    Why is it more "incredible" than the hundreds of similar spam messages out there? Or do you just have a thing for gals called Emily.

        This sounds like a winner. Maybe I better jump on this right away. Hey folks, it is a real shame that so many people lose their hard earned money on these scams. It is a shame that they either believe this or they are fooled by the idea of doing something good for others.

        In any case, we should all try to uncover these things and let others know that they are not legitimate and to steer clear of those "If It's Too Good To Be True, It Probably Is" situations.

    We should call these messages the god of spam.

    What they think people are stupid? Well I think yes because people who fall for these scams either lack knowledge or are just greedy.

    We should learn from their strategy instead. As they are bulk mailing to huge public and still get money and respectable open rates giving away NOTHING!

    And look at us, we got quality members, good relationship ( or atleast they know us) and still getting low openrates and sales even having a great offer. Learn from them how to make money giving away nothing, LOL!

    Totally Fake Thousands Of Other People Getting Same Email Every Day . This Is Fraud Don't Respond

    The thing is, the guys sending these emails are not expecting responses from people with brains. They know from experience that there are plenty of people out there that don't have the sense needed to spot these messages for what they are.

    Just be thankful you have more intelligence than the peeps these are aimed at.

    You hear it mentioned how stupid the average person is, - but then consider that half of them are even stoopider ! That's who the messages are aimed at.
