tsondaboy 0 Posted December 7, 2004 Share Posted December 7, 2004 Has anyone out there heard about the "419 scam" mails or "advance fee fraud"? I got today again a mail from the "Lads" and thought to reply to them to have some fun because I am bored. If you don`t know about this "419 scam" you should better take a look at this site. www.scamorama.com It has some really funny stories in it! Link to post Share on other sites

DrMabuse 0 Posted December 10, 2004 Share Posted December 10, 2004 You know its all so easy for us to say how stupid people can be, but people like my father who is new to computers, new to email and the like - they can easily be mislead... at least to open mails and the like. I think lots of people come to the internet either completely distrusting it, or the complete opposite. Both bad mistakes. Link to post Share on other sites
