Funny scam emails received.
Maybe you could share yours (copy and paste)? Here's a recent one I got.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

EMAIL:

I am a banker here in Cambodia with CIMB BANK. I contacted you for this reason , one of our late customer have the same family name as yours . He died more than Six years ago and left, 10.7 million United States dollars in his account Since then no relative have come to claim this money.I think we can work things out,that will benefit both of us,if only you are interested.

Unfortunately, The customer died with his family in a car crash during summer holiday of 2012 in France. His account mandate does not have any contact of any of his relatives as next of kin. I have made several inquiries to his embassy to locate any of his relatives
without any success, I have been mandated by my bank management to provide the next of kin to his account.As his account manager that If I don't get any of his relatives in 29 days the account balance of $10.700,000 will be returned to the government treasury Since you have the same family name with the late account holder and I cannot find any of his relatives, I now seek your consent to present you as the next of kin to the late account holder. You and I will share the money 50/50 ratio after the money is transferred to you. I think this is fair decision instead of the Cambodian government taking the money. I was his personal account manager before he died , I have all the vital information for us to claim the money without any problem.
I only worry about your ability to keep this transaction secret to protect my job. The transaction is 100% risk free as I have studied and investigated the transaction properly as a professional banker and discovered that it's risk free before making contact to you.

If you are interested reply and I will tell you what we need to do. next on this email:

Thanks
Yours sincerely,
Mr. Kim Kyung Jik

Oh it was the other day I got a call about having some kind of accident, and so I proceeded to ask them to hold for a minute and went to bed. The next morning I came down to an angry voicemail from the man telling me I'd ran up his phone bill.

Sweet justice.
A few years ago I got an Email from a co-worker called Emily. Emily had been eyeing me for months, and finally worked up the courage to ask me out. Unfortunately Emily was very poor and couldn't afford a taxi to meet me.

"Hmmm" I thought. "That's strange"

Because just below that was an email from another co-worker of mine, called Karen. Karen had also been eyeing me for months and had also - on the very same day - worked up the courage to confront me, and through incredible co-incidence was in exactly the same predicament as poor Emily.

And just below Karen's email was another one from yet another female co-worker, called Susan. Susan too was finally overcoming her shyness and wanted to go out, and apologetically asked taxi money.

I stared at the screen at a moment in puzzelement. Afterall - I didn't actually have a co-worker called Emily... ...Or Karen... ...Or Susan.
Hello, this is (insert name) from a (some sort of miltary organisation). We currently have an operation to help refugees. If you can kindly donate please do.

It was in my spam folder.
Oh I wish that I'd gotten a screenshot of the one *truly* pathetic phishing email I got a while back. It was epic in how many tick-marks you'd have on the 'checklist of how to identify phishing'. Badly spelled, really bad grammar, punctuation? what's that?

I got another more recently supposedly from Paypal but lol it was literally half broken because they didn't understand how the "insert your generic message / link here" code worked.
I heard they deliberately badly spell messages so they only get vulnerable (aka 'simple') people to deal with if follow up conversations happen. It makes complete sense as you wouldn't waste your time trying to fool someone who is a chess champion or invented the internet.

Regarding phone calls. Yeah, leave the **** hanging for weeks! Even better, change your phone number to a premium number and start making money.
