Good for you guys! I also like toying with them but it did bite me once as the scammer repeatedly called back for over an hour. I laughed it all off however as I knew I got him good!

There are some funny vids on Youtube where other's, like us, also have some fun with them. I particularly like this one from Tom Mabe.

I suppose, like dealing with less than desirable collector card sellers/dealers, these scams will continue as honest people get sucked in quite often which keeps these people in business, sadly.
$9,000 lost, alone was mentioned in this vid.
