I've had some fun scam-baiting a few times, never really led to anything too significant, but I was just in it for the fun.
If you're read some of the various scam-baiter sites, then you'll see that the basic formula is some combination of convincing the scammer that you are totally bought in, without seeming overly anxious. Led THEM along, let THEM start to count on the money, and then throw a wrench into the mix. Get them to send you a small sum of money <$101, to cover postage for something. Get a real address to ship them something, verify the address and then alert the local authorities.
