Hi I received a message from Mr.Vincent Cheng Hoi Chuen,GBS,JP Chairman. It is obviously spam. Is there any danger in responding back just to screw with this guy?

Hi Alex

The best advice I can give is to delete and ignore.

If you really want to mess with him, take a look at www.419eater.com over there they bait scammers and they can teach you to "mess" with them safely

Hi Alex,

Baiting can be a lot of fun, but you need to make sure you read and understand all of the safety information on 419eater. If you really believe that you would like to reply to scammers as a hobby, do follow the link Ralph posted, and start reading. :D

There's a danger if you reply using your real e-mail address, and associated information.

I'm also over at Eater, so if I can help you out in anyway, PM me (Same username).
