I like to play with my computer on rainy days.

(I'm not sure where to post this, please move if necessary)

I wrote several computer programs and used them to:

1. Download around 40 topics from the Forum Surplus 419 Scam Letters section with around 30 emails each.

2. Extracted the topic titles, Forum links, and IP addresses for those which had them.

3. Looked up the IP address on an online data base.

Note that the last IP address in a group is usually the originating one.

You can guess which country came in first.

Here are a few results:
