Well, i'm jobless, been checking craigslist out, and sending some emails. This particular one said it was local. They liked me. Too bad it's not actually local or a job i actually go to work at somewhere other than home (don't want to work from home). Indeed there's no "brondcleantech o computer systems" where i live. So, i wanted to find out more for ****s and giggles.

Not the best english, but not too shabby for scammers (i'm sure everyone's seen worse english from scammers, at least this one is fully understandable). They definitely don't detail what will be coming in the mail first, and i certainly don't see why i should send the difference in money to the shipping agent (the shipping agent gets paid by them to send the crap to me, the difference in money should be used by me to send the crap back).

Just basic scam. I would cash a fake check and get ****ed by a bank...in the ass. Meanwhile, they would make some profit off my sorry ass if i western unioned them the difference before i got ****ed.

Scammers are fair game. Do whatever with the email addresses.

Virus. Virus. VIRUS!

Email them the most malicious and destructive virus available to you. And perhaps cause them to get a visit from the 4Chan party van.

I'm not entirely sure what i want to do about it. Just that i know that i do. Taking suggestions for now.

Turn the scam back around on them.  Indicate that there is a fee for wire transfers through Western Union, and you will need them to send you an advance to cover the cost.  If that works, follow their playbook by indicating that there was trouble with the wire service, and you will need more money to get it sorted out.  See how long you can make them think you're the naive one, when you're the one getting their money.

@BlueFlames do bots really respond to that kind of thing, more or less even anything that has nothing to do with cash?

what would be the best way to acquire one, hack the US defenses because their online security has been routinely demonstrated to fail spectacularly, or buy $10 worth of dirty nukes(no offense) from russia not including travel fares?

its not rocket science (well the delivery system is, unless you can find some pissed off arab and a non-descript van).

I can already hear the intelligence agencies kicking your doors in...

[Klaustrophobia]

if the feds were actually listening in on our corner of the internet, nuke's account would have gone silent a LONG time ago.

It's obvious that he was put through their sleeper program, to track down others like himself.

If the botnet was set up by someone who actually wants your money, then that person will be monitoring some kind of point of contact, waiting for someone gullible to take the bait.

Nuke is a fine upstanding citizen of the soon to be "atom commonwealth".

Nuke seems to be my largest barrier when the time comes for me to conquer this world. You will be a worthy rival dictator, should I not be planning to eradicate you from orbit.   

[SpardaSon21]

World dictators are like Highlanders; there can be only one.  I'm sorry to say Nuke will probably win since FireSpawn isn't as psychopathic, and so unlikely to do large-scale purges of uncooperative elements or attract the necessary ruthless generals.  And of course, if Nuke nukes the world in defeat, he wins since that was his goal all along.

[Pred the Penguin]

Speaking of dictators, a lot of them are a lot like scam artists.

Be sure to nuke-proof your orbital vehicle.
