Oh my god, you are getting some crap through today aren't you.

I'd set up a new email address and email him back asking him if he knows Piers Morgan.

Sometimes one or 2 emails creep through the filter but the others go straight to the bin in room 101

Makes me laugh that any of these crap scams can ever work.

So I have to look in to my hotmail account (which I only use for MSN messenger) for fun

Swap you r hotmail account for a Yahoo account and it dumps this sort of crap straight into a spam/bulk folder which doesnt contribute towards your storage balance.
