    I frequently get scamcrap like that. Mostly it's the "pass this on to everyone on your list" emails that bothers me most. Not because they are sent to me, but because my friends were actually dumb enough to fall for it.

    I can't believe people are sad enough to write scams like these... They really should do something more constructive with their time (says someone who's been surfing around DP for the last 5 hours...)

    No I was referring to myself! :) And I agree, there is a lot of useful stuff on DP and I don't actually consider it a waste of time. That said I really should start writing my report soon...
