Re: post your 419 emails here!
Wow, I just got one of those calls.
They: (heavy Indian, Pakistani, or Middle Eastern accent) "Hello this is Marvin with the IT department of Bank of America. I'm calling in regard to your computer."
Me: "What, I don't understand."
They: (speaking more slowly) "This is Marvin with the IT deparment of Bank of American. I am calling in regard to your computer."
Me: "I don't understand. What do you want."
They: (growing impatient) "I'm calling in regard to your computer."
Me: "I don't even have a computer."
They: (incredulous) "You don't have a computer?"
Me: "No. Don't believe in 'em."
They: (hang up)

Re: post your 419 emails here!
As if addressing the concerns from my last scam email, this one spelled out the dollar amount...
from "admin@national-lottery.co.uk"
Your Lottery Golden Metal Trunk Box has now arrived in JFK Airport New York...Please contact Mr. Nokia Lopez.
Quote:
My Name is Wreele Douglas. An FBI Agent. I am a contract staff currently attached to the verification department of the Camelot Group of the Online National Lottery mainly for non UK citizens. Your winning check of $4,306,515 (Four Million, three hundred and six thousand, five hundred and fifteen United States Dollars only) was about to expire due to your inability to travel to our office in London as the Lottery rules and regulations demanded. However, I managed to convert the check to cash in a Golden Metal Trunk Box because it was the only way to circumvent you from losing your life time opportunity.
To avoid multiple taxations and the bank charges as overdue and unclaimed lottery fund, I have successfully dispatched your golden metal box with Reg# UK8100FR through cargo and the golden metal box has arrived JFK International airport cargo unit, and has passed through custom checks.
The golden metal box is now at the airport storage facility at the cost of $25 dollars daily. Every documentation and process is legitimate because it is a lottery winning fund. Please kindly make sure you contact Mr. Nokia Lopez on (212) xxx-xxxx and email ( jfk_cargounit@xxx.xxx ). I have done everything to make sure you receive your winning. Please call the officer's number below for a verification and QUICK process.

Re: post your 419 emails here!
Waiting to hear back from you.
Hon. Barrister B. Agossa <joe@lighting-bright.com>
Quote:
Dear friend,
A foreign client of mine who shared the same surname with you on June 2003 made a fixed deposit of $9,500,000.00 (Nine Million, Five Hundred Thousand Dollars Only) with a bank here in Benin in standing agreement with the bank that all correspondence in respect to the fixed deposit contract will be sent him through my chamber. Upon maturity, the routine notification was sent to me, which I dispatched to his forwarding address as usual without a reply.
After a month, I sent a reminder which I received from the bank without any reply again. Finally, I discovered from my client's contract employee that he died with his family in the Benin Republic December 26, 2003 plane crash. He died without making a WILL and all attempts to trace his relatives were fruitless.
So, I seek your consent to present you to his bank as the next of kin based on the information I received recently from his banker reminding me that BENINESE LAW states that at the expiration of fourteen (14) years the money will be reverted to the ownership of the BENINESE Government if I do not confirm the next of kin to claim the fund.
Consequently, my proposal is that I will like you as a foreigner to stand in as the next of kin to my deceased client since you share the same surname with him so that the fruits of this man's labor will not go into the hands of some corrupt government officials.
Note that this transaction is simple and risk free because I will provide expert and legal advice that will guarantee the successful execution of this deal. If you are interested, please contact me as soon as possible; I shall provide you with more details and how we shall proceed with the claims. I expect you to observe utmost confidentiality and be rest assured that this transaction will be profitable for both of us. Thanks as I wait for your reply.
Best regards,
Hon. Barrister B. Agossa

Re: post your 419 emails here!
Yesterday, I won a huge prize in a Facebook promotion, according to Facebook Coordinator Frances Nesbitt and Founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg. Now I await Mr. Zuckerberg's phone call, as I asked Frances to have him call me. My phone number is set in Facebook to be seen only by me, but Mark Zuckerberg should be able to access that information.
I will remain patient, I'm sure Mr. Zuckerberg is a busy man.

In case y'all have ever wondered and didn't happen to read The Improbability Principle: Why Coincidences, Miracles, and Rare Events Happen Every Day, I mean.
You'd think they'd have a better shot if they pretended to be from somewhere else, at least...right? Nope. People can spot scams pretty easily, so what they're after are the people who can't. How do they make those people self-sort for them? They basically announce UP FRONT that this is a WELL-KNOWN SCAM without saying as much. The idiots who follow up tend to be pretty gullible, but they still have only about 1 in 20 takers or something like that.
This means that the best way to fuck with them is not to report them but to respond to them and lead them on. Better yet...write bots to do that on thousands of clones. Yessssss.
Back to your regular programming.
