I cannot believe how stupid people can be to believe someone is going to give them money or assist them in some way (The Argus, November 5).

I have received dozens of these scam emails and promptly forwarded them to the fraud department at NCIS which covers this area of crime.

Another scam is asking for an invitation to attend a conference in this country.

They fax you, ask for an invite and, when they get to England don't bother to return. Sound familiar?
