I'm Gonna Be Rich!

OK, not really.

I just got my first copy of the Nigerian letter! I have had e-mail for years, but this morning, my first one -

Imagine how thrilled I am. Five million, all for my very own. What a way to start the New Year!

So, what I need are suggestions on how to spend the money.

Any takers?

Shodan

Dang! I thought you were going to tell us you won the 150 million Mega Millions. I was going to gently remind you that I’m your long lost…um…relative and ask you to share.:wink:

Join the club. I received a similar offer last month from some gentlemen in Zimbabwe.

Damn. All I ever get is offers to show me the p4r!s h!lt0n v!de0. Hello, do you not realize that by sending your spam to a gay.com email address you’re in all likelihood wasting your time?

I know, spammers don’t care, but damn if that address isn’t the only one where I get that particular spam

Well, I was considering spending some of the money on all the penis-enlargement offers I keep getting, but -

how much do they want for the Paris Hilton video?

That Loser! I can’t believe that he offered you the same deal he offered me! Hmmmph! Well, fine then, he can bloody well keep his money in his own country.

I’d suggest you spend at least some of the money on some extremely clever scheme designed to get even with spammers. I would propose such a scheme, but, unfortunately, I’m not that clever:)

You guys are going bonkers over 25 millidollars? Dudes, that’s like, two and a half cents! :smiley:

Tripler

Send me your email address and I’ll pass it along to them.

Heh. I just got a new one - from Holland. At least the grammar and spelling are correct in this one.

Pah. That Amsterdam guy’s only gonna let you funnel seven-and-a-half million dollars through your bank account. The Ngozi Ugo guy in the OP is going to let you funnel twenty-five milliopn dollaras through your bank account! Tell the Amsterdam guy to either up his bid or take a hike.

(dollaras? uh oh … sounds like a scam)

Do I hear $30M?



Going once…

Going twice…

WOW I’ve never even heard of e-mails like this! You learn something new every day.

I have NEVER recieved a Nigerian scam letter. I’m jealous! I want to know how to be rich too!
