Spam Scams (Yeah, it's not game, related so sue me)

I’m sick of hearing about people getting duped by stupid spam emails. Most of scams people tend to get trapped in are so unbelievable that who ever fall for it deserve it. If you get a random email from a Nigerian saying they’ll give you X amount of money but only if you can front them money they need for the “bank” to cash the check. Let’s think this through, you got a random email from someone you don’t know, which is from a country you’ve probably never been to, and with a banking system you’re not familiar with. Hmmm…any warning bells going off in your head? How about the guy who decides to buy his erection medication from the linked website rather then t6alking to an actual doctor. Did you get sugar pills instead of your viagara or have an allergic reaction from the random blend of herbs thrown together in an untested product? Poor you!
Now many of you are agreeing with me and here’s where that might change. Many of the “victims” are elderly individuals who don’t have know real knowledge of the internet. Poor Granny got scammed into donating thousands of dollars to a a girl with needs living saving surgery. Yeah, that sucks but perhaps if Granny isn’t aware enough to realize it’s a scam, she shouldn’t be using the internet. If you would trust Granny with your car because you’re afraid she might take someone out and not know it. You might want to keep an eye on Granny when she’s online. Sometimes I think there should be a test to decide who can use the internet. That’s pretty much it, I await you comments.

BTW, I wanted to tell everyone that I was just asked to help this family out in Zanzabar to smuggle 20 billion dollars. If I help them, I get 10% of it. So I am going to send them my bank info so they know it.
Well heck, I will just post it here. AbleGamers bank is Jefferson Co Savings Bank. Account number 2039-1121940053 and the AbleGamers Debit Mastercard is 4332 3044 1109 2307 and the Exp is 10-19 and the little code on the back is 922. I am sure that no one will use it nefariously right?
I will point the Zanzabar people here.
