They never give up

dawg · 01-16-2006, 06:27 AM

I recieved this email this morning. By the way the email originates form a free email service http://bonbon.net/index.jsp. this makes atleast 100 of these emails I have recieved over the years. If you recieve a email like this be WARNED it is a scam!

Code:

Hello,

I need to know your price for the domain.  Please send it via  email.

Did you get offers from other people?

I run a software company. We develop client-server systems and databases in Oracle for a  local company. Buying and selling domain names is not my main business. Just another way to invest money and make additional income. 

Looking forward to do business with you.

Best regards,
Paul Deegan Ph.D.
President
BON Software Engineering

They don't give up because there is a "sucker born every minute", as PT Barnum once said.

Once its become so obvious they are scamsters isn't there anything that can be done to punish them? Hosts/ISP? Must be something if its been going on for so long.
