Re: OT: I have Won AGAIN!!!
You know AT, the telephonenumber they're giving isn't a real one. Only the 0031 (landcode) is right, the rest isn't real.
Pretty funny these things mostly originate from my beautiful country, or from Afrika. You can almost smell they're not real.
Have fun responding to this.
Edit: I'll take my money in Euro's, so that measn 500000 Euro, that is roughly 30% more than in American Dollars, hehehe.... gimme, gimme, gimme...

Re: OT: I have Won AGAIN!!!
I would just once love to run the gambit with these people and burn them. Show up at their door with a news crew and do 48 hours investigation on them. Make them look sooooooooooooooooo stupid, yes I know hipocritical given my anti media post, but still I would enjoy it.

You won't be able to get any straight answers from them, though. No street address, no legit business references. The point of the scam is to find suckers like your 'friend' who will feel the itch of unreasoning greed and send them money in the hopes of getting more money. Actually sending them money and then tracing the transaction is probably the only way you'd find them. That should be left to law agencies, though.

Re: OT: I have Won AGAIN!!!
What to do with $500,000? Put it in the bank. An extra $15,000 a year would be nice.
