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.

Dear Dr. Anderson,

Yay! I won some money! So anyway, what kind of doctor are you? Did you get your PhD in lottology or are you an MD? I was just curious, because I've got this nasty mole on my right side a few inches under my arm pit. It's about the size of three large bing cherries. It's starting to freak me out, because it's grown a tooth and is constantly asking me to feed it blood of the innocent. My question for you doctor, is if the mole turns out to be a subsumed twin, do I have to share the money I've won with him? I mean he's already been mooching off me for 30 years, isn't that enough? Please let me know what I should do.

Taciturnly yours,
Scamtastic
