From the Mailbag
Everybody knows I love a good NIGERIAN SCAM EMAIL, which works out great considering I get SEVERAL of them every DAY.
I would have thought the whole SCAM email thing had long since faded away, but clearly our AFRICAN brethren are as busy as ever trying to entice me with promises of millions of UNITED STATES DOLLARS.
I love it when the emails come from BARRISTERS. Who doesn’t enjoy getting an email from a BARRISTER.
Generally I just DELETE them, but sometimes I’ll get one that’s so ridiculous I feel like I have to share it with YOU, my loyal READERS.
Below is an EXCERPT from an email some scammer sent ME, check it out…
Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI)
Anti-Terrorist And Monitory Crime Division.
Federal Bureau Of Investigation.
J.Edgar.Hoover Building Washington Dc
Customers Service Hours / Monday To Saturday
Office Hours Monday to Saturday:Dear Beneficiary,
Series of meetings have been held over the past 7 months with the secretary general of the UNITED NATIONS ORGANIZATION. This ended 3 days ago. It is obvious that you have not received your FUND which is to the tune of $850,000.00 due to past corrupt GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS who almost held the FUND to themselves for their selfish reason and some individuals who have taken advantage of your fund all in an attempt to swindle your fund which has led to so many LOSSES from your end and unnecessary delay in the receipt of your FUND.
I LOVE that this scammer made of point of mentioning that the FBI has “Customers Service Hours / Monday To Saturday…”
Um, yeah I’m pretty sure FBI’s customer SERVICE counter is CLOSED on Saturday.
LOVE it.
