SPAM!

[George]

There's a site (forgot the name) that's dedicated to fucking with these scammers, the Nigerian ones in particular. You'd be surprised how much personal information they are willing to give up and how much trouble they will go to through if they suspect you are actually willing to give them money... Some of them are hilarious. I will try to find a link when i get home 

Scary stuff. I don't know people involved in scams like this can live happily (do they!?). Most of us get up each day, head out for a hard day at work and return home for some rest and relaxation. And then there's the scammers. How on earth do they sleep at night, knowing they're pretty much just ruining peoples lives? I really don't know.

Once in a blue moon, "Microsoft" phone me up informing me that there's a problem with my computer and that they need urgent access. In the past I've screwed with the operator on the other end requesting more information, knowing full well what their game is. They just read from a script and it renders them speechless.

Sadly people do sometimes fall for such scams
