Web Scammers and a Scam letter I just got

I used to hate web scammers immensely but now I just find them funny (except for the ones that engage in copyright infringement and I have a lawyer for those--its really nice when they have an adsense account because meting justice out to them is fairly easy). Wait, I take that back. I still hate the paypal spoofers because they tend to prey upon the elderly. I report those guys everytime and I wish just once I could get my hands on one of them (I used to be a bodybuilder and have been told that I have a grip of steel slash grip of death, which, from what I've read, is superior to the kung fu grip).

Here's a scam email I just received. I think I'll start posting these as I get them. Personally, I pray for a plague of veneral diseases to descend upon this entire host of web maggots.
