What's funny is that there are still idiots falling for these scams. Every once in a while there'll be a news story of a greedy dufus sending info or money to cash in on the 'easy dough'. A lot more of these are showing up what with the down economy and all. :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll:

I actually set up a Swiss bank account for that scam, and all of it's derivatives.

Unfortunately, I can't get anyone to deposit money into it for some reason.
