These are some emails between me and some guy trying to buy laptops with stolen credit cards. I get these kinds of emails all the time and I have tried to turn these people in to the credit card companies, but ends up being a big waste of time and nothing ever comes out of it. So now I just mess with them, I know it’s childless and pointless but it amuses me. The Bold text are my email responses. Also just for clarification I did not actually charge anything on the credit card numbers he supplied. Like I said I was just enjoying messing with him.

I guess you are not going to send me anymore credit card numbers. It's OK you did give me over 20K. I will think about you every day as I spend that money PS I bought a motorcycle today, it's a 97 Suzuki GSXR-750 for 5K is that I good deal? At this point I figured I was not going to get any responses from him so that was the last email I sent.
how do you know the cards are stolen? EDIT: i'm not saying they aren't stolen but how did you check that they where?
