In my bulk mail I keep getting messages that some dude died and that there is no one to recieve his money, so they want me to do some stuff and I will get like 3 million dollars or something... I know it's a scam, but what are they trying to do???
Oh and how about that Spam mail that you get that says a bunch of weird stuff at the bottom like "Spaghetti Jane shoes doll make" Weird...

I get hundreds of those every day, especially through Yahoo. I played along with a guy once and told him to just deduct what they wanted me to pay for "transfer fees" from my "inheritance". Of course they won't do that, even though I had inherited millions...LOL. When I got a pic of the guy that supposedly left me all the money I had to laugh as I am white and he was very black, but supposed to be related. I suggest you just laugh and delete them, unless you know you just inherited money or won the lottery!

LOL, that's funny... It would really be terrible if among all of those spam emails, one was actually real.

Spam is one of the most annoying factors of being online, and also one of the hardest to solve. It never ceases to amaze me how much junk people will send out in the vague hope of getting some cash, it also amazes me that many of them actually do make money from it.
Things were nad enough when we used to receive junk mail in the post, but at least it was costing a postage stamp each time so eventually they would give up. As for spam, it costs nothing to send an email and once you add the address to a distribution list it can stay there forever.
