Get a load of this e-mail I just recieved.....

Subject: You knows


"Good day,dear Vincent! One more time,I ask You to excuse my
bad English))) A few days ago I almost lost Your e-
mail,cause my computer was breaked,but now all OK,as You
can see.I am OK,the money from Your Baltic partners are
received by me.Of course,in that time I shall not a bank
transfer,becauce I dont want to excite Your fiscal
administration))) I put all money at credit card
account «VISA”.And now I can send this card to You or to
that man,whose name and adress You inform me.I shall send
card by Fedex or DHL or others of Your choice.Already I ve
get my unassuming per cents,but I think Your 87500$ make
glad ever You))) (By the way,it is more than You
awaited,isnt it?)))
I hope I shall not teach You to use credit card VISA)))
Moneys recipient (You or Your man) will be absolutely
anonymous for US goverment,because this
card was opened for fiction person in Russia.Its a nice
scheme,isnt it?Of course,it will be a some expensive,than a
bank transfer,just a little,but I think its a better for me
and You. So,during this week,I am waiting an information
from You about name and adress of man,who I shall send the
card.

Now lets about a rest.Vincent! I
ask You to inform Your Partners from Estonia,they must
prepare a new contracts about road-building,but not about
marketing or audit,becauce it will be more convenient for
me.(the Russian Laws is always changing).However,i am not
sure You understand what I say
about)))
How is the weather where You lives? Our weather is bad now,its very
cold.I hope it will better after our President elections)))
I shall always very glad to talk with You not about
business,but You are always busy.Write me at this e-mail at
any time,as You wants.Best reggards! Always
Yours,Nicolai.

P.S. Pin-code from card I send You at this e-mail or send with "




....creative anyways. disguising it as an e-mail ment for someone else but leaving enough of a loophole so someone might think they can take advantage of the situation.

These people never cease to amaze (and amuse) me.

Have a good one,

Dan
(or maybe Vincent if I am so inclined)

You never know the fish you are going to catch, but if you look at the bait, you can guess.

Sounds like a good message to delete!

Sounds like something from Da Ali G show.

To paraphrase somebody, (at my age I can't remember who anymore, maybe P.T.Barnum?), it's hard to scam an honest man!

I believe PT also said "There's a sucker born every minute". To complete the statement add "And two born to take him" (statement credit to my father, one of his favorites).
