with basic spelling mistakes and gramatical errors that an 8 year old wouldn't even make. Well I say: No, it is most obviously not genuine, you are obviously a greedy [insert profanity of choice here] and you got what you deserved.

                  That's a brilliant idea Marc!! I know you were joking, but if a ring was organised of people to use remailers to do this sort of thing, 419ers and some other email abusers could be blown out of the cyber-water. Regardz Colin J Davies
