Why stop them? They are so silly, you just have to laugh. What is your record? I 'won' 4.2 billion in one month alone, but that was a few years ago. They have got a lot fewer recently.

Of course they didn't send it! Would I be here earning a few cents if I was a billionaire? Won was in quotes! I thought it was obvious that I didn't win anything!

hmmmmmmmmmm! Hahahahaha! Yeah you are right if you are billionare then why you will earn here cents. But at first when i got the email i was really excited that i have won such amount, and i sent them all the necessary information, but when they asked for the money then i understood that they are scammers. But at first they made me happy.... Isn't it?

Yeah, try to direct those messages to your spam box by marking them as spam. We all get messages like that, it's apart of life online. Just ignore them. Anything too good to be true usually is.

Make sure that you put the addresses of all your legitimate contacts in your Contacts list and set your filters to send everything else to the Spam folder. OR ... Set up a new email address and ditch the old one. Spam filters are pretty good (in Yahoo, Gmail and Hotmail) but they need to be turned on!

Thanks buddy! But i can't change my email address, because everyone have this one, and contacting me on this email. The spam filter option is the best one.
