Pure NIGERIAIN Scam Email

Thursday, May 29th, 2008

Here’s the best example of the purest Nigerian Scam email letter seen to date by our editors!

Let’s see…What is 30% of $11,9000,000? (Don’t bother, it will never happen!)

Would I really make that much? (Absolutely NOT!)

Are they going to want to charge me a $81.35 fee for bank document? (If you waste time by answering them, probably more, and much more if you send them any bank account information, dummy!)

What should I do?
(Delete it, set your email filter to label it as SPAM!!!)

For me?

How wonderful and generous (it seems).

Wonder why he didn’t use my name and instead called me SIR/MADAM?

Will the check also be made out to SIR/MADAM?

IS this a scam? Duh?
