should I or shouldn't I ?

Here's an e-mail that I received this morning. Its tempting to engage in a bit of fun. But I just don't have the time right now. I guess that not everyone in the world knows about the scams as they're still trying it on.

If anyone is wondering what a scam email looks like, here is one.
