Venditoris: Beware of Scams

Here’s YANL from Feb 21, 2008.

Oh what fun I would have with all that money, if it weren’t such an obvious fraud & scam.

When will these people ever stop?

I guess that as long as there is at least one sucker who falls for this stuff, they’ll continue to burn up the Web and email servers with it.

Add this one and the name and email address to you collection.

We’ve added them to ours here for all to see and learn about treating the publishers with scorn and mirth.

What sense is a good scam email, if we can’t just get our jollies from their obviousness?
