One of the reasons I will go to Hell is because I once went to a "balding and hating it" website and filled in my ex's info. It gave me such pleasure to know the type of spam he is probably stilll getting 5 yrs later. I have cut down on my spam by just using one special email address when filling out anything on a website. But I am sure that my grandson or the rude lady at the gym must be doing the same to me cuz I believe in Karma.

What I wish someone would invent is an email program that once you block an address or mark something as spam that it makes it bounce back to the original sender.

Just deleting an email or having it sent to the spam folder accomplishes nothing. It needs to bounce back and therefore jam up the inbox of the spammer.  >:D

Geeze, even Yahoo now asks you if you're sure you want to empty the contents of your spam folder. How annoying is that???  !@#$

In my younger days I used to repond to them with the phone number of the Secret Service and tell them to email me back at my @interpol.com addy. But I figure it just lets them know you have a sellable email address. I just wish someone would invent an email that Tasers the person who gets it. Just be careful with any email you get from @tasermebro.com

To claim your prize,Contact Mr Brian Saunders with the following informations.
milleniumbcpbnk@yahoo.com.hk

So .. it's a Canadian draw .. but the funds are in USD .. and I'm supposed to email a Yahoo Hong Kong email address to claim my prize ...

Looks legit to me - I'm a winner!  :^*

Everytime I get one of these I write them back telling them to learn proper English. Of course, I'm not very polite about it.  :)))

Too funny.  I am now receiving emails telling me I need to contact them about collecting my prize.  Then they sign the email with a name that is exactly my last name.  I think these people need to get a job.

Even with the poor grammar, spelling, and wording they still manage to fool some of the unwashed masses.  :oo

Wow, Microsoft is giving cash away while putting 5,000 people out of work due to this awful economy?  That's a very generous thing to do for the public and a very nasty thing to do to workers.

To those propagating this sort of email crap:   :oo
