Okay, so we all know the typical scam emails that make no sense
whatsoever. Well, today, I got a most interesting one. The curiosity
in me requires me to respond so I'll see, but I'll be watching out
carefully for scams... and won't fall into anything. Anyways, here's
the email. Obviously it's not legit, I'm just curious where it goes
(I'm assuming it's an advance fee fraud of some type):
