Morning Folks,
I have been racking my brains on how to finance a new Mackie Active System and the problem has been sorted!!!!
Recieved this mail a few moments ago -
I am Lady Martha Stirling, Laird of Keir ,Recently my Doctor told me
that I have limited days to live due to the cancerous problems I am
suffering from,why my Husband is late Sir D. S,Chairman of Stirling
& Wright General Partners, I will also issue a Letter of Authority
that will empower you as an original beneficiary of this fund through
my Lawyer.
On a serious note, do these twonks really think that people fall for these scams!!!
Cheers and Beers

Hiya Mr Mayhem,
I think the answer to your question is YES.
If people didn't fall for those scams, presumably the scammers would stop sending out the emails.
It's the same with those emails from banks, with links to fake sites where they tell you to log on to confirm your details. I get loads of those, but there must be people falling for it, or the emails wouldn't keep coming!
:)

They aren't twonks, they take advantage of twonks. People get scammed this way which is why they continue to do it. Scary really.

I normally send back something in big red letters telling them what they can do with their email. Never seem to hear anything back though :)

I was wondering that... either a missing word or he typed 'my' instead of 'me'... as in 'tried to do me' :confused:
