I know they are all scams and I would not bother the FBI. I heard not so long ago of a site where you could send chain email and email begging letters and the like, I just wondered if anyone here had the prescence of mind to write the addy down. I did not.

bounce them back to the sender...that way it looks as if you have no email address

Just to the deleted folder I am afraid. It is very common now to receive scam emails. Just set up a filter that automatically sends them to a junk mail folder by using key words.

You can buy a shredder very reasonably in your local bargain shop. whatever you pay for the shredder you will save in time and money by shredding all crap you receive as unsolicited mail. It is sad but true that there are so many gullible people out there whether it's greed or the need to offer help there are people who prey on you.Sorry to be so cynical but this stuff makes me mad!

The correct thing to do is save the whole thing to your computer and print it out. Then sent it to the USPS Security. They will contact you about it. DO NOT participate with any of the offers. If you send them anything, or try to use the forged money orders that they will send you, YOU will be liable. We have no legal authority or ability to prosecute with any of those countries

I usually just mark it as spam or junk mail. Do they really think that some people are stupid enough to fall for that scam?

You have three choices:
Trash
Shredder
Fireplace.........
FBI hears it all the time- don't expect them to do anything about it.
Just don't respond to them. The people who send them are nasty ruthless thieves.
