Lottery scam emails-- from Europe and China... ARGH!

[supernova]

You know, I'm used to the down on his luck Nigerian Commerce Minister who just needs a deposit in his account from me so I can get my 30 million dollars.

Now I'm getting emails from the UK saying I've one some kind of Internet lottery and would I please contact them so I can get my £5 million. :crazy:

I'm also getting ones from Shanghai asking would I please go in with them on an import/export business. :crazy:

1. Oh yeah, they are starting to come in from all over the world now.

I think all the crooks want to jump on the Nigerian lottery scam band wagon.

2. It's really bugging me

I had to boot my 'puter again in the middle of that post. To finish that thought, it really bugs me to feel like I have to change email addresses every year or so just to keep away from this shit. It makes wading through my email really time consuming.
