I have a question that probably everybody who have ever been a victim of scam have asked! As soon as we figure out that all these letters is a b*llshit, we blow up :evil: :evil: :evil: ! We get so damn pissed off that we wanna find these people and kill them :bondage: ! So my question is Can I at least answer them back the way that I want so? Can I white everything that I think about these people and all theirs freakin letters and offers? Or I better not to do that since they have my CV, photos and general information??????? :?:

Welcome to Scamwarners, sorokinax!
I'm really sorry that you have come in contact with a scammer. Yes, it's tempting to send them a nasty email and I'm sure that people do that all the time, however, as you said, they have your real name and other personal details, so it's not a good idea to reply back at all, once you know that you're dealing with a scammer.

I would like to invite you to join us over at our sister site - www.419Eater.com where we scambait, mess around with scammers, anonymously and safely, with the goal of wasting their time and resources. If you post the info of the scammer that tried to scam you over there, others will try to mess with him for you.

Dear Helen

Thank you for answering me back! Yes that's what I thought about.....I know that I can get trouble by answering them, but it's the thing that you hard to resist since you are getting so mad because of such situation, like you so happy that you found a job and you are so close to trust these people and then everything just screwed up!
Yes I deferentially will post all letters that I got from fake families for another people to know who they deal with!
So sad that it happen :(

Best Regards,

Xeniya
