    It looks like the next version of the mails (as already mentioned by Bornish), where millions of $ are there, just for you. All you have to do is, just reply the e-mail, and if you do, you do get a response, few e-mail exchanges, and later you are asked to pay for some documentaiton and legal fee and the money will be yours. I don't know if anyone really fell in this trap or not, but I do get these mails alot. Don't know, if you mail him/her/whatever, I guess you'll get some response, and who knows, after sometime, he/she ask you to give him/her some money, so that she can pay you a vist. How sweet....and the.....Yuliya....Yuliya....where are you?

    Good question. Well,

    I'm not a burly person............STRIKE 1
    I don't have massive palms................STRIKE 2
    And I don't have a HAIRY chest (for godsake, I'm not a bear ).....STRIKE 3

    And last, but not least, I don't like Romanian male developers because of there looks but I do admire them because of there skills.

    NOTE: The last part is only applicable at Male Romanian Developers, for female developers, I haven't set my mind yet.........

    Don't count on it, Ejaz!
    Believe it or not, but I think I have the best story re junk mail. Check this one (I swear is true): Someone I know received an email about a wonderful product that "helps you with the ladies". The miraculous new invention was supposed to make some extension, and this guy it seems that wanted to become a "horse". So he goes home to his wife... and they have a little chat about it... and they decide to take advantage of the opportunity!
    So he replies to the junk mail, but he's still waiting for news. The funniest part is that he was very angry that he wanted to purchase the product but he didn't know how. He wrote them several times, but never receiving a reply. And as far as how do I know about all this... well, he was so mad that he told the story to many, complaining about how stupid are those ppl that don't know how to do bussiness: "Why did they send him an email in the first place, if they don't want clients?"

    Holly molly, is this real? Poor guy, I see how much pissed off he must be

    Ah! Barcelona!! That's where my passport was stolen. BTW you don't need to go Barcelona. There is a Tech Ed in KL in September. It is a shorter flight and accomodation may be less expensive.
