The 419eater Community Pulls Some Legs

trusteR writes "Always in the pursuit to rid the world of 419 scams with new and often very entertaining strategies, the class of 419eater.com have set new records in making scambaiting an entertaining and funny artform. Shipping ANUS laptops, $$$, Death treats, Audio and lots of pictures." This beats the amusement value of a Captain Kirk passport; the scam-baiters here managed to get cash in the mail and get rid of some less-than-perfect hardware.

    Anyone noticed the recent uptick in screwball get-rich Internet companies?

    There's Google.com. Not screwball, but definitely get-rich Internet. Their stock is still crazy expensive.

    Shopping.com is another one of these IPO's that made big gains in value overnight. And their idea isn't even new - they just allow you to compare prices from many vendor.

    And now this one. They add the patents, but otherwise they are just a get-rich Internet company.

    I think this is Bubble #2.

    Posted by timothy in The Mysterious Future! donour (Donour Sizemore) writes "I recently bought a high-performance automobile that has a reputation for its tuning potential. Before making the purchase, I joined several online forums for enthusiasts in order to get a good reading on how happy people are with the particular model. I was amazed at the vibrant communities built around websites such as evolutionm.net and nasioc.com. A wealth of information is available, but the data is surrounded by noise. For every knowledgeable enthusiast, there are many more misinformed or incorrect speculators whose opinions usually spring from personal preference or a need to hear themselves talk. Enter David Vespremi's Car Hacks & Mods for Dummies." Read on for the rest of Sizemore's review.
