My father is one of the best farmers in our country and because he did not support Mugabes ideas, Mugabes supporters invaded my fathers farm and burnt everything in the farm, killed my father and made away a lot of items in my fathers farm.

Before his death, my father had deposited with one of the prime bank in Abidjan in Cote d'Ivoire the sum of US$7.5[Seven million five hundred thousand United state Dollars ) After the burial of my father, Idecided to move to the Republic of Cote D,Ivoire for my safety,to verified the existance of the money and to look for honest and trustworthy person who will assist me to retrieve the money from the bank in cote d' ivoire ;He deposited the money in the bank with my name as next of kin to the money for investment purpose.

Don't reply. My mate did and they plagued him for weeks.

She sounds lovely. You should write back to her. It could be the beginning of something really meaningful once she gets though the pickle she is in.

Ha I must get about 10 of these a month. All from Nigeria, all from God fearing folk and all con artists. Biggy's right, I was tempted to reply with 'Bollox' but I've heard that once they know it's a valid email address they'll bombard you.

DELETE. DELETE. DELETE.

Now that's not completely correct now is it? Where did I say 'always'?

deleted it straight away

My dad is called ROCKET PRICK and he has loads of money that he wants to share with you.Please just give me your details on the back of a duster and i will make you a rich man.He would ask you himself but he has fallen off his surf board again. I thank you kind sir Little Shed

Was just reading an article in the newspaper of a guy from Wigan who decided to get back at the Nigerian Scammers, this is his website.

http://www.419eater.com/html/trophy_room.htm

Quite a good laugh

i love that 419 eater website! i first heard about it on a TV documentary a few years back and i linked the site on here then when comrade posted a similar e-mail he'd received. i'd love to pursue these people who send the e-mails to me in the same way but i've neither the guts nor the cunning.

Woodsy, is that the site where people wind these wankers up?

If so

I seen some of their work, fucking priceless...one guy exchanged about 50 emails, and even snail mails with this scammer, even got the guy to send a copy of his passport and all. remember these scumbags are stupid enough to think foilks will fall for these, so if you pretend to do so, they swallow, hook line and sinker.

All spammers should by rights be treated this way, it is esteimated that if people replied to 10% of their spam, the smappers machines would bukckle under the replies and they'd give up.

Recently I've been gettinng "delivery status notification error" mails from funny addresses. I honestly do not know if some cunt is sending spam with a slightlynarrow return address, or if the failure notices are phishing for me to reply to validate my address.

I wonder how many of us got this one?

The first time they directly attribute NOOL.

Yeah, I got this one today as well. At least shes a New Order fan!!!

I must get at least one of these a day - both on private email and work email; delete them straight away and empty your recycle regularly.

That was sensible mode.

Anyone needs any viagra; I get loads of special offers for that too!

Ask her if she wants to chip in towards Blue Saturday!!!

Had loads of them,all from Africa,all promising a pot of gold.Fuck em off Jack!

Yeah, the wind-up was excellent - I think it was featured on a recent Graham Norton show? Anyway, what they did was to ask for photographic evidence of the people sending the mails, with them holding up signs that they'd requested them to write...

One of them said "I Can't Believe It's Not Butter"!

Edit: I've found it!

I've started get them through the post as well!

And the phone!

Ex-directory and all the 'filters' my arse. I have a speech rehearsed now. drives me nuts.

I've read in the paper that they come 'round to your place and threaten you with guns and whatnot once they know where you live...

You sure that was'nt Cozzie's Dad,comrade?

I've never had any come round with shooters,and I invariably reply with "get a grip" or "love to,knobjockey" or something....

Hang on ther'es a man at the window waving a Gun.

If it's Cozzie's old fella,I'm sending him round yours Comrade

Just be sure to tell him I'm the bloke in the dented van, known for flogging my nuts all over London.

Sure thing Commy,I'll tell him now

He just said"I'll flog his fuckin nuts,alright!" :mad4:

got the same email. Just wired some cash.hey, why not?

The latest thing I've been getting is stupid stock tips. The idea is that some people follow the tips, buy the stock which raises the price by a few pennies and the spammers sell for a profit.

