yup...totally real im sure :D out of all the scam emails ive had so far this one has to be the best, still to obviously a scam but stillll heh

so anyone else had fun scamming emails?

Ugh I have had a ton of email like that. I always respond and ask them all kinds of questions, they keep responding and then give up because they know I'm on to them. The sad thing is that a lot of people fall for those kinds of things and get their whole life savings taken.

Lawls. Those emails are so stupid. And its sad that people fall for them.

I saw a thingy on Dateline about those kind of emails before.

Wow, I can't believe people would actually spend time writing this...for what? to get a few kicks out of it and to see how many people would fall for this? maybe if you contacted her, she would have asked for your bank information or something... I don't know how the transferring works. I've gotten a few pms on gaia saying that they were part of the administration and saying that my account has been hacked so to get it back I have to give them my password. I've never received anything like this though... But yesterday I got a call and this robotic voice message tells me I won this cruise to Cuba and they told me to press 9 to confirm or to press 8 to draw myself from the list. I just hung up. My dad said that if I pressed 9, a few days later i would receive a crazy phone bill... :)

Dare received a PM like that from another user a while back!

i seriously can't believe that some people are dumb enough to be taken in by stuff like that :roll:

Ha ha I would have been like "What kind of crap forwards are they send now." :Keoko hates forwards with a passion:

Well at least you didn't fall for the scam. If I don't know the person sending me the E-mail I delete right away :3 I personally don't care for e-mail I prefer IM.
I would often get E-mails from the "Gaian Admin" saying that I had won 18k and a item off my wishlist. I just needed my password and username. I had to fight the urge to not to fill in the forum with evil responses. But I held onto my niceness and simply deleted it.

Silly people :roll:

Heh. "fasting and prayed over it..."

What a delightfully entertaining load of crap. That's a hilarious scam... it always befuddles me, however, that people exist who fall for that sort of thing.

"my father took me so special"

XD

Priceless.

I hate scams. Mostly because of the time it steals from me to actually read it. Some people really have to much time on their hands :x

Wish id saved one before from a bank, had a vert professional webpage to, phishing at its best i saw ther!

the thing is that some can soud pretty convincing.
i almost got tricked once :gold:

yeah well scammers obviously think everyone is senil or something xDD
there's to many of them scammers D: we need to stop them !

Thankfully, I have yet to receive any e-mails as stupid as that, probably because I only sign up to sites with a spare address and what not. . . My dad gets them all the time, though, particularly from Africa. Saying something about a possible family member of ours having gotten into an accident, so they need to contact the next of kin. . . xD It's rather funny how some people are so desperate for money to waste their time doing something like that, when they could be working or doing something more productive. Then again, it's even sadder how some people are stupid enough to fall for scams like that. ._.

i might have to set up a scam sometime to see how many silly people i can find :d
wont take any of their money of course hehehe sounds fun o.o im now the son of a rich business man from asbecastan!

I received a similar scam email once, I was younger at the time...and I was about to reply saying I didn't want to do business with them but I told my brother first who told me it was a scam. ^^; silly me.

I never used to get them, but lately I keep getting those ones from someone supposedly working for the Bank of Africa XD

lone, your sig made me lol-ed xDDDDD

I've not gotten one of these email before ^^ But i dont open strange emails anyway.

The most scams you will ever see from are from Nigeria.
