Scams

Of late I have been receiving scores of idiotic scam mails. Attached below is one typical scam mail which states that I have won the so and so lottery first prize ticket and that I am to contact the person in concern to get the money. Who the hell these idiotic sick people think I am? An imbecile nut or what? You would be surprised to know that there are in actual fact Singaporeans who has been dubbed into providing their bank account and other important contact details resulting in their money been withdrawn from the banks by these CyberCriminals!
Why would people believe such idiotic mails? I could only think of one possible reason, greed. Seems to me that some people forgot that there is nothing free in this world.
