I don't know what to make of this one. I keep getting mails in my catcher account from from Brian F. Di Caprio, founder/CEO/grand-poobah of CB-United (website http://cbunited.cjb.net/ ). The messages have lots of cool blinking graphics and linky buttons, and all the cool taglines and yuppie power phrases (win-win, outside-the-box, etc) you can expect.

This guy and his site may or may not be legal, may or may not be real, may or may not be another get-rich-quick scheme. Yes he sends out UCE's and a lot of them, but that's not always against the law.

My question is this: Does someone have to be an actual scammer to be baited, or can they just be a pain in the inbox?

MLM/Ponzi pyramid (imho)

http://cbunited.cjb.net/ is a redirect site pulling content from http://www.cbunited.net

MLM/pyramid as shown on page http://www.cbunited.net/marketingplan.html note the "This continues thru infinity"

False (Infinity -1) cause I won't buy it.

Probably not baitable, but by all means, try if you wish. Never know otherwise. Smile

Even seamen are being scammed when seeking work.

Found this site, www.donpedroshipping.co.uk/cruise-liner-job at about half way down the page, there are 2 links
Cruise Ship Employment Scam and the
Nigerian Employment-Money Scam Example,
if you scroll down to near the bottom on this one you find a link on scams concerning the Nigerian Oil Industry.
