Forward the email (do NOT change the subject line) to:\n\nenforcement@sec.gov\n\nOr go to http://www.sec.gov\n\nS.E.C. is the Securities Exchange Commission.  They handle this crap.

I think most of them are, but they do annoy you trying to sell you things. I got some from somewhere and deleted them a couple days later.

same prob here with junk mail. go to edit spam settings..then you can have them deleted as soon as u get them..and u can block certain addy's also.

Thank you for the warning - these kinds of scam mails are flooding everyones mailboxes and I think that they contain one or more Viruses or Trojans or Spyware or Tracking cookies which transmit what you write in reply to the senders and then .... BANG - you or your PC or your bank account are done for - at least thats what I think - and so the best way is to religiously delete or mark the thing as spam without replying to it. They got your email IDs by tracking cookies on your computer or from a search of the internet using an iterative program

Russian sites? give them up. the girls on it are only after one thing. your money. I know the formula all too well. they are nice, they look hot, they try to convince you they love you and you love them. then they want to come to you, but they can't afford to so ask you to foot the bill for a visa, plane fare ect. if you do, they got your money and they vanish. I have an open case over one of them at the fbi fraud investigation department and can show you exactly how they work, the pattern they all work with and everything else. get hold of me at dragon16100@sbcglobal and I'll be happy to share my scam artist collection. i save them all.

Yeah I get those too, it's kinda creepy and you can't exactly block it since it's from like no one.  I just keep deleting them each time I get them.

Classic Examples of SPAM and FRAUD .. Dont ever fall for them ...\n\n\n...\n\nMy Nigerian Penpal\nIf you're the average email user in the modern world, you get an occasional solicitation from Nigerian con artists. Generally, I just hit delete (if my spam filters didn't already catch it, that is). However, it occurred to me, after reading some of the funnier close encounters (see here and here) with these geeks, that one of the best things we can do to stop them is simply to reply and waste their time. [UPDATE: Check out this page; these guys are brilliant!]\n\nUnlike most other spammers, the Nigerian con men provide you with their real return address. They want you to contact them. How unfortunate if, while replying, you accidently sign them up for other spam and mailing lists along the way. When they have to sift through 200 or 300 emails a day looking for actual responses to their requests, and out of those responses 99% are fake, they will get frustrated and give up. At least, that's the theory. Read on.

Best thing for you to do is to delete the message straightaway. I'm from UK and too many scams by post as well as by the internet... there's no new about that... it's just one of the problems around UK, so don't mind that.

I just got scammed today fro 891.00. After calling several times I realized this was a scam. Every time I called a different person answered the phone. I spoke to a Sara Walters, Elizabeth Jefferys, Adrien (he did't have a last name) and finally A Jim Jones. I asked him how dose he get away with what he is doing and he told me I was the stupid one for sending my money Western Union. So he addmited scamming me. He even went on to disguse his voice to act as if he was White and then Jamacan. He told me he was so good that he could act like he was from any race. Meaning he is one person imatating several. Then I spoke back to Sara (I guess she didn't know about the conversation I had just had) and she told me that my account had a "RED FLAG"  and she couldn't send me money unless I sent her another 585.00.  Can you believe she had the nerve to ask for more money.  I ended up calling the Canada police, they gave me a numver to a dept. called phone busters so I could give a report. I also found out that it is illegal for a Canaden company to ask for any money down before sending the loan. Unfortunally I found this information out too late!!!

I get similar e-mails all the time.  The only thing I know to do is to forward them to the below address.  Honestly, I don't know if it does any good, but that's what I have read.

Any psychic resorting to those tactics is a phony.\n\nYou need to remove yourself from their email list to stop the spam emails.\n\nThere are much better ways of finding good psychic advice.

those are spam mail.. \n\nUnwanted mails should be labeled as "marked as spam" to prevent receiving those emails in the future.\n\nand if possible, try minimizing exposing your email address to non-trusting websites

Everyone gets 'em, not just you.  Some ppl have better spam filters or blockers on their email account.  Make sure yours is set to high.  \n\nAnd please don't believe any of them.  I'm sick of getting chain letters from ppl stating they're gonna get a $500 gift card from Applebees just b/c they're sending the stupid email to 10 ppl.
