    Yeah I've made a fortune over the years from these mails that most people foolishly regard as "spam". It also helps to soothe my conscience that I am helping Africans in my own small way maybe this is how Bono got so rich too.

    There are websites that scam the scammers. They go along with the scam feigning ignorance and go as far as to fake air tickets to prove to the scammers in Africa that they indeed are coming over with suitcase full of cash. Eventually they get the africans to hand over cash for a particular reason such as booking hotels and then drop all links with them. www.419eater.com, some great stories

    Yup, me too. But Willy is a good friend of mine, so I know this to be absolutely legitimate, of course. ais.
