Of course people fall for it, you read about them all the time. I recently read about one woman who had gone into a good amount of debt after being strung along with one of these scams for a year or more.

 

Send them back an email, for fun, that says you have the $145 available, but your bank account is currently locked due to your identity having been stolen, and you need $50 to cover a fee to unlock the account while the bank and your credit card sort through the false transactions.

I remember listening to a This American Life episode where they interviewed these guys who string scammers like this along, but use very elaborate methods.  They ended up hooking one scammer for a few months and had him traveling through multiple countries in Africa.  It was crazy.
