Is there some sort of virus etc that i could send to those African scamsters that might shut down there hard drive or something? , i get a few of their letters - the ones where they have fleeced millions from people as featured on 60 minutes, my wife on the other hand gets emails from banking corps trying to scam our account details. so i was thinking why waste a perfectly good trojan, it would be nice to send back something that they richly deserve don't you think.?
