Yeah, that's it. :R
I remember it was something close to that, been a long time since I've seen any 3 Stooges.


All I need to do is to go to work. We have several Stooges. :thinking: :lol:

If you really want to learn how to have some fun with these scammers you can go here 419 eaters and see how it's done. They will get you started on your way to scamming the scammers!! :lol: :lol:

It really is something to read what they get these guys to do, not necessarily for the squeamish or weak at heart tho. 8)

I'm just a member there, not advertising for them, just a little info for you.

They seem to be having a little trouble with their forum right now so if you're interested you might want to bookmark it and try it in a few days.

A few words of warning tho.....you can waste a lot of time there reading the safaris they send these guys on!!! Kinda like here, it can really shorten your day!! :lol: :lol:

I'm signed on over there too, but I mostly just lurk. Like you said...it definitely makes the day short!

:thinking: Rob, I don't want any of your money, what I would like is for you to deposit it in an savings account with interest and let me have the interest. You specify the time, anything over a day would be a big plus for me, a couple of weeks I could buy a new car, 3 or 4 months a nice house 8) Thanks Bob :lol: :lol: :lol:

I have been receiving those scam emails for several years. Some days I get 5 or 6.

Kate often hears me in the home office saying'.

"Can you pick up some coffee while you're at the grocery store?... Oh by the way.... I just won another 3 million".

I can't believe there are people who actually fall for those scams! I guess P.T. Barnum was right - there's one born every minute!

I don't know how American Greetings and Frito Lay can lay claim to money that isn't theirs.

Really sad that a judge needs to "decide" who the money belongs to... :shock:

I think that thing may be totally bogus.

Unlike the email I got from Uganda which informed me that there's around$25 million coming to me from some Jewish tribe that Idi Amin massacred.

All I have to do is send 99 bucks to claim it, and I did this math:

99 bucks is a lot less than $25 million, so what have I got to lose?

I've the chance to sell my Harbor Freight axles many many times. I saw a news piece several years ago where the buying scams were uncovered and I'm surprised that thery are still trying.

I used to send a complimentary (two word) :twisted: greeting back but I can't keep up anymore. :o
