Hmmmm. This sounds remarkably like how a lot of SPAM starts...

You don't get it. You are part of the problem, not part of the solution.
You see, what spam is, is something on the net, lots and lots of times. I
could not say exactly how many it is, because then you would do it one
less time, and you would say it is not spam.

And now you ask for money. You see, the way the internet works, is that if
you want to get something done, a good cause, then you do not need money.
You just need time. And motivation. You are full of shit.

Oh, geez, why don't I just give out my credit card number to a stranger,
over the internet, in unencoded form, so that anyone along the line who
cares to read it, can. Share the wealth, eh? Can you say "credit card
fraud" boys and girls? I thought you could. :)

No, it is about a scam, which the only benefactor is you. We will never
see any positive end result here. And you, sir, are a spammer. Yes, it is
a spam. If you don't fucking like it, you can talk to my sysadmin about
it. Or even better, talk to your own system administrator about it. He
will be very helpful, and he will help stop the spam.

No, I don't like it. And I am on the internet. And I dare say, I've been
on the internet longer than you. And I am smarter than you. And wiser. You
sir, are a fuckwit.

Wow. If I contact your government, and ask them if you are a certified

These, and the system administrators that administer these accounts,
will also be informed.

And I will demon-dial your 1800 number with my modem day and night until
the number goes away.

Really asshole? And exactly _how_ will this money be spent? Hmm? I'm sure
you will be hiring lawyers and such, because you will be in court,
answering charges of Fraud.

Yessir. And these accounts will also be dealt with accordingly.>
