The website and the idea are really great. I can only advise everyone who doesn't know what 419 scam is to read this.
The sad truth though is that it works, there are people who still fall for this (419 scam) and there are also people who buy stuff when they see advertisement in their inbox (ad emails) - even if it's only 1 in 10000 it is enough.
