Nigerian e-mails
Recently I have begun receiving nigerian e-mails offering money. This is on an email account I only used one time. Opened it for one use only. Somehow, the nigerians got the address and I have been flooded.

Anyway, surfing around the web I can across http://www.quatloos.com/

What a hoot. Go read this entry where the guy writes back to the scammers.
