1. I get a couple of these a day in my spam filter.

2. Good. People stupid enough to fall for that are probably mostly
Teabaggers. Whoever ends up with their money probably puts it to better use than they would. Most likely in a different country where it's not used against progressives here.

4. Like the other poster I get five of six a day but I keep getting
one that says it is from the FBI and that they have funds to give to me...I forwarded it to the FBI and never heard anything. But as incompetent they have been over stopping and arresting the threatener's of the Democrats I guess they thought it was real.
