    If you fell for that or anything like it, I have a hard time feeling sorry for you.

    Unfortunately there are people who do.
    Those scammers zero in on that common human trait known as greed.

    Omg....that has to be the most ridiculous one yet. Pom is right, they do need English and Spelling lessons. We get that income tax scam by phone, and always by someone you can't understand. Most people don't fall for these scams but some people just don't seem to get it. Seniors are also a very vulnerable group and I feel sorry for them. It just never stops does it, unless every single person they contact ignores them or like someone mentioned...a brick on the head...idiots.

    Dear Friend.

    My name is Richard and I live in California, Los Angeles. I hope you can help me.

    I would love to get high

    and need 430 dollars to do so.

    If you send me 430 dollars US I would be able to take a trip on a real B-17 aeroplane. This is one of my life dreams. I will take pictures for you.

    Thanks.

    We're not falling for that one fella.
    You're really a Nigerian posing as Richard.
    Your IP addy has just been sent to the FBI.
    You are surrounded, give yourself up peacefully.
