Ooh ooh ohh. Have a look at a website called www.whatsthebloodypoint.com, and it's got loads of stories on it from people who had a bit of fun with these scammers and lead them on a bit. Some of them even got the scammers to send THEM money!!
As long as you don't give out your bank details they can't do anything to you, so have fun with them and waste a bit of their time. It'll stop them contacting other people who might be a bit more gullible than you.
