Greetings my friends
I love 419 and other scam emails, probably because I am
unlikely to fall for them.
I have no worries in the length department – well, at least I
have nothing to compare my own against, so I am able to ignore most of the
herbal treats that come my way.
When it comes to the money offers, I know I don’t earn oodles
of cash but I can always afford to eat (porridge and ramen noodles). So I am
not that bothered about countless millions being deposited in my account.
Nevermind the fact that most of the mails are woefully bad. This
morning's choice mail comes from Mr ignatius Account Officer, Capital Trust
Bank – which is a strange name indeed. Mr Account Officer has a certified international
bank draft for me worth $1,200,000.00, which he says he cashable everywhere in
the world.
CASHABLE?! I will have that in fivers, please…
Not really, I don't have a briefcase large enough to drag
that out of the bank. So instead I will offer it to you, dear readers.
You can mail Mr Officer at ignatius_uju@myway.com if you want to
get involved. As he says, "Please I will like you to accept this tokenwith
good faith as this is from the bottom of my heart."
In the meantime I really hope that no spam spiders get hold of the address and clog his mailbox up. I would hate to think that he couldn't get the responses from people that he was looking for.
