Grand Larceny anyone?

I'm gonna buy me a bridge in NYC too!!!

I have some lovely Ocean front property in Arizona for sale if anyone is interested... just forward me your social security number, and copy of your drivers license, and ...

I get offers like yours all the time Russell.  I am constantly winning the "email lotto" or some lotto in another country, or someone has decided to name me as a beneficiary and their will was just read.  Yup... gotta love it.  I prefer my spam fried in a sandwich with cheese than in my inbox! 

It's getting crazier and crazier everyday with these scams.  I get about 5 a day.  I don't read them anymore.  I just delete.

I'll start reading them and submit the ones I think are funny, Russell

Iw ent through some of my junk mail and found these two:

I am an investment consultant working with UBS International Holdings BV
in the Netherlands. I will be happy to work a transaction of $8.5million
out with you if you have a corporate or personal bank Account. If you are
interested, get back to me via my private email for further informations;

The second one:

is to notify you that we have your fund of USD$1,500,000.00 with us here in the UNITED NATIONS COMPENSATION COMMISSION WEST AFRICA and your email is among the beneficiary of the said fund. Due to your late response to our email and this transaction, there is someone here who said he is from your country and he says he is the owner of the fund. He said he ready to pay for the procurement of the legal documents which is $195 for the release of the found to him,he said is going to pay the $195 dollars . He has been held right away for verification purpose, for us to know if he is the real owner of this fund. Since the fund belongs to you we have to write you to let you know. About this serious issue that is going now.

This meeting was first held on the 8th of April 2003. You can view this page for your perusal:

You Know, I'm not sure why, but I never get emails like that, guess I should thank my lucky stars.

I guess I didn't get back to MS Blenda soon enough, since she only had two days to leave.  Bless her heart.

Dear friend,

I am Mrs Blenda  Amos and i have been surffering from ovarian cancer disease and the doctor says that i have just two days to leave.I am from (Ottawa) Canada but based in Africa Burkina Faso since eight years ago as a business woman dealing with gold exportation.Now that i am about to end the race like this,without any family members and no child.I have $3 Million US DOLLARS in Islamic Development Bank (IDB) Burkina Faso which i instructed the bank to give St Andrews Missionary Home in Burkina Faso.But my mind is not at rest because i am writting this letter now through the help of my computer beside my sick bed.

I also have $4.5Million US Dollars at Ecobank here in Burkina Faso and i instructed the bank to transfer the money to the first foreigner that will apply to the bank after i have gone that they should release the fund to him/her,but you will assure me that you will take 50% of the money and give 50% to the orphanages home in your country for my heart to rest.You are to contact the bank through this email address  ecobankplc_faso@financier.com

Yours fairly friend,
Madam Blenda Amos.

I guess the doctor told her she had two days to leave the hospital maybe.  She probably couldn't pay the bill without me giving her my bank account number.  Here's to Ms Blenda.

Open up a gmail, hotmail, or other random free email account and they'll start rolling into your spam box and you can join us Cam.    I don't get too many in my "normal" email account.
