If these were legit, I'd be a billionaire.... P.S. in the event that you do, please do not give these jerks any money or personal info.

OH MY GOSH YES SIR I DO!! Depending on the mood I am in I either play along, so far as to sound eager and very willing!! or, I will suggest that they use the money to educate the people that work for them!! Most of the emails I have received, the spelling has been horrendous, or not that I can really talk, their grammar and punctuation is lacking!! Then their are the days where I just check the box, and hit the spam button!! What I wonder is, do they just mail them out to all of us?, or do they "hmmmm, this persons name is Sue Smith, I bet she would love to be involved in an illegal scam!! Let's give her a shout!" Have a great day all!

I get them all the time too.There are idiots everywhere doing that.They just want your bank account number and stuff like that.A woman wrote me and said her husband died,she is dying from colon cancer and has no family worth leaving it to.She never had children and wants someone to take care of the money by giving to the poor and homeless.Well I'm poor(military pay) and it's ashame that they send these e-mails to people especially knowing how hard it is to support a family now adays.

I get a lot. Also I get a lot of e-mails for Viagra and all sorts of other stuff to correct penis dysfunction. If all these claims were true I would live a great life and then die extremely wealthy with a 3 foot hard-on.

I get so many of these a week it's pathetic. I often wonder how many are gullible enough to follow up on these. Some of them I almost find laughable. This routine has been done on fax machines for years also.

I used to get them until I decided to be a a$$.
I would contact them get a phone number call them and give them a fake phone number and bank info. Pretty soon they got wise and stopped mailing me.
Hey why let them aggravate me? I got a laugh out of it and it was worth the price of the call ha ha ha!!

I've had quite a few actually. Am in the US - we had a sales guy over in the UK and the last one I received was from there. He said he actually spoke to one of the people and he said he was with their policing force (I know it's called something different) and they hung up on him.

Yes, and also I win the lottery all the time! And it's usually lotteries I've never even entered. I've chalked it up to extremely good luck. I've sent them my credit card #'s, Social Security #, bank account numbers and PINs. I haven't gotten my cash yet, but they say any day now. I'm going to be RICH! RICH I tell you!!!
