I got this earlier and at first i found it amusing but after a while it began to make me angry. Look how this is worded, this borders on being worth reporting to the fraud department. These people are vile, evil and just nasty

That's awful mate, you should report it and you have the f***ers name too!

Best not try anything funny then.
Other than posting this for us to chuckle at of course.

You'd think these people would be able to find someone with a decent grasp of the english language to proof read things like this; otherwise it's just being lazy!

Report it!

Please tell me people do not fall for this!

Gooooooooooooooooooooooooooood morning, madame.

But Mr Stephen you have won 1000 Ugandon dollars sir ! how would you like the monies paid ?

I get loads of these every day. It is standard spam and not so much as new scam as a long term nuisance. Just ignore them as they are not worth the time. I really doubt that they have put their real name in there and you'll get no where reporting it because it wont/can't get as far as tracing them.

Just delete them. Adding them to your spam filter wont help much as the email address is probably spoofed and they'll have a different reply address (that's the one that needs to be added to the spam filter but they change them too often for it to matter much).

Replying to them will bring you more spam as they then know your email address is valid and in use.

Shocking stuff, but I'm guessing the fact that these emails keep doing the rounds is because there is someone out there biting?

I love it when i get change your online banking passwords and details e-mails from banks im not even with lol

It's a numbers game for the offenders. They can email millions of people at the touch of a few buttons and it is highly likely that there are enough valid email addresses within the randomly generated list and within those valid email, people gullible/mad/desperate enough to respond.

According the the Stats on the Email Scanner I look after, 59% of the email our company receives is stopped as Spam. Which is significantly down after a botnet network was shut down recently from the monthly average of 89%!
