Who wouldn't fall for such a clever trick?

An Italian couple stole 50,000 euros from a woman in the Sicilian city of Palermo after convincing her they were vampires who would impregnate her with the son of the Anti-Christ if she did not pay them.

The man, a cabaret singer, and his girlfriend took the money from their victim over four years by selling her pills at 3,000 euros each that they said would abort the Anti-Christ's son.

Police uncovered the fraud after the 47-year-old woman's family became concerned when they discovered she had spent all her savings, local news agencies AGI and ANSA reported.

I don't know why, but I'm still stunned by the stupidity of some people.

A few more idiotic examples

Amazing. Now that's a movie plot if I've ever heard one! If it was done as a combination of humor and B-movie horror, it'd be great. I'd pay to see it, it only for the wierdness factor.

They've certainly worked wonders for yours truly.

I have been enjoying those cash payments in non-sequential $100.00 bills too.

Good site Jellin - I about spit my coffee when I read this one:

From: someone

They say that if a person has a pet cat and dies, if the person's body is not found fairly soon after death, the cat, having not been fed, will become ravenously hungry and eat the dead person's face off — JUST the face!

Is this true? My cat often looks me in the face. I used to think he was just being friendly. Now I know he's just sizing me up, like a chef at a butcher shop, waiting for "the big day". Since hearing this rumor, every time my cat licks his chops it gives me the willies!

Wish I could anwer this one, I'd send them to this site: http://www.mycathatesyou.com/

Yea, but what if we're wrong and she's really gonna give birth to the Anti-Christ? Wouldn't that be a small price to pay to be on the safe side?

This one is my favorite:

From: someone

I've heard that it is impossible to take a lightbulb out of your mouth once one puts it in, without either breaking the bulb or dislocating the jaw.

Do you know if this is true? I'm counting on you - my husband is really curious, and I don't want to have to drive him to the hospital...

WTF is C3PO supposed to be USEFUL for anyway, besides whining? Stupid piece of scrap metal would be more useful recycled as a toaster. But even that would suck, because who would want to listen to a whining wussy toaster? Is he gold plated? If that's the case he should just be melted down into gold ingots. Help the economy some, and stop being so damn useless you stupid bucket of bolts! R2 is 1,000 times more useful than your tin man ass, and he's shaped like a salt and pepper shaker FFS!
