Here's the link for the harry potter one. I can't seem to find pics of the butterfly scambait.

That was funny, lol!!!
Good to see them getting a taste of the havoc they cause.
Like others said, I cannot understand how people actually believe these emails- they are so transparent and obvious!!!!
There is that commercial that shows how if someone came walking up to you at random and said this, you would think it was ridiculous so why is it believable in an email.
