I got one of these a number of years ago that was absolutely hilarious. I had won some big money in some kind of Irish Lottery/Sweepstakes. Weird because I never even entered anything. The email actually said I came in second place and that the first place guy refused the money. LOL! I was the default winner. These email guys really crack me up. They really need to give it a rest.
This may date me but I received my first, back in the DOS days, I ran a BBS, and a user wanted me to give him my bank numbers, so they could send me six million.
This has been going on a LONG time!
