He is not going to make it far in life.

Spool · 01-14-2009, 08:51 AM

That could be a scam, to get sympathy from people, and they donate money to him...

wow...

IMO, if its good to be true, its likely that its a scam

Year's_End · 01-14-2009, 10:19 AM

i still feel bad for him, even though he's not that smart.

Kensta335 · 01-14-2009, 11:20 AM

Damn that sucks. If it was like $5k I wouldn't feel bad but $150k...ouch.

Fouls and their money are easily parted

I guest they must have been getting him back for guys to have been scamming the scammers over the last few years.

Best part is the chemical formula to make the money legal tender

jeho · 01-14-2009, 12:40 PM

thats it? i'll offer you 500,000$ in brand new printed bills, how's that sound..
use that extra 400k to buy yourself some property

kevinbahnz · 01-14-2009, 10:11 PM

Yeah I kinda feel bad for him because that's alot of money, But what did he tell his family for them to fork over that much money. I'm sure there's atleast one smart person in his family to know that it's a scam. Something sounds fishy. Hey dad can I borrow $60k . What would your parents say to you.?

bkms1 · 01-14-2009, 11:01 PM

i get 20 of these things a day in my inbox. They suck

RDHTran · 01-14-2009, 11:36 PM

lol I remember the first time somone tried this on me. It sounded really good at first then it got sketchy real fast.

josephr25 · 01-14-2009, 11:57 PM

I just spent a couple of hours at the www.419eater.com website... it's so funny to see them get tricked back
