    LOL... You had me going there a for a second I_A. I actually had a feeling of joy when I saw you post ;)

    Its amazing but people do still fall for this type of thing. I read a story in the Mail last Sunday about a fella who had run up £20,000 in loans as he "fell in love" with someone on the internet and sent them cash and waited at airport. Of couse they never turned up and the cash dissapeared.

    He said he would stick to dating local girls in future :rotfl:
    I read this story too I think it happened to him twice............

    So...is the english always this bad because it's foreign spammers, or is it people going "well, we want them to believe we're foreign, so let's put some crap SPAG in it"...Can never decide.

    It just seems a poor effort if that's really the best they can do...
