Every time I get a scammy-spam where the lad uses CC instead of BCC I always send a quick note to all of the other recipients to let them know what the scoop is and refer them to scamwarners. I always end up with nice replies.

This time, I also got this:

Sounds like English run through Google translate.

I get the part where he says he doesn't have a job or money so can't send any for the fee. Then I think he says something like, I am not sure if this is a scam or legit. Then, if it is legit, send the money to my paypal account because paypal is safe and deduct $25 for the paypal fees from what you send.

Bizarre, as it was a reply to a warning about a scam. Love it when they try to scam each other!

Lads will sometimes put one of their alternate emails, or the email of the oga/partner in crime, in the "to" section. The reply could well have come from the lad or his partner.

Just remember, lads do sometimes CC their Ogas or co-scammers when mailing formats out. If you are planning on baiting the lad, I'd reccomend mailing warnings out from a different email account.