The amount of spam sent is so huge that they only need a very small response rate to make it worth while.

I get at least 50 spam emails a day, about half to my NOOL address. It's a proper pain in the arse deleting them all and more than once I've deleted things I wanted to read by mistake. Email to my own domain is effectively useless.

On the plus side, I can use it as an excuse for not replying to GlasVegas

I was plagued by those. Someone has harvested your @slightly narrow.whatever address from a website where it was on display and is using it to send spam by just putting a different name infront of the @.

I had a dig through my ISP's page about e-mail and managed to find an option to 'disable Delivery Status Notification messages' which has taken a great weight off my inbox.

yeah i put a delivery status failure bounce back on all my chrissmari.org accounts other than chrissy@ and it's really helped the spam.

Awww, I feel really left out that no Nigerians want to make me extremely wealthy...

You can have mine. In fact, I'll reply to their emails in your name.

But I'd better hurry, so many of them are dieing of cancer, and the rest are either orphans trying to spirit their da's fortunes out of the country, or they're oil ministry officials who desperately need my help--- well, your help now.

Ahhh, speak of the devil, here's one now for you, Snorri. I'll reply on your behalf forthwith (No, no, my good man, no need to thank me!)...

Attn: Friend,

Greeting!

I humbly crave your indulgence in sending you this mail,if the contents does not meet with your personal and business ethics,I appologise in advance. this is by virtue of its nature as being utterly "CONFIDENTIAL AND TOP SECRET". Though I know that a transaction of this magnitude will make any one apprehensive and worried, but I am assuring you that all will be well at the end of the day.

I have decided to contact you due to the urgency of this transaction, as I have been reliable informed of your discreteness and ability in transaction of this nature. Let me start first, introduce myself properly to you.I am Mr. Martin Jones, of Dept of Bill and Exchange with African Development Bank. I need your consent to handle this transaction because it entails large amount of funds($6.5 Million Dollars) deposited by a deceased customer in our bank who died long time ago but has an open beneficiary mandate on his file though, there has not been anyone from his family to make claim of this funds but i am sure he has no immediate family because i have tried all i could to contact them but to no avail.

THE PROPOSITION:

I wish to know if we can work together.I would like you to stand as next of kin to my deceased client, who was among the people that lost their life in Egypt air crash 990 ,some 8 years ago with the wife.

http://news.bbc. co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/502503.stm

He made some deposits to my bank, and died without any registered next of kin and as such the funds now have an open beneficiary mandate.More over it appears you are related to him by the virtue of your names.

If you are interested you do let me know so that I can give you comprehensive details on what we are to do.

I urgently hope to get your response

Best regards,

Martin Jones.

I get these weekly from our African friends. Didnt read it was anything to do with NOOL. This reminds me of all the classic letters one used to get from Nigeria in the eighties.

I did email one back saying i could send a bag of rice, but no response

Edit: Actually there was an article in the Evening Standard recently about a bloke who had asked all these people to take and email a current photo of themselves holding a card, with a message decided by the receiver of the email (i.e. the attempted con). This was done to prove 'authenticity' The result was pictures of Africans holding up white cards with nasty messages on them. I can't remember the exact wording but they were along the lines of 'Hi, I'm a Conman C___'

I added an extra word there for comic effect.

Problem is, my mail is all done locally. I suppose that makes it easier in a way, but it means manuals instead of brightly coloured diagrams on help pages

I supose I could just set a local filter to stick "failure" messages in the bin.

We get em in work smoetimes, I like to play....

"Dear sir, you have sent unsolicited "spam" mail, proposing a clearly fraudulant transaction, to a secure UK govt. Facility, your mail, name, and IP address, as well as your exact location in Nigeria, have been passed along to the Brittish intelligence services ( QUIET AT THE BACK THERE!), who will no doubt persue this matter vigourously.

Not so funny is mails we get from guys who are just checking with s before they send some random chick (hugely inflated sums of) money for her "UK passport" to get out of Nigeria to come and live happily ever after with them. I don't like breaking hearts.

You need to Google Odette Amah for a laugh, her name crops up all over trying this scam, Christian sites - the lot.

Anyway, would you?
