Well allow me to retort James. You may stand corrected. First, I was not complaining about getting letters from 24 year olds. (This pleases me) I was merely stating the obvious. Trust me Jimbob, there are more than a few. Pop quiz! Let’s put your trained eye to the test shall we? Here is a copy of a letter I received just recently:
Dearest One,
Please i decided to write you because i have no other alternative.
Since after the death of my father in the hands of the rebels i have been in a very big difficulty of how to safeguard the money that my father left for me before his death because,the money is too much that i am afraid i dont know how and where to start to go about it.
Please if you can help me try to reply me urgently and i will tell you how much and explain more to you and we can discuss fully and God will always bless you for your help whch i know you shall never regret as i am going to take you as my father. I am Waiting eagerly to hear from you. Please reply to (ultakeitinthebuttandlikeit@yahoo.com)
Sincerely 36065
Now I put it to you Jimmy, real or scam????? ………….....................(hint: Andy knew the answer) Times up James! No, I’m sorry J, that’s not correct.
This was a scam!
For future reference:
A. If there email address starts with dream4u , littlefox, sadangel ‘ _________4you or anything else self centered = scammer
B. When the letter starts with: Please i decided to write you because i have no other alternative = scam
C. When the Nigerian Oil company exec uses a dating service to confide in you.
D. When after the third time you’ve told them you do not wish to pay for their visa, the cost of the visa actually goes down in price = scam
E. When you can see American land marks in the back ground of their photos= scam
F. When ever they use the word “Western Union” in a sentence = scam
G. When they use the fact that they make tasty pies as a marketing ploy. (not sure about that one yet)
Now see how many you get. Your welcome!
