For the love of my sanity, can we STOP posting these kinds of threads?

Nobody forced me to click but it takes damn valuable space in the forums already.

I say the mods should ban the next idiot that post either the current ebay or paypal scam notices.

Also have a notice from this Nigerian guy that wants to contact you about a fund transfer.
