Default Don't your just love these letters !

I get 3 to 5 scam letters a day. At first I use to get mainly letters like these, uk national lottery, etc,. Then I started getting job opportunities to transact money for "companies". Another kind of scam letter I just love is a "Barrister" sending me an e'mail stating that someone with the same last name as me had died and that I need to collect the inheritence. The other kind that always throws me for a loop is a "Barrister" asking for my help in collecting money from some "deceased stranger" that needs to be collected right away. They all make me laugh, but pissed at the same time b/c unfortunately there will be some poor sap out there that will fall for it b/c they are hard up for cash and no nothing about these scams. I wish there was a way that we could completely put a stop to these scams, but unfortunately that will never happen.
