Good Day Dearest One,

I have the feeling that this piece of mail will reach you in a perfect state of mind and in a better healthy codition. While searching,i came accross your contact address and decided to contact you,to write you because I have no other alternative. Since after the death of my father in the hands of the rebels I have been in a very big difficulty of how to safeguard the money that my father left for me before his death because, the money is a huge amount 7.5 million us dollars presently in Bank. I am afraid I dont know how and where to start about it. Please if you can help me try to reply me urgently as i will explain more to you and we can discuss fully and God will always bless you for your help which I know you shall never regret as I am going to take you as my caretaker. I am Waiting eagerly to hear from you. Please i like you to email me on my mail box -([email protected]) Regards
Miss Ann Awa..

I've had quite a few like that and I've only been at it for just over a week.

I've seen a couple like that...in the end, it's less for me to read so I've got no complaint.

Probably not. But I do it just to take a mental note of every little thing I can make a point out of, and make an issue of it one after the other to tie them up for a bit.

Plus, I just enjoy reading them for the bad mistakes that make me laugh.

I'm also baiting Mr. Sim0n and I think he's just lazy and stupid. Long scripts wold probably confuse him.

If the lads are writing shorter scripts that could mean that their "business" is being adversly affected (by us scambaiters) and that they need to send more mail at a faster pace. (To reach the real victims and not scambaiters.)

Or, it could mean the inverse, they're sending more mail at a faster pace because many more are falling for the scams then before (or there are more scambaiters).

I personally hope the former is the reason why. What does everyone else think?

I suppose I should be grateful there was something in the subject line.
