I had one of these , supposedly... from a friend.
I felt so bad that I was not in a financial position to help her, so I sent an e-mail telling her that I would love to help but couldn't....
She e-mailed me later to tell me that it was in the hands of the police and gave me her new address.
Who do these people think they are that they can try to steal whatever little we may have?
Thank goodness all was well for your lad.

Them be sCammers, not just sPammers.

Scamming the scammers is a pastime many enjoy -- there are groups on the internet devoted to the game.

Congrats to your cousin on a good one!
