Are there still morons out there who believe these emails? If so then you deserve to have your bank account raped by some script kiddie.

Phishing eMails 

Coat

I often reply to these emails OH yes I do but not with any thing that would bear repeating here,

Oh allright then its ESaD bu only if they come to my other eMail address, in my normal one they only get deleted come to think about it I'm going to have to put my HazMat suit on and clear out the crap.
