Perhaps we should do some communal baiting - see 419eaters.com - I reckon we could come up with some plausible baiting to get something out of one of the feckers. Perhaps we could endeavour to get a CUK themed something - perhaps get them to get a CUK tattoo : "I CUK" or something...

Had another one about ten minutes ago - purporting to be from the Irish Lottery, telling me that I have won $1 billion (yes, that's US Dollars) on a ticket I bought in 1993.
Firstly, I didn't have an email address in 1993 (being not too far out of short trousers), so how do they know it's me?!
Second, I've never played the Irish Lottery!!
Jeeez, it's enough to make you weep (with helpless laughter), isn't it?

But they're not asking for any money from you, so how can it be a scam? I'll be applying at lunchtime.
