Triumphrat

I've belonged to this forum long enough to know there are some incredible writers with equally impressive imaginations. If any of you get "ye ole Nigerian scam" email, can we do something like this that was just started in my Sportster forum?

Oh yeah; let's go for it. We'll want to make sure there's no apparent connection whatsoever with TriumphRAT (no sense going looking for people to attack the site), but we could really have fun with this.

Hog, your Sportster mates should raise the bar. Tell the scammer that President-elect Obama is on the case, in the interests of pan African unity, and that he's seeking Congressional approval for some Fed help. The bill to be raised in the house is called Seeking Congressional Aid - Mrs Morgan Emergency Release.

What I thought would be funny is if someone would post the scammer's email address here in the forum for US to contact THEM! All we'd have to say is that one of our friend's was contacted and we wanted to help too after hearing about the dire straights they're in!!

We could bomb their inbox for a change!!

here's one for ya, lets start a fake "Nigerian Email International Conference" give them some fake forums like "Getting the most out of your email address list" or "Maximizing your Bank Transactions" or "Good Email writing practices and punctuation tips", set the whole thing up like we're holding it in a Big fancy hotel in Lagos and ask for deposits for rooms and workshop entries, meals and a big formal banquet at the end.....
Any more ideas?
