Every now and again, a 419 scam mail comes through that fairly boggles the mind.
This is one such mail.

Wait – the gimmick here is that I’ve already been scammed by a 419 mail, but with the aid of “FBI Brad” I can reclaim my money with the aid of some random lottery?

I’m sure we all wish we had a “global scam computer” to hunt down the bad guys, but in this case all we need is a little common sense. Although a ludicrous attempt at web shenanigans, it still leaves a nasty taste in the mouth due to the fact it plays on the fears of victims who have already lost money to scammers. Unfortunately, it’s a very real possibility that someone desperate enough could stand to lose out twice over.
Don’t let this happen to you!
