The scary thing is someone will probably respond.

I don't know if this scam is an old chestnut but I saw it for the first time last week and it made me smile.

Talking Re: The credit crunch has hit 419ers..

This was hysterical, too, as are the comments. It reminds me of the closing comment from The Book on the record version of the Hitch-Hiker's Guide, telling you how to get a copy:

"...enclosing £4.95p for the book, and five hundred and seventy-eight thousand MILLION pounds postage and packing."

Did someone once ask if spam was a problem in Star Trek? Do the Ferengi run the equivalent of 419 scams (wouldn't put it past 'em!)?
