NOTE:

If I refer to anything from the email scam in my reply I've bolded it, so you don't have to read the entire scam to get the references. Also, to maintain my anonymity I've changed all of my real contact information in my replies to Scamtastic. Some of the emails are written as if I were a woman and some are written as if I were a man. For the record, I am neither.

My Reply 2:

Good Sir Knight,

After reading thy decree, I suspect thou mightest be a black knight, sir. And I do not refer to the Martin Lawrence witchcraft of our Lord's year 2001, but rather the color of thoust cutpurse soul. I thunk to thineself, why wouldst thou King seeth to giveth a lowly rapscallion like thyself such a princely sum? Nay, he wouldnst! Does thou thinketh that thy wokest up so early in the morrow that I wouldnst discover the trickery of such a knave! How darest thou, sir! Thou asketh for thine contact information as if thy werest a tosspot wench who would showest thine undergarments for a piece of fresh cheese. You are a scoundrel and a carbuncle! Now I pray you to leave me be whilst I use this magic box to procure me some paintings of lovely maidens in the privy.

Fare thee well,

Scamtastic
