This can be good fun. If you have the time, here's a set of "Noble Experiments" from the Banterist where the writer actively engages and enrages a scammer:

Part I

Part II

Part III

more

and more

Or, if you are time limited, here's a more recent direct version:
There's something about Mary

I quote one of his replies:

Quote:
If you can pay my travel expenses I can meet you. I have not been to the Ivory Coast. Ironically - these are the names of two brands of soap. I would be happy to travel anywhere in Africa unless they require several immunization shots. In that case, I could always meet in a nice European town like Dusseldorf or Schwarzkopf.

To address your concerns:

Knowledge: I attended DeVry Institute, so enough of that!

Wisdom: Both my grandparents are alive, and they tell me their stories. I grow from these, as does anyone who listens to their grandparents talk about life, coupons and history.

Trust: I am very trustworthy. If you ask any of my friends they will tell you that I can be trusted with millions of dollars, or just to return their phone calls in a reasonable amount of time. Trust is trust no matter in what regard.

Sincerity: That's how I end all my letters. I am sincere and mean well.
I usually end up in tears at some point...
