I INHERITED $5.5 MILLION DOLLARS...

[Pookie]

Seriously, what the f**k is wrong with people! I get these types of emails in my "yahoo spam account" everyday. My favorite one's are when I find out that I am Nigerian I was thinking about contacting my local authorities to see if they can prosecute these f**ks, but I doubt they will investigate this.

If I ever become rich, Im giving money away this way. I know people fall for it, but I would get a good laugh out of it.

And here I was looking forward to a description of how you would create your own personal arcade.

Ya, cause most lawyers use FREE hotmail/live email acounts

You wouldn't believe how many people are stupid enough to fall for this garbage.

This reminds me of that Flight of the Conchords episode where Murray replies, sends the small fee, and the dude shows up to give him the money in person.

I was thinking of that episode when I read the first post. haha

I replied once and had them meet me in Scotland so I could hand over the fee they needed to free up the funds in person... I don't live in Scotland, the scammer actually got a plane and a coach from London.

Little known fact, few if any of these email originate in Nigeria 9.5 times out of ten they're from the same country as you, and if not they always know some one close so they can go to the bank with you (extraordinary) reply and see how long you can string them along... See if you can get them to travel across country.

Man, you just had to point that out before I could comment that the oceanic cable to Nigeria must have been fixed.

Damn the only thing the lord has ever told people to do for me is. . . bless my feet. Seriously. Some indian woman followed me while I was walking to school, chased me down and did the sign of the cross to my shoes.

Maybe thats her way of hitting on you?

And here i thought that we were all going to get a cut of this. I need that to get a car, and a PS3 perhaps... and to start a business... and, i could go on...
