At some point I used to get a ton of Nigerian letters. So I decided to start sending them replies. I'd wait till I get two (scammers A and B), and then I'd reply scammer A with something like this:
"Dear Mr. A. I am intrigued by your proposal, but I'm sure you understand a man in my position does not handle this sort of business personally. Here is the contact information for my agent, Mr. B. You can sort out the details with him".

I replied to that email and I got this:

That's nice, personally I won a cruise today according to the automated phone call I received. Unfortunately, my finger slipped and I hanged up the phone before I could accept my prize. But I'm not worried, they will call back. They always do.

Before you agree to anything just make sure to ask that they send you a photo of themselves while holding a dead fish :-).

Seriously. None of you understand that this is a scam?
Which person in this world warns you that you have won money? According to me they would take him.
And then ... to "redeem" those "millions" you have to pay REAL money that you give a damn about them and they will not hear any more.
LOOK A LITTLE NEWSCASTS
