Got this in my hotmail inbox today:

"My Dear Friend, As you read this, I don't want you to feel sorry for me, because, Ibelieve everyone will die someday.My name is USMAN IBRAHIM I am amerchant of Saudi Arabia nationality but presently residing in london. Ihave been diagnosed with Esophageal cancer .It has defiled all forms ofmedical treatment, and right now I have only about a few months to live,according to medical experts. I have not particularly lived my life so well, as I never really cared for anyone(not even myself)but my business. Though I am very rich, I was never generous, I was always hostile to people and only focused on my business as that was the only thing I cared for. But now I regret all this as I now know that there is more to life than just wanting to have or make all the money in the world. I believe when God gives me a second chance to come to this world I would live my life a different way from how I have lived it. Now that God hascalled me, I have willed and given most of my property and assets to myimmediate and extended family members as well as a few close friends.Iwant God to be merciful to me and accept my soul so, I have decided togive alms to charity organizations, as I want this to be one of the last good deeds I do on earth. So far, I have distributed money to some charity organizations in the Oman, Algeria and Malaysia. Now that my health has deteriorated so badly, I cannot do this myselfanymore. I once asked members of my family to close one of my accounts and distribute the money which I have there to charity organization inBulgaria and Pakistan, they refused and kept the money to themselves.Hence, I do not trust them anymore,as they seem not to be contended with what I have left for them. The last of my money which no one knows of is the huge cash deposit of Ten million dollars $10,000,000 that I havewith Security company. I will want you to help me collect this deposit and dispatche it tocharity organizations. I have set aside 30% for you and for your time. God be with you. Thanks, Mr Usman Ibrahim"


This is not the first time I recieve a mail like this, strange thing is i dont visit any middle eastern sites like goat-shavers anonymous etc
Cracks be up to read this mail, I wounder if they're able to feel people...


Dont mess with God, he can impregnate your girlfriend/wife without taking his pants off!

report it as spam.

If you google consumer report and your country you prop find some sort of scam list. Scams like that I don't care because you would have to be pretty dumb to fall for it. I hate the ones where they say you won something. Those ones suck because you stay on the line and it sounds legit (esp if you filled out a contest somewhere) and then in the end you find you have to pay like 1,000 in taxes and surcharges. You are support to report them but their tel no comes up as 000-000-0000. Motherfuckers

Some people actually have fun with them and answer them. Make the other guy do all this running around, ask them stupid questions. Then they post everything. Some of them were really funny. One was with a Nigerian minister.

I had one telling me I was part of a wealthy christian man's will who lived in S Africa and that he died. Of course I don't even have a single friend from S Africa let alone someone who would put me of all people in their will. The scammer asked me to mail him my drivers license and my Social security card and my bank info while claiming to be the deceased's lawyer. So I decided to email him out of curiosity if he would answer back while knowing full well it was a scam.

Emails went back and forth a few times and he was giving lame answers to my questions. It was funny because he couldn't give any real answers to any of the questions like "why did he leave me money? I don't know him nor am I a christian" I kept bugging him with questions like How did the deceased die , Where was deceased when he died, What was his address and the deceased address , anything I could think of I asked him and he always gave the worst answers that never actually answered anything and everything he typed was in such horrible English.

So eventually I decided to try to throw him completely off guard by baiting him and asking if any land was included in my part of the will. Of course he answers yes hoping that he would convince me to send what he wants. I then reply in a excited manner and tell him that I am in the army (which I was at the time) and that I had some leave time and it just so happens that a military aircraft is going down there soon and I could hop aboard it for free and that I would be down there next week and I would like to see the land and sign for everything personally and asked for his law offices address. The guy sends this loooong email trying to convince me not to go there with out ever stating a single reason not to and once again asks me to mail what he requests. At this time I grew bored of him and simply replied one last time and told him to give the money to charity. He never emailed me again.

HAH! I remember my girlfriend once phoning me and she was all hyped up because of an e-mail from Microsoft informing her that she had won 1 million $ in the Microsoft Office Lottery. God, i laughed so hard at her.
