I got pretty much the same email today but the name was different and he claimed to be Gaddafi's driver.

[Arginald Valleywater]

Both wrong. Tony Blair was Gaddafi's driver when he wasn't being G W's lapdog.

Perhaps we ought to;

#1 Start prosecuting those who respond to this guff, on the grounds that they are encouraging it, and so making life a misery for the rest of us;

#2 Or declare them incompetent and unable to look after their own financial affairs.

In both cases, ban them from operating a computer.

I absolutely agree. When I see some of these Watchdog style programmes on TV about some person who has lost half a million in savings etc because they've been conned I tend not to have much sympathy... they genuinely thought that they were about to get tens of millions for absolutely no reason at all. If they're too stupid/greedy to realise it's a con, then they deserve to be conned.
