SCAMMERS NEED PROOFREADERS
It's amazing that many people fall victim to scam emails. I've just had one and I can see at least a dozen simple spelling mistakes. That alone should sound warning bells, especially when I have apparently won "One Million Dallars in the EuroMillions Lottory". Something is saying 'Nigeria' to me about the source of this particular one.
I'm always available to proofread and spellcheck any spam emails - payment by cleared funds and in advance of course.

Yes, EXACTLY! I've almost written a number of times to idiots that wrote me to scam me - to tell them how badly their letter was written. But really, the only good that would do is help them clean up their act and refine the scam! I've noticed the majority of scams I get for paying for an item I'm selling go something like this... Hello! I'm interested in your "x". I want 3 of them. Can you send them to my brother in Ireland because I'm on vacation right now but I really want your "x". I will send you cash by Western Union + $20 usd for your troubles. Please let me know ASAP. Thanks!
Those are some of the typical lines.
Oh, and when I was in the USA most scams were from Nigeria, Romania, Russia, Armenia, India, and some islands like "St. Kitts" in the Caribbean.
Hope that helps some folks. Look for the misspellings and grammar mistakes! Vern
