:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: If I had a pound for every $million I've won with these type of emails...

There was a question on The Chase about this last week (I think). It's called something like "a 401". Can't quite remember.

What worries me the most is what happens one day if one of us really does win a huge amount, and we delete the email thinking it's a scam :eek:

Thanks Hammy fan. I'm sure you're right and it was a 419. That site is so interesting. I think they're brave doing the scam-baiting thing. I would be a bit nervous. Not only because I don't want to communicate with them in case they send more scams/junk, but also, they are criminals, so I'd be a bit worried what they might do - wot a wimp.
