Lets all join the secret millionarse (spelling intentional) club on here and boast about our spendings! im personally going to open up a llama farm with my money
On a serious note, yes most intelligent people know these things are a scam, but now the internet is opening up more to the (how to put this..) dumb ass idiots with only 2 braincells to rub together (which includes the whole incestuous family) its easy picking to get information to commit identity theft, i mean whats to stop someone using the same email template and simply adding at the bottom to include creditcard details, bank details etc.

Gosh you need to reply to a hotmail address, do you think Bill Gates is giving his money away again or paying money if you forward your emails or even needs £2,000 to buy some Apple stock and will pay you £1,000,000,000,000 when he sells it?

Only 1 million? Theyre giving me 50 million. I just need to finish wiring over that 4,000 GBP lawyers fee!

Why can't people just embezzle money like my Cousin and I do?
Saves the trouble of writing and sending e-mails and we get the money right away.

You're lucky to have money, I must have a penis with the size of a peanut, who doesn't salute; because all the spam that I get is for the blue pill, and to get a bigger gun.

Today a woman called me telling me that I won US$1000 by sending an sms to a certain number, at first I thought it was just a scam to get all of my personal info, but she told me the exact date of when i sent the sms and my all of my dad's personal info (because he owns the cellphone where i sent the messange). She also told me that I would get another call from her when all the legal mumbo jumbo is done, and after that i would get my money.
Real? or just a scam?
I sure hope it the first one

Even still, be careful. Definately DO NOT give any form of information to them over the phone ( little stuff like your address and name is probably fine, but do not give them your SSN ( if you are in the US) and , obviously, dont give them any form of bank account or credit card numbers.)

I'm always careful with this sort of things, phone scams are increasing at an alarming rate here in Chile.
Anyway, the whole thing was real :icon_bigg, so in a few days I'll have my 1000 dollars.
