Interesting Theory, So you're proposing that witches from medieval days decided to gain revenge upon the masses by using these unholy scams, I always suspected that there was some evil afoot when people fell for these. Very interesting

You need to read the 'raw' message to get the headers and see where it really came from. Then report this to BOTH the service listed for the contact address and the service it actually came from. I've been getting these for months now. Someone or other got my email and added it to a list apparently passed among several scammers. 419 scams (need to recover money from some account in Nigeria), 'Inheritance with no known heir' scams, 'European lottery' scams, and several other creative variations. Many of them using Yahoo email addresses for the contact. I always, always report them to Yahoo because Yahoo is very quick and direct about shutting them down. I hope they are also referred to relevant law agencies, but I don't know for certain about that. And if I can figure out the point of origin I report the scam there as well. Problem is, many of these scammers use 'webmail' services, meaning there is no 'account' to terminate.

It is now December. I get to collect the yearly $500.00 I "Won" at the lottery. It is $10 for each week that I did NOT buy lottery tickets! It is tax free as well!

The best way to double your money is fold it and put it back in your pocket.
