I've just been spammed out of the blue by a bunch of get-rich twats asking if I have any banknoted eight year olds I'd like to hand them for a month or two, in exchange for exposure to competitive stock market trading games using live feeds and pretend million-buck balances.

Would anyone like to discuss the extent to which this sort of thing is considered good form?

If I had any idea what you're talking about, maybe. What is a banknoted 8 year old? A child? I'd stay away from the child slavery trade if I were you.

It reads like pretty plain English to me:

I've just been spammed out of the blue: I had no previous contact with these gits

by a bunch of get-rich twats: I don't know who they are but they want to take lots of money in exchange for this deal of theirs - why I can't tell, if they're good at trading on the exchange

asking if I have any banknoted eight year olds: do I control the fate of any eight year old children who command financial resources - quite likely my bank account - capable of paying for this jaunt to the US for a couple of months

I'd like to hand them for a month or two: At the age of eight, mind you. For two months indoctrination into Capitalist dialectic. And, presumably, the efficient use of a calculator.

in exchange for exposure to competitive stock market trading games using live feeds and pretend million-buck balances.
