I was on Yahoo Answers one day and I got this very strange and descriptive email from this girl complaining about some warts on her butt...seriously WTF.

I have a random dude email me telling me how much he liked to watch muscley guys in panties for porn. I wasn't necessarily surprised by this, but I was just confused since I had no idea who he was.

I had a Yahoo! email account in 2004.
One time, I got an email from someone claiming to be an Iraqi citizen asking for help. He offered me thousands of dollars in riches if I agreed to hide his money in my bank account.
I never responded to it. I just read it over and over again wondering who the hell the person was and how he even found my email address.
...I quit using Yahoo! for that very reason.

My buddy the other day got an email from someone from istanbul, some of it was in english, and the rest in another language. What we got in the english part of it was something about taking over the world. Weird and creepy.

LOL... I use to get allot of that stuff... As entertaining as they may be, I recommend not even opening those e-mails... They could contain spyware or viruses
Luckily, the spam thingy is pretty good at catching that kinda stuff now... I still have a few friends I joke with about getting big money from Africa or the Middle East and using it to take over the world though :laugh:

I seem to win the Euro lottery every couple of weeks, never seem to win the Australian one though, and that's the one I buy tickets for ::)

In 2007 I spent three months corresponding with a mentally disabled 11 y/o boy. He originally started forwarding family event planning type emails to me, which was annoying..apparently it was because my email address was really similar to his Aunt's. :icon_blink:
