419er Baiting
The recreational psychotorture that's kind of okay, because the victim was trying to scam you in the first place.
Exhibit A: 419er is conned into commissioning and mailing a carved wooden bust of the target/baiter, then into staging a videotaped re-enactment of Monty Python's parrot sketch.
Exhibit B: There are no words.

Heh! It's not the first time. You'd be surprised how many H419 posts have been raped for column inches by the SMH.
(Actually Metafilter is first with the news. We're second. Then Fairfax is a late third.)
