Mr. David Lawson,
I am afraid a mistake has been made. I was a little confused by your e-mail. The total sum I owe you is £15,800 and not £15.9 Million. I do not understand why you are contacting me from a different e-mail address about this matter. As I am sure my sectary has told you, you will receive all of the money as soon as we have the July figures and we know how to get the funds to you.
You will receive the full £15,800 as promised so long as you keep your side of the deal.

You already have my telephone number and address should you need to contact me.

Regards,
Mr. J. M. Falseman

If I really wanted to waste his time, I'd start with this;


Quote:
Dear Mr. Lawson,

Thank you for considering me for assistance in this matter. I will be more than happy to aid you in this endeavour.

Name: Isabel Falkiron
Age: 63
Sex: Female
Address: (the address of someone you hate)
Phone number: (the phone number of someone you hate)

Sincerely,

Isabel Falkiron


P.S. Please contact me by email if possible. I am partially deaf and I do not want to miss your important call.
And we go from there.

Now if I just wanted to be mean;

Quote:
Dear Mr.Lawson,

I am afraid that I cannot assist you. I am currently participating in an effort to destroy the Nigerian fraud e-mail market, and the government watches my accounts closely. If you are interested in participating, please contact me at https://tips.fbi.gov/. I can assure you, the rewards for participating are very generous. Just include any information you have on fraudsters that have contacted you in the personal information section, and the FBI or Interpol will generously compensate you. I made over 15,000 USD for my last tip.

Please consider aiding us in this effort.

Sincerely,

Isabel Falkiron
I think the latter is particularly devious

Dear Mr. Lawson,

I applaud your attempts to make your message seem innocent, but, as I told your predecessor (I am sorry about his loss, by the way, but like mine, I suppose your organization has to get rid of impeding elements), we are not under surveillance.

The cargo you have requested (Attached is a manifest, for your confirmation) is located, as agreed upon by Mr. Herz, in our Hamburg warehouse. We will ship it as soon as you transfer the money to our secure accounts, which we will reveal to you upon receiving confirmation of this message.

Do not fail me here, Mr. Lawson, my boss will be very angry if there will be any more delays with this deal. We have spent enough time and money making it possible in the first place.

Daniel Maurer
Los-Angeles-Platz 32
21109 Hamburg Wilhelmsburg

-----------------

Attach an official looking document detailing the illegal sale of thousands of assault rifles, ammunition and other assortment of illegal stuff.

Of course, if he responds in order to get our accounts, we can go on from there.

I would ignore it. Answering that spam will only get you more spam. Why do you read your spam mail in the first place? Or wait... did you get this via snail mail?
