Your $50.00 charge reminds of a little prank I wanted to play on one of those internet scam artists...but I found out I was too cheap to do it. As I'm sure 100% of the readers of this forum have gotten the same letters as me from those scam artists in Africa -- mostly from Nigeria -- you'll all know what I am referring to: you get an unsolicited email asking you to be an intermediary for a charity organisation in their country and could you please cash a check for them for a donation? And for your trouble you can keep 10% of the proceeds. The idea is they have one of their cohorts actually mail you a check, you deposit it in the bank and then before it has a chance to clear they convince you because of the urgent need of the charity that you are to please send them by international money order the funds. So, I strung along one of the scam artists making them believe I would co-operate and they emailed me back saying they were having a donator send me a check for $3,500 of which I could keep 10%. I would therefore be expected to send them $3, 150 and keep $350 for my troubles. My brilliant idea? To actually send them an international money order...not for $3,150 but for $3.15! I thought that would send them into a frenzy and stir up all sorts of shit. But I didn't do it because it would have cost $20.00 for the money order with Western Union and although I was willing to have a giggle for $3.15 and maybe an extra $5.00 I wasn't going to pay $23.15...
