So have a dig in your Junk e-mail and lets see how much "money" we have been offered from these lovely people.

Here's mine since monday:

LT GENERAL JAMES MORGAN - US$10,700,000.00 (Ten Million Seven Hundred Thousand United States Dollars)
Amarjit Morrow lottery - Two Hundred and Fifty Thousand Great Britain Pounds (GBP 250,000)
Mr.Anton August Haemelinck - US$12,000,000:00(Twelve Million United State Dollars)
Martin Reyes - some employment opportunity (cheap skate)
AUS LOTTERY - US$1,500,000.00 (ONE MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS)
Barry Favour - $800,000.00 United States Dollars
Richard Lazio - yet more employment.

So from 7 mails we have a grand total of US$25,500,000 (TWENTY FIVE MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND UNITED STATES DOLLARS) oh and two jobs.

Not bad!

So any one else want to play?

Gee I didn't get rich quick like that I went for virtual reality bankruptcy just reading mine so I suppose I am in the negative but I sure could have love from the one. He kept I-Ming me that he was going to send me money from ''his client'' and all I had to do was cash it and send him half of it. I told him I don't have any bank accounts and no way to cash large sums. He kept changing stories on how he was going to send me money and send it back to him so he could come here and marry me.

It's actually a cyber-sport for some to have some fun with the emails:

Seriously that is a good site and I think we should use it as a link for people who have to ask
Is this a scam...
