Hi LeeryLarry, thank you for posting.

While I do understand that these emails are irritating and the people behind them contemptible, we don't send spam for a variety of reasons. First is that spamming mail boxes is a violation of the Terms of service of any mail provider. Next is that if you spam this email address for the scammer, he's just going to open up a new one in a matter of minutes and continue sending out his emails. You'll really not damage him at all and the new email address he uses won't be listed here, while the one he is currently using IS listed here by you now and will show up in searches if potential victims take the time to look. It's better to keep the scammers using the same addressses as over time there will be more and more information about them on anti scam sites like ours.

Have you sent a payment to a scammer with Western Union and now realize it's a scam? If the payment has not been picked up, you can cancel it immediately! 1-800-448-1492
