Scamming by 13-yo kids? The content of the letter can't possibly have been thought up by an adult. 13 year old kid? Nigerian scammer? Yeah same education and IQ levels probably.  This email is hilarious. Thanks for sharing it. LOL.

I especially like how they start trying to make it appear as an official document and then throw in choice street language such as "do you get me!!!???"
Very convincing.

Honestly, I'm starting to lose my fate in man kind. First Dancing With The Stars, and now people falling for this things... Are we *that* stupid? I just can't believe someone would fall for it, but, evidently, some people do, otherwise they wouldn't send them... Gosh, we are so freaking dumb. +1 to that. Unbelievable. LMFAO Thank's for the cheer-me-up.

I wish I could remember it, but there was this website where this guy had one of these dudes going for a really long time, replying back and forth, and he posted up all of the email exchanges between the two of them. It was pretty hysterical.

then we would first send a letter to the MAYOR of the city where you reside and direct them to close your bank account until you have been jailed and all your properties will be confiscated by the FBI,CIA and other enforcement agency. For the love of god...NOT THE MAYOR! Everyone knows the Mayor of the city in which you reside (guess they forgot where you live) has the power to close your bank account. Then the worry of who gets all of your stuff...the FBI, CIA, and other enforcement agency (singular?)...there's going to be some fighting going on among them (NO! I want his HOTAS!). I love this stuff!  *Edit* Just caught that you're in Singapore...even better! Now you have to get money exchanged for US dollars for the $98...oh wait, they can't touch you!

Man I'm losing hope too, even the Fbi can't tell how to use "suppose" vs "supposed".

LOL. Yeah I liked that too Weasel. The Mayor in the town in which you reside will be closing your bank account.
And don't forget, this FBi agent appreciates your CO-OPERATION
