Most of the ones I get these days are from the USA, but with spoof sites in South America. I suppose I'm in a different subset of spammerdom.

I'm in discussions at the moment with the Rev Soso Maxwell from DHL UK (checking his initial e-mail to me showed he's based in Colombia, but you can't have everything) who is going to send me a draft for £600,000 as soon as I send him £250 via Western Union.

Trouble is, my pesky Bank isn't willing or able to remit money via Western Union, and there isn't a Western Union office within range of where I live. We're in the process of trying to find a solution.

(No, I'm not using my normal e-mail address! He obviously doesn't know he didn't write to my spoof address, and he has a consignment number for me.)

He has my postal address - I rather hope he goes there and demands his money
