What the heck is a kappa-slapper!?

Kappa: A brand of so called "sportswear" that churns out nasty shell-suits by the million.
Slapper: "****" or "Slag" would be the closest translation I could provide, but it's imprecise at best. The fact that it derives from "Slap", a colloquial term for "make-up" gives you better picture of what is implied.
Kapp-slapper: I'd never heard this term before reading it on the linked page but it is so incredibly evocative I can picture precisely what the author meant:
Imagine an underweight, chain-smoking, ignorant, foul-mouthed, aggressively-defensive young woman with poorly-concealed acne and her hair gelled flat down onto her cranium. Put her in a white Kappa shellsuit, and adorn her with lots of nasty gold jewelry. Imagine for her a similarly-attired boyfriend (let's call him Wayne). Wayne owns a baseball cap and a Ford Escort with the suspension dropped, muffler removed and a disproportionately large sound system. Typically these two would live on a council-estate or coucil-run tower block somewhere. They have a child together, whose name (or so it would seem) is "Shut the [censored] up you little [censored] or I'll [censored] smack you again." This child has a series of elder siblings (by different Waynes) named "Stop screaming you little bastard or the social workers will take you away", "for the last time, [censored] PUT THAT DOWN!" and so on.
Vicky Pollard from "Little Britain" is a pretty good rendition of a proto-kappa-slapper. Look her up, or better yet download an episode or two from somewhere. (Verrrry funny stuff.) Alternatively, google for definitions of "Chav" or "Chavette". That's fairly close.
I'm going to shut up now, before I say anything else to reveal myself as an elitist, middle-class snob.
Re: Scamming the Scammer
that's also something I would do to the bastard.
Its called an wooden baseball bat with metal spikes!
