Cool Cooperation

Dear all members of this forum
I have to make a suggestion how we can be informed about all scam mails that have being send to persons that they do not want to be involved to report them or to be members of our community.
I have already asked from my friends to forward all this type of fraud messages and I make all reports instead of them.
And already more than 10 scam mails have being forwarded to me the last 2 days and are also posted here.
Lets create our pyramid of sources of information against scammers.
I should like to have administrator;s opinion if this is correct or not.

Great idea Mercenary, if we all work together we can certainly make things harder for the scammers. Whenever I receive a scam email that names a legit company I always forward a copy to the company at the 'contact us address' and link it back to the appropriate posting on 419legal, with a short explaination about the purpose of the scam and ask them if maybe they could post a warning on their home page to stop innocent people getting caught up in the scam. I also explain that the scam's are not a 'one off event' but organised crime run by career criminals. In the majority of cases the warning will appear within a few hours, Ok so we can't stop the scammers, but we can certainly make it harder for them to get new victims.
