caughtspam


Your spam, Nigerian scam among others, will now be tagged and moved to
caughtspam, make sure the caughtspam directory or mbox exists
beforehand.  *REPORT YOUR SPAM*.  http://spamcop.net/ can help with
this, you should also forward with headers to uce@ftc.gov if you're in
the US at the very least, there's also a few other government email
addresses for reporting specific kinds of spam, like financial scams
such as the ones you speak of.

Good luck in fighting spam, it's a worthwhile cause, don't lose hope.
