These scammers will do anything just to lure us in giving them money. The first time I received such mail, I was so surprised and thought I was lucky to be receiving that big amount of money. But then I realized, this could be impossible because there is no way for these people to know me. I have received hundreds of mails like that. And if it were for real, I must have been a TRILLION DOLLARS richer!

HI Jenny,
Thanks for the response, Several times and in different ways I am getting mails and messages. But I am ignoring all these messages and mail, I know these are fake messages and fake mails. Now these scammers are entering social network sites as members and sending these type of messages to us, instead of wasting time they can work in social network sites and earn money.

Hi Jenny,
Thanks for the response, I too say the same thing, they can utilize their skills in make money in regular way not like this type of scam messages and mails. They can earn white money easily by serving different firms in the world. But I do not know why they are not doing this and wasting their time, have a nice day.

I don't know why they still do these things when everybody knows that those are scams. They are wasting their time in doing useless things. They ought to think of better things to say and have a blog about it and yes, then they can earn from them.

Scams are bound to to be there as long as human beings are there. many times we fall a trap without knowing it is a trap.
I am seeing a tamil serial - Puguntha Veedu in Zee TV Tamil -- a bank manager falls a victim to a beautiful woman and goes on giving advances , mortgages aunt's poroperty without her knowledge gets money and does all that----

I know you would have received such a message for Nth time. just ignore, useless people. they know if they send mails to one lakh people there may be one guy susceptible to get caught. that person will keep it very secret and not tell like you--remit money, borrow money and remit money and in the end cry, cry,
such scamsters should be put to end.

Hi WakeUpkitty,
Thanks for the response, you may be right that this message is not from UK may be from Negiria. The Nigeria gang was caught by Chennai police some months back, still one more such friendship message from lady is waiting in my messages. I have not given reply to that message and did not wish to answer it, have a nice day.

Hi Mariaperalta,
Thanks for the response, their duty to secure the addresses, email ids and accounts from different sites. If they use this type of skill in writing good articles they might be earned at least some thing instead of wasting their valuable time like this, these lazy fellows does not know how live in right way. Have a nice day.
