Yea but they won't give you the money without a photo ID, oh, yea you have your passport right?

Of course I knew this wasn't right but went along with it. Be careful out there people, although it would be a stupid scam to fall for in the first place.

Elderly people, Snow... and others that have money but not all of their mental facilities. I suppose you could look at it as a sort of Natural Selection, and in many ways it is -- but to me it is just very sad. These assclowns prey on the weak and unfortunate.

Last time I looked into it, scams like this generate over 500 million dollars a year, according to the Secret Service. And since a large percentage of victims are too embarrassed to admit they were scammed, they guess that the total may be 3-4 times that.
