Two mega disasters (Burma cyclone, China earthquake) in a week, but I haven't yet seen any parasite Lads trying to make money out of it.

After the Boxing Day 2004 tsunami their formats were all over the place like flies on a dog-turd.

If any of these formats surface, I urge everyone to bait the hell out of them, nothing makes me as sick to my stomach or as angry as this...... Evil or Very Mad

It's early days yet.
They'll be coming... the lads are probably working on the formats as we speak. Evil or Very Mad

Surely its a Find and replace jobby with added bbc page.

Man they are lazy. I expected better from them.

I've had a scam mail from the son of Robert Mugabe in anticipation of his father having to flee from Zimbabwe - which is a little hopeful bearing in mind that dealings with that family are embargoed, I believe, around the world.

I think most of the themed disaster scams I've seen have taken a few months to reach the stage where they are well out in the open. Maybe you get fresher mail than I do!
I tend to bait a lot of the NOK plane crash scams, and my last one was asking me to be the next of kin of Colin McRae (World rally star). That was quite a few months after his helicopter crash. Maybe the lad didn't follow the world rally championship very closely. Confused

Most of the plane crash scams that I bait tend to be years old.

I think my catcher addy is stuck in a particular circle of lads who don't do the up to date modalities.

hmm, it might be that it would seem strange that the NOK lads couldn't find any living reletives and that the bank will steal all the money in under a week. Especially as they are still in a state of chaos.

More likely that they are lazy though.

Surprised i haven't had any charity scams though. They usually are a bit more on the ball.

Maybe they have a respectful period of mourning before jumping all over the dead and buried.

As I recall the grieving widow of Steve Irwin popped up fairly quickly after his demise.

They are watching the news to see if any "westerners" were affected.

Format arrival times: Tsunami - 4 days. London bombings - 4 hours. Evil or Very Mad

Suha Arafat, OTOH, wrote me before Yasser's body had time to get cold.

Well, didn't she do quite many daring things when Yasser was fresh and alive? Rolling Eyes

Not that I was a bit surprised.

(I'm sorry, I should know politics and religion are a big no-no on Eater.)

I strung the Arafat widow along for quite a while and then when I offered to comfort her after the manner of a man and a woman enjoying the pleasures of the physical type and giving long and descriptive accounts of my legendary manhood with words like Pringles can with tennis ball balanced on top or Baby's arm holding a McIntosh Apple or a large purple plum she sorta just faded away....I think she lost interest in me and that hurt. I'm still not over it Sad
