If you're familiar with Darwinism you might say these scammers were doing the human race a favour cos only idiots could fall for a nigerian lottery scam. The scams are obvious and stupid and even if you were in doubt you'd err on the side of caution and not take the risk. And yet some people must fall for it still or these scams would have died out. If some rich fools are parted with their money then I just laugh and say fools and their money.
Thanks for the link, I just wasted 3 hours of my time on that dang site lol. Seriously addicting though, it's good to see the torture that they inflict on these scumbags. It goes to show how far human greed can compell some people, that they'd pursue a scam for months on end.

You blew it, its real, and now you have told people you wont get the wonga. The best scams normally start with "This is not a scam" Looks like someone tried to Flangel you, i'd check you comp now just in case you opened something nasty when reading that mail. Dr.Steve Williams, ohh comeon, he is a Dr, you can trust him. You guys are just to skeptical.

No tickets were sold but they still manage to pay 500 K ... how can people still fall for BS like this, i guess they are dreaming so hard about getting a lot of money and when they finally recive an e-mail like this they go blind and nuts.

Last spam prize i won that i decided to pay some atention was from Microsoft, and i did it because i found the man who signed the letter in Facebook. I decided to invite him as a friend, which he acceptedm and then i send him a message explaining that i received an email, signed by him, which said that i won a prize. He answered me thanking for contacting and explaining he has nothing to do with the email and that someone was using his name to some kind of scam. I knew probably it was nothing, but it was nice to see that Facebook was helpful to solve this!

congrats man you are rich i remember a few years ago getting something similar- just that it was a printed letter. Came from some dude in Nigeria, and basically offering me the chance of becoming a millionaire... however i thought to myself- why the hell i need so much money and sent him an email saying that if he had offered something like 10K probably i would have taken it, but millions are not for me never heard from him more
Those e-mail are annoying and funny, the best part is that I recive some of them because I've signed up here and there, but most of them are just random f'n spam. I can't belive that it's still profitable to send that kind of e-mail, I mean who belives in that kind of crap? I think you should call them and tell 'em that you want your money at mindnight in 3rd trash can counting from your house and then you can give them all stuff that they need lol
