I see scams on the internet constantly, over the years I have developed a sense and can detect what's fake or not very well.

What's the best scam you've seen, one you almost fell for, or did?

I got an email from a lady named Grace Boyi who said I was next in kin because her late husband died. I totally fell for it. She said three million dollars was waiting for me. And I was sixteen so I was nieve. She asked for my account number so we could do a wire transfer etc. And wanted my name and last name and a picture of me. And she even had her doctor calling me from Nigeria to confirm everything. I thought it was real. So when I brought all the email copies and stuff to the bank, the banker told me it was a scam so we had to file police reports and had the FBI contacted for whatever reason. Thank god I had proof and did not follow through. I also had a cruise line scam. they said I wont a cruise. They took out five thousand dollars out of my checking account of money I never had but had a refund once I threatened to sue them. Wow. Its some crazy stuff.

There are several sites which like to mess with the scammers, wasting their time and everything, even scamming the scammers, it's funny. I forget what it's called, but it's good entertainment.
