    I won on the 25th of July and it takes them 10 days to contact me about my winnings?

    What sort of organization are they running there?

    Bit confused as to why an British organisation using the American spelling and currency...no matter, now to send them a cheque and collect my winnings.

    Scam? What scam? Hank, I'd go for the $350 delivery option, middle of the road.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 22,559 ✭✭✭✭AnonoBoy


    1. Post the text from the scam email you got
    2. Post a message with it saying you're thinking of sending them the money
    3. Await hilarious responses


    Must we go through this same tired old thread every time somebody gets a scam email? :rolleyes:

    email them back and tell them to take 100 grand out of winnings and send the rest to you by a golden covered carrier pigeon.

    Sorry, I just thought it was rather amusing.

    Unlike your post.

    Reply with goatse twice per day from different addresses for the next three years.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,852 ✭✭✭homer simpson


    You may find this site usefull.... http://www.419eater.com/


    The problem is that once you reply to one you will get a few every day from then on in, so this site was set up, basiclly you try and get their bank account details for the purpose of transfering the "delivery money" for your cheque, and when you get their bank acc details you PM one on the main guys on the site (forget his name) who works / knows someone who works for an agency who deals with these scammers, and gets their bank acc froze and they are investigated :D

    Its great craic its like a big game, for every scammers acc details you get you get to a piggy bank added to your sig! It feels good scamming the scammer too, but some of them are very smart and its sometimes takes a lot of tooin and frooing before they give their details up (if at all) but its all good craic, well i think so anyhoodles! :cool:

    I'm not putting you down. Just bored of every day someone posting a spam message they received in the same manner as if it's new or funny.

    It's not really. It's tired and boring.

    I'm sorry if your delicate feelings were hurt.

    I'll be sure to bow down to your amazing original threads when I see them.

    What a great guy...

    5 threads about scams in the past 3 months?
    That is indeed an onslaught of threads on the subject...

    Why don't you go count up the anti-Ireland threads...

    Reply to them and suggest that they take the postage and any other charges ..out of your winnings ..and that you being a generous person would also suggest that they take something small for themselves for their help.

    Cheers
