I have decided to have a little play.Set up another email at yahoo and replied to email telling them that I have a 2002 L/C. Sure enough back comes the email telling me that they will send a cheque for $9000 and that I only have to send them $7000. Need name address etc before we can do this. Righto, back goes a bodgy name old analogue ph no and the address of the C/park we are staying in.
Will update as things progress.If I remember things rightly I should get a cheque from a non existent bank account in the near future.
Stay tuned for the next exciting episode ofbleeps of the World

If you do a search on this
forum back say..... 3 - 4 months, there was a thread pertaining to this sort of thing.
One guy posted a link. This link is a web page of a pommy guy, who...... get this...... scams scammers!
This site is priceless!!
There is heaps of WAV's, and general stuff, photo's.......... it is an excellent bit of work.
Anyway, I have seen my daughter go thru this, as I have said on here before. I just stood back, and let her take it all, I call it....learning.
Have a search for the pommies site, it will set you up possibly better than you had thought.

Yes, Truckster posted a link to that site earlier today. I spend a good hour or so enjoying the stories on there. All the while shaking my head about how gullible some people must be to actually get involed with these people!
