What an idiot. If you do not have a grasp on the English language, you should not purport to be an affluent English man from London trying to retain a photographer for your 30 person birthday party.

I wonder how many of these morons actually succeed with these scams. I almost got caught on a Wachovia scam, but realized what it was before entering my logon ID and password. Rocky wasn't as lucky with the paypal spoof. Now, I do not pay attention to any of these e-mail things unless I actually know, and I mean know face to face, the person sending me the e-mail.

I got a similar one by some guy in Africa asking to use my attorney escrow account to hold his money in until he could get to the states. Imagine trying to explain to my clients and bar counsel how I lost all of my clients' money/escrow funds. These people should all be lined up and shot. Okay, maybe shot is a little harsh, but I wouldn't be opposed to 20 whippings or canings to be performed by each person that falls victim to this crap.
