The example I received was so poorly done that it
could have been funny.

It said "swiftpay.com is unable to forward the $974.50 someone
tried to send you."  There were several other lines in it, some of
which had "swiftpay.com" and some of which had "swiftspay.com."
It said that as soon as I click on the link provided and re-enter the
required information (name, credit card number, SSN, etc.),
quickpay.com would forward the money.

Swiftpay.com is a legitimate payment expediting business.
The link said www.swiftspay.com.   Stupid bastards.  Maybe
switfpay.com would have fooled a few exceptionally stupid
people like nemo or aozotorp.  Swiftpay.com is aware of
this scam.  They said they can't do anything about it, which
is no surprise, and asked me to forward the mail to local
law enforcement.

I wish someone would find all these people and fuck them up.

The "swiftspay" slime actually had working postmaster and
webmaster addresses.  I sent a reply suggesting that they
need to kill themselves immediately.  I didn't get a reply.  I
hope that's because they believed me.
