Great list, LadyZ! I think I've seen just about all of them at one time or another! That Nigerian one, the cookie one and the 'work at home' one seem to be in my mail about once a month! [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Perfect discription, spam email is one thing, but when your friends email you forwards is another. I find it annoying also because of the fact that my inbox protector filters out most spam but not from people in your address book. |

The Nigerian one I seem to get every month or so... damn AOL. Some people do reply with the express intent of making fun of the whole thing - I seem to remember a reply agreeing to the terms and asking for 'a meeting in Nigeria airport with the money in unmarked bills in a black suitcase ready to be handed over, and no-one else present except for my security adivsor, Mr. B.A. Baraccus'.
