Whilst having a break from filming a tutorial on teleportation I thought I'd just share this with you :)
If you are like me you probably get loads of spam scam emails usually from a bank official in Nigeria asking for personal details. I got one last night and thought I would share with you the tactic I use for dealing with the scammers.

Here is the the reply I sent back to him. Why not reply to any you have and see if the scammers reply:

Dear Mr Johnson,

Many thanks for the email and asking me to help by providing a bank account to receive a share of the $42m from the floating account of the deceased that nobody else knows about.

I see that you are the Director of International Relations at the bank that you work for in Madrid, imagine my surprise when you say that you 'don't know any foreigner in my life'. How do you do an international relations job and never know any foreigners? That must be a great job with little to do, oh I wish I had one like it.

I would really like to have helped however, upon a recent visit to the toilet, imagine my surprise when £10m (UK sterling) fell out of my arse. I am unsure on the tax implications of having come into (rather painfully) such a large amount of money.

I would therefore like to be able to move it out of the country, ideally to Madrid. Hang on, you work in Madrid in a bank don't you? Please would you send me your personal bank details and I will tranfer the money as soon as possible. I will require only £1,000 fee up front. You see as the money came out of my arse it is a bit dirty and therefore needs laundering.

I look forward to a prompt reply

Regards
Lord Marmaduke Dangleberry-Flangebottom III

  • Haha! Good response Little Rich

  • hehehee When I worked as a Principal officer in Local Gov, we occasionally used to get a witty response from some disgruntled member of the public spouting off humorously about some policy or another that we had introduced and they made my day...I always took more note of those than the serious rants.

    Maybe Mr Johnson will have his day made although still no reply as of yet :)
