Hi, Bev!
Why does tomorrow have to be Monday? Off to bed. Stupid having to work to make money thing.
Today I sent a really nasty reply to a Nigerian scammer. The scam email went on at length about the blessings of the lord and I retorted with "how dare you prey upon the gullible in the name of the lord? Any money you get out of this is damned- as are you." or some such. And I'm an atheist! I wonder why I went off like that. I must be really mad about something.
Laga, have you ever seen [link] That guy wrote some great replies. Oh, and I'm like Spike right now: I just realized what I want from the disability-rights movement is "a little less ritual and a little more fun." And I love blooming onions, too.
I'm not sure that link is right. It says "coming soon" with a bunch of links.
I used to love the blooming onions until one fateful evening of drinks and appetizers.
Oh, really? Guess it's been a while since I've been there, but this guy started writing back to all his spammers. Some of the responses were really off-the hook, too. Jonathan Something. Yeah, I can see how that might happen.
You can find all sorts of interesting stories by googling "scam bait" My favorite was the guys who actually got their scammers to act out (and film!) a version of the "Dead Parrot" sketch from Monty Python. I would find the link for you but I can't access YouTube from work. Searching for "scam dead parrot" would probably pay off.
I think another "scam-baiter" got the scammer to carve and mail him a sculpture of an ipod.
really?
That was from memory. He actually got two carvings - one of "Trixie and Captain Cuddlepuss" and the other of a Commodore 64 keyboard. How my memory turned that last into an Ipod I don't know.
Here is the link: [link]
It seems mean, but on the other this type of email scam is not neccesarily non-violent. If scammers find someone stupid enough they will lure them into personal contact and beat them up or kill them.

Heh. That Jonathan inspired my other friend Jon to start a similar campaign. He had the best time spamming the spammers.
