I guess there are naive people out there that fall for these scams other wise they wouldn't exist. But man how stupid do they think we are.
To bad you couldn't give them all the info of our prez. I'm sure he could use that $$ for his re-election.

Never saw one of those emails before.

I usually get some rich widow, or a Nigerian who wants to share her wealth with me. Nothing as cool as being dead..... You hit the jackpot, man !


I have a neighbor, whom I consider dead to me, although he still stumbles around his yard after downing enough booze to kill a horse or two.
