I got one of those scam emails where the sender tells you some BS about how he has inherited all of this money and he needs your help and in return for help, he will give you some gigantic sum of money. Well my friend and I decided to lead him. We began corresponding with him and told him that our name was Harry Peenas In the end, we told him that the only way we could trust him was if he sent us a picture of himself holding a sign...needless to say, once we got the picture, we stopped leading him on...here's the pic:

So to make sure I have a prompt reply while i think of something... I sent back the following email...

"Ok. That sounds great! Are you sure you want to send more than I am asking? You really don't have to... I feel bad. Especially if it is for your son! How old is he?

How would you like to proceed? "
