A new twist on an old scam. As for emails, I pay attention to nothing except my family and friends. Of course sometimes they (friends and families) will forward these things on anyways.

I win the lottery practically every day! My email must be one lucky email address cause it seems that it is constantly being randomly selected for all sorts of prizes from overseas. I've answered them all with all of my financial information but have yet to get a dime. What gives??

Send all that to me and I'll check it out to see where your prizes are and get back to you.

That's better than the crap I get everyday, Tee. I must be on the Viagra/Cialis list!! Just how many erections do I need to get normally, before they leave me alone?? I really like the statement, "If your erection lasts for 4 hours or longer, see your Doctor"!! Hell, if mine lasted 4 hours, my wife, my mistress, my secretary, my girlfriend, my cows, my sheep, my dog, and the entire KU and KState women's basketball team would all be happy!!
