WARNING:
I just received an EMAIL from a person. This person addressed me as Peg Leg.
This is a scam and I suspect it came from Nigeria.
You all know the story about me setting up a Bank accouint so they can deposit a large amount of money and I am to recieve a 15% fee.
They used the name MEL FISHER.
tHE EMAIL ADDRESS THAT THEY PROVIDED IS
[email protected]
also http://www.melfisher.com/Investors/forum/
I have received these before but never using the name MEL FISHER.
I expect that some of you will receive the same type of Email.
Now I know why few have the email address listed.

Of course the FEDS will not do anything( THEY ARE TO BUSY LOOKING FOR TREASURE HUNTERS) but the FISHER PEOPLE MIGHT ::).

I get spam mail all the time from people with subject like "shipwreck" or something to that effect. If you have your email visible they will extract it from the link on the website. And especially don't use it in a post.

I use the earthlink spam blocker, and it has done wonders. I would get at least 30 junk emails a day!

Anything from Nigeria or Africa is a scam.

Countless times I have heard from people on the net or in chat about these scams.

Before they did inheritances or business disputes or something like that.

For here they use treasure as a lure.........

Report it as spam if you are able to and then delete and ignore them...
