Google mail seems to filter all of mine out. I get loads of "dear sir, we want to offer you part time job work from home... etc" ones, but none as awesome as this! Every now and again I check my spam for a laugh.

Rev. Bornking is a hilarious one, mandl.

Twig - definitely try to scam the scammers! This could be awesome!
Although, they not be entirely stupid and there is the possibility of them finding this thread...
