Something I ought to try when i'm bored one day

I liked the church of loaves wine and fishes. One of the best scam baiters I have seen. Google it, see how far you can take a scammer if they think they are going to get a quid.

It's amazing how stupid the scammers can be, you would think they would instantly spot it when somebody tries to play them at thier own game...

Even if 0.01% of people get scammed by them they are quids in.

It's a scam. These guys have got me twice already and I've lost almost £5000, do not fall for it.
