Surely anybody that isn't too savvy could fall for it?

I fell for it. Please send me much money so I can pay my bills I incurred trying to get $11,000.000.00

I wonder if these types of spammers (as opposed to certain medications) realise what they're doing?

It actually angers me a little. I have never fallen for such idiotic scams, but the total ignorance and greed of it all bothers me.

Of course they have. I can't remember which show it was but many old people fell for lottery scam emails, phishing websites and the like.

As did a lot of not so " old " people, as I recall, some were also not female, would you believe?

My Dad used to fall for those "you've been chosen to win £1,000,000" letters and we always ended up with a pile of useless subsriptions to magazines.

Registering for the mail preference service (can't remember if that's what it's called) seemed to work. Too bad can't quite do the same with email.

My mum would easily fall for these sorts of things (oops, I'd better lie and say my dad too, to keep Inactive happy!), I'm constantly having to warn her off them.

What's become of the FBI, perhaps it's the crunch.
