The authors of the book Superfreakonomics point out that these emails are specially tailored to fool only the MOST GULLIBLE readers. So if you didn't buy it, it worked perfectly.
It's the same with telemarketing: if it didn't work on at least some level, no one would do it.
I hope you jumped right on this great opportunity, Bill. It's a chance to get rich and stymie the fraudsters.
Don't forget to also send your bank information including password and PINS, and your Social Security number.
I don't want to screw this up. It's the FBI. What could possibly go wrong?
Your government tax dollars at work. At last we are getting something for it.
Damn you, Fraud Stars! Take that.

I've always found these entertaining. Pretty fascinating the variations these go through.
