Scamming The Scammers
Another Boing Boing link, but I have to post it because it is the greatest piece of razzle-dazzle conjob-foiling chicanery I have EVER seen. Most anti-419 sites are actually pretty bad, involving no small degree of racism and 'stings' that raise little more than a grim smirk, but this thing! My God, this is one of the greatest pranks of all TIME!
The photoshopping is one thing, the hamster is another, but it is the use of much-loved British sitcom 'Only Fools And Horses' that truly raises it to the level of genius. Here's the link. Enjoy!
