The depths of human stupidity are limitless.
I really liked the Thai website selling XP Pro for ten bucks!
My killer sig came courtesy of bb "El Jefe" mayo.

The only way to make $$$$ fast is to hold down the shift key and type 4 several times...

Oriphus, you're going about it all wrong. You never know which one of these "plans" is going to be the one that makes you rich over night, so instead of putting a lot of money into 1 of them you need to put a little money into every one you find. That's what I do. 8D

lol @ Vurbal and Madbaz. It really is amazing to see how many people are stupid and fall for scams. One of the best ones is:
Ebay - £6000 plasma screen, only £999 - send your money via Western Union money transfer and put a password on it to protect the account until u receive your plasma screen. What most dont know is that Western Union will allow you to place a password on the account, but the person who is to withdraw the money, doesnt need to use it to get it out. Therefore, you have been had hahaha

I am surprised they asked for $6. A study done in the USA (were else) found that $5 was the max that people would send out. Too much and not that many will buy in. but what is $5, about the cost of starbucks coffee. If you make your scam too cheap, then people will think its a scam.
The best one I liked was an ad for the universal Hanger, Hange all delicates and shoes, ete. Only $5, send it away and in the mail you got a Nail.

A buddy of mine just got taken for 600 bucks on ebay buying a cell phone..Paypal which owns ebay told him forget about getting any money back.. Beware if you use paypal or ebay.. They wont give you ANY info what so ever about the person selling the item if you get ripped off.. Just letting people know about paypal and ebay... BEWARE!
