Spammers Who Scam

A Poem Dedicated to Those Individuals Who Claim You Won the Foreign Lottery

Pikie Melago
What did I ever do-

To deserve all this spam-

Everyday I check my emails-

To find my inbox full of scams.

Three from Western Union-

Two from lawyers abroad-

One from Princess Anna-

And five from a lady named Maude.

I finally retaliated-

And responded to an offer-

But instead of my personal info-

I said I was a police officer.

That stopped the one-

But none of the others-

So I'm just giving up-

And deleting those mothers.

    LOL! Cute........and I think I'll try the same. I always wanted to be a police officer!

    This is a fun poem. Great idea to pose as a police officer. I'll try that one.

    clever poem -- scamming spammers should be rounded up and left on a deserted island with no food and nothing to make a lifeboat out of ;-)

    I remember when the authorities were going to try to cut down on the spammers. Never happened, did it? Opening your inbox should be a joy... Echo your sentiments, as do 99.99999999999% of internet users!
