More On 419eater

From 419eater:

So what is scambaiting? Well, put simply, you enter into a dialogue with scammers simply to waste their time and resources. Whilst you are doing this, you will be helping to keep the scammers away from real potential victims and screwing around with the minds of deserving thieves.

It doesn't matter if you are new to this sport or a hardened veteran; if you are wasting the time of a scammer, or frustrating them in any way, well that's good enough for us, and we would welcome you to join with our now very large community.

Although this site concentrates mainly on the Nigerian 419 scam, we are happy to deal with other types of scams if and when the opportunity arises. We also have a large team of experts dedicated to the removal and closure of fake scammer banks and sites.

The following are some of my favorite photos from 419eater's Trophy Room. Typically, the thieves are coerced into declaring allegiance with some made up church or organization before any money changes hands. Hilarity ensues.

Oh, your knowledge of felching makes one of these funnier.

I can lose hours on this site. In my early days working at a credit union, we would get faxes and letters all the time from these scammers, and occasionally hear from a customer who'd been taken in and lost money. Little did Al Gore know when he was inventing the internet that he was going to make these guy's lives so much easier, reaching more potential victims at virtually no cost. I enjoy see a few getting wound up.

The signs are great but they've even succeeded in getting some to get tattoos, I love that!

for the record, knowledge of felching doesn't making anything funnier.
