Thank goodness!
I can use this money, as there seems to be a problem getting at the TEN MILLION USA DOLLARS that Ori Gato from the Nigerian oil ministry knows about. Various fees and stuff. You know, modalities.
The opinions of this poster are largely based on facts and portray a possible version of the actual events.
They can look most authentic, and there is always some small detail that reveals them as a scam. For example, just had a PayPal one that finishes 'best regard', and one recently from HMRC (Tax revenue) finishing with 'best wishes' words which I'm sure is not in the taxman's vocabulary!
Still awaiting a receipt for monies sent as 'gesture of goodwill' sent to 'Yasser Arafat's widow' and the marine that found 'millions of dollars in the hole where he found Saddam'.
Sad thing is, that these and mainly postal scams are targeted at the elderly who retain some degree of trust.

Well you know, budget cuts and all. Yahoo charges really cheap to host email services.

David, since the UNCC was created to award damages to those that suffered loss in the '91 Gulf War, I didn't realize you had assets in that area that were damaged/affected back almost 20 years ago! Wow, you should use that ATM right now.
The sad part is that those red flags that pop up quite clearly for us --- Yahoo email address, Western Union payment, spelling/grammar errors, etc --- don't do so for a lot of other people. There must still be some good business doing this scam; ironic how it's warning you about other scams as well.
It never occurred to me before and for those that may not have encountered him, James Veitch, a British comedian, offers an interesting approach to deal with spammers...
He also has some other videos that are extremely amusing too. Have a look for the one about the room mate and the ducks.

Yep! It's called Darwinism.
