Yep, cash is better. Of course, I think I’ll just let this one pass. That’s one “Wang” that’s not so “Lucky” this time.

Ooh, you’re a little bit naughty — I like it!

Actually, there’s a site that talks about doing just that — leading the scammers on. I’ve got a link to it in my “Fun Favourites” in the 1st sidebar — it says “Welcome to the 419 Eater”.

Congrats Moosie, you join the happy joy luck club

I guess it could be worse- at least the prize is an imaginary cash reward- worse yet if they gave you an actual Suzuki – crap bikes, crap ATVs – total money black holes.

It’s fun to reply to these, using an alternative email address and name. I lead a woman who was dying of cancer in Nigeria, but who wanted her millions of dallars to go to ME, because the internet said I was a good person. I had them going for about 6 weeks before I got tired of it. I even got them to send 2 overseas faxes to a free fax service (free for me, but THEY had to pay the long distance chanrges.

Yes, and the sender’s email was from China. Plus these scammers need to hire some native English-speakers to write their stuff.
