redkow97 Posted May 17, 2011 Report Share Posted May 17, 2011 Dear Ms. Clark,With the popularity of Craigslist scams, I'm sure you can understand my skepticism. With that in mind, I'm going to need for you to visit my website at www.gofuckyourself.com and/or enter (or email me) your full name, date of birth, address, social security number, blood type, pets' names, favorite sexual positions, name of first boyfriend, paternal grandfather's preferred brand of cigarette, and the following randomly generated confirmation code: B10WmEw4oREAfter confirming your confirmation and verifying your identity, I would be thrilled to claim my Macbook (valued at $1199).Eat a dick, and hugs and kisses,-Chris 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

imagineer Posted May 17, 2011 Report Share Posted May 17, 2011 Don't be too quick to delete potential spam emails... I get two or three scam emails like that everyday, but last Monday I received an email from someone on behalf of Progressive Insurance letting me know I won an Ipad 2. Turns out, it's legit. I'd filled out an online survey regarding the recent International Motorcycle show at the IX Center, and doing so entered me into a national drawing for an Ipad 2.

redkow97 Posted May 17, 2011 Report Share Posted May 17, 2011 ^ pics or it didn't happen.But even you said, you ENTERED the contest. That's what kills me about the morons who get scammed thinking they won the Turkish lottery. Don't you think you'd have to ENTER the motherfucking Turkish lottery to win it? Taking money from people is wrong, but finding people dumb enough to give it away seems somehow less sinister (unless they're legitimately mentally handicapped or something).
