That's how they get you - they appeal to the human nature of wanting to get something for nothing. It's even worse when there's a sob-story attached, or add in a smattering of religious dogma.

If the scam is going to a site to capture log in details, you can enter the actual IP/web address into a whois search and find out who owns the domain. Chances are it's an off-shore place where you can't touch them.

Sneaky SOBs...
