I once engaged in an email exchange with a 419 scammer, and when it came time for him to ask me for the 'cash advance' I told him that he needed to send me a few hundred dollars in loan securement fees first (I'm a poor student, can't afford it, etc). The cheeky fucker actually had the nerve to send me a mail calling me a 'cheating bastard' and that I would go to hell for trying to scam him out of money! Oh, the irony. It's not all fun and games with the 419 chappies though. I once read a story about a man who flew to Nigeria after he was scammed to to try and get his money back. He was murdered a few days later.
My favourite scam is the old Citibank 'Please send us your details so we can verify your account' email that is full of the most horrendous spelling and grammatical errors it looks like it was written by a dyslexic chimp.
