Go to "Quatloos". A site that lists scams. Very enlightening

[Porsche-O-Phile]

Huh?

If I got an e-mail from anybody telling me to pay $20K (especially someone I didn't know) I'd tell 'em to go blow it out their posterior! Problem solved.

[speeder]

I usually reply by first enquiring whether they have any good-looking daughters, or failing that, please send me two or three of the best looking female specimens from their country, then negotiations can begin on the used $2000 car that I am selling. I explain that this is the cultural norm in my country.

[lendaddy]

I have been itching to use this one from the board. I think I will use it as my standard response to all scams of this type. This still makes me laugh everytime I see it.

[91C2wrencher]

lendaddy, you crack me up! where do you find these pics? I'm thinking maybe business cards with this on it to hand out when somebody makes a half azzed staement. "Thats profound John, here take my card and call me when you sober up."

[lendaddy]

I cannot take credit for it, but it is from this board. The first time I saw it I literally had tears in my eyes. It's not just the picture, it's the inferrence of complete stupidity you know

A Dumb Bunny?

[lendaddy]

I happen to know the bunny personally, and am deeply upset that you think I called him dumb! He has been a BunnyMENSA member since '94 and I assure you he was caught at a time of weekness(carrot binge) when the pic was taken by his frat buddies er bunnies, whatever. Please retract your statement, thanks.

Mr. Rabbit was introduced by svandamme during the "Scooter Scandal" thread.

[SRISER]
