Interesting article.
It just fascinates me that reasonably intelligent people can be so easily conned. I occasionally get "junk" emails (too frequently lately) but I never open them, even though my natural curiosity wants to just take a look, but I am very aware that I could infect my computer with a worm, so I resist.
I can, sort of, understand the psychology as to why people get caught up in such scams and am very thankful that I have a healthy dose scepticism (or is that cynicism?), despite having an innate curiosity.
