Have you ever gotten one of those Nigerian scams in your email? You know - where they say you won millions in a lottery (or whatever)?
Well the webmaster on this site http://www.419hell.com/ answers those scam emails and does everything he can think of to mess with the scammer's head and waste their time.
Here is a fake photo ID that one of the scammers sent him...
(I think I could eat a photo with some paper and poop a more convincing ID!)

Well, thank you for the consideration for all the work I am doing for removing it. I do NOT have a magic button you know.
Please try and show some appreciation.

Use MailWasher, an alternative e-mail client to Outlook or Thunderbird.
It filters spam messages effectively.

Seeing as how I don't give a rats ass about politics either way, I'm not being republican. I'm being Ken and giving my opinion, not acting a certain way.

That is quite a sad attempt truly. Even an amateur at "419"can do better than that.

I picked the worst of the bunch. But many of the IDs are not much better.
