Scams, scams and more scams

We've all received those emails asking for our help to recover millions in lost money, etc. Scams are (unfortunately) an integral part of the Internet.

Most of us simply delete them, perhaps block the sender, and move on. But not one lady. She's made a hobby of scamming the scammers. She responds to those emails and turns the table on the people sending them.

I've spent several hours already reading some of her tales and will certainly go back and read the rest. If you're interested, check out this site:

Remember. The things she's responding to are SCAMS. She is not in any way attempting to cheat a real person out of anything.
 
Addition:

Here's some information from her site about the people she responds to...

How do I know this is a scam?

Well, if it's to good to be true then it probably isn't true! You can look up Nigerian scams on the Internet and find out about all kinds of scams that are going around.

Are the Police looking for these guys?

NO. There is no extradition in Nigeria. This is all taking place over seas. There is nothing that the law here can do to stop or catch these guys. The only reason for turning the money orders in to your local police department is so that they don't fall into the wrong hands and get cashed.

Am I worried they will come to my house to pick the horse up?

NO. That will never happen. They are only concerned about the money. If you fall for the scam and send them the extra money back you will never hear from them again. They certainly aren't going to spend $2000 dollars on a plane ticket to come to the USA to kick my butt over $50 and wasted time. There is never a chance of someone coming to pick up the item you are trying to sell.

If you do cash one of these money orders what will happen?

You will be very sorry! The money orders look so real that you can take them to your bank and cash them. A few days later after the money order has been sent to the bank that it was drawn off of it will be discovered as a fake. You will then be held responsible for the balance. The banks that the money orders are drawn off of do exist. That's why there is no questions from your bank at the time of cashing. The checks are not real!

The money orders looks so real, why?

Because these guys are very good at what they do! These are NOT drawn off of these banks, they are made to order. As fake as it gets.
