    Help me come up with some hilarious ways to screw with them.

    I got a letter in the mail from "us airlines" saying i won free plain tickets yada yada yada, its an obvious scam or phishing attempt. A quick google search of the phone number on the letter to claim my "prize" confirmed it.

    I want to have some fun with it and screw with the people...any ideas?

    Does it have a return envelope? If so, get a box, put brinks in it and tape the return envelope on top. Send it back to them and make them pay shipping.

    Yea, not my idea, got it off the web...

    No return envelope, just a phone number to call.
