It's time for the Australian Government to take immediate action against these sorts of spam emails.
Innocent internet users are being constantly defrauded by these Nigerian-type scammers who seek their personal and financial details to completely strip their bank accounts.
As with other objectionable internet material, the Australian Government has the clear constitutional power under section 51 of the Australian Constitution to force ISP's to stop these bogus emails at the border.
Internet users and their families are being hurt financially - sometimes losing their entire life savings to these internet predators.
It's time for the Government to act on behalf of all Australians.
Contact your Federal Member today and call your local state or territory police if you are a victim of these callous fraudsters.
A current list of Members of Federal Parliament is available at -
MP's: http://www.aph.gov.au/house/members/memlist.pdf
SENATORS: http://www.aph.gov.au/senate/senators/contacts/los.pdf
To let the Federal Government know that you want them to ban these scams, email the Federal Minister for Broadband, Communications and the Digital Economy Senator the Hon Stephen Conroy at: senator.conroy@aph.gov.au
Warn your friends about these scams, especially new internet users who may not be aware that these types of sophisticated frauds are operating in Australia.
