Corey. Yes, normally I would to, but this nasty evil piece of work has a hidden bonus for you, you get seriously infected with not one but three different types of viruses & trojans. Unless you have a very high level of Internet protection & expensive high speed virus protection software. (not just McAfee & Norton) Doing that will lead toyour PC being whitewashed. It will be as clean as your whites on laundry day. So that was why I warned everyone about this one & the PayPal one & did not put in the full URLs as I'm guessing a lot of Adlandpro members PC's would crash if they clicked on these email click able URLs. This seems to be a new breed of phishing scammers, getting together with the virus merchants.

Arthur. These scams are not just from bored kids anymore. Large organsied gangs of criminals are using these tactics to get their hands on peoples identitys & then sell them to the highest bidders throught the Middle East & Eastern Europe. It is a pain to us to have an account wiped out to the tune of a few thousand dollars, but to people over there, it is a few years income. So to answer you, yes they are making money, big money. The last lot of figures I saw for the Nigerian scam mails was in the billions......
