Somewhere in the depths of this boards' archives, a thread exists where the poster received an email like this and ended up turning it around on the sender. If I recall, it even included a picture of the sender with a fish on his head in a desperate attempt to extort money. Anybody else remember that?

Yes, and he sent him a box of ASSER computers all crushed in pieces if I remember.

I screwed with a guy pretty bad on one of those bogus cashiers checks. It was a blast.
