I read that 419er baiting site and tbh it was perhaps one of the very best sites I've ever read.

Good to see some of these guys are going out of their way to get the scammers to *willingly* hand over their personal and victims information.

C'mon. The best is surely

   "I like Enema Fudge."

It reminds me to some extent of my own gaffe in that area, when I helpfully provided the inhabitants of rec.pets.cats a literal translation of the Dutch expression een kopje geven---the gesture a cat makes when it rubs its cheeks against your hand, legs, food bowl, whatever.

I'm not going to repeat what that translates into, y'r all big boyz, and Google Groups is your friend. :-D
Some people say that cats are sneaky, evil and cruel. True, and they have many other fine qualities as well.

It's as funny as hell seeing exploiters exploited.  

:lol:

Slightly O/T a guy in Kent set up a website detailing the activities of parking attendants in his home town a couple of years back.  The police paid him a visit allegding harrassment, so he moved the site to an offshore web host.

The local Traffic Wardens had been filmed picking on people unfairly, whilst at the same time flouting their own rules.  They were the first to cry wolf the minute their fraudulent activities were pasted for all to see on the net...

Isn't the net a wonderful thing?

I didn't see the Enema Fudge one, but I have to agree that it takes first prize!

Brilliant stuff :-). It's been a while since I've seen Nigerian junk mail, my filter gets 99% out and I delete that mostly unseen.

I hate to admit it, but it took me a few minutes to get the 'master baiter' joke. But now:
