Crazy Email I Received
 
I know you guys get these kind of spam emails all the time but this one is new to me. I guess people will never stop trying to swindle money out of people.


Hello Brethren,
My name is Susan Williams am a model.i seek your consent to a favour for me.The favour is that my agent is to pay me some money for the jobs i did for him, Now his owing me some money and he has decided to pay me with Money Order or check and i cannot cash the money order over here. And i am now disable due to a very terrible auto crash i had last year so am not elegible to talk or hear again and i can not move around like i use to do.So now am looking for any US or Canada CITIZEN that i can trust in helping me to cash the Money Order or check and i don't mind paying you 10% of the money because this has been a major problem for me so i want you to help me out of the problem.Take note that if any situation warrants me to talk to you over the phone, my elder brother (FJohnson) will be doing that on my behalf.

I Pray God almighty bless you as you help me with my problem and your prayer in my life is also needed.I will be very greatfull if you can help me out in cashing this money order or check.
God Bless.
Susan.

Nice, the Ngerians have a new twist, but it's the same old thing.

The sad part is that greedy or stupid or gullible people fall for this crap.

Yep...to the tune of $3b/yr! :eek:

P.T. Barnum was right.

It is a huge industry, apparently. And that's with horribly written stuff like that. Imagine what someone with half a brain, who could string two words together, could do.
