I usually respond with something along the lines of "go phuck yourself"


or make up a bogus email addy, and thell them I have copied the FBI's internet fraud division with a reply. (I don't know if the FBI even has an internet fraud division) I never hear from them again.

i had a project 34 hatteras listed for FREE and they still sent email- i am looking for item just like this, will send a check. and now the new scam..."you sound really hot. join this porn site and we can get together!!!" just delete the emails. don't answer. if they give a phone number, it is fake.

Definitely do not even answer!!! Some of them only need to see your email address. Password cracking software can do the rest for them! They can either use your email to scam others or once they get your email addy and figure a password if you have given any other information god knows......

It happened to me and my brother in law!

It is a shame but you can actually download password cracking software for free online and it works pretty well. So be careful!

I am a "deleter" as well, once I get past the first line I already know whether I should hit it or not, and I never think twice about it. That's just how it is, and I accept that.
