  • FBI has $6.1 million for me!

    I wanted to share my good fortune. I just got an e-mail from Robert S. Muller III from the FBI. I'm apparently due to receive $6.1 million dollar settlement from some overseas fraud that I was a victim of. All I need to do is contact these people and pay a $350.00 fee to collect the money. What a bargain.

    Pfft! That's nothing. I'm getting 30% of the former dictator of the Rebublic of Congo's fortune simply by letting his widow transfer the funds through my bank account (or something like that). It was a VERY official sounding email. I'm so happy!

      Oh yeah? Well, according to a Nigerian prince, I'm a member of his royal family! And when I loan him that measly $40k so he can process his legal fees to reclaim his family fortune or something like that, he says he's going to bring me home and we're all going to live the good life! Yeah!

          Here is the tale of someone who decided to scam the scammers, a very satisfying story to read, even if somewhat lengthy.

                  That's nothing! I was recently contacted by someone in the Nigerian royal family and he says all I have to do is give him my bank account information and he'll wire me $30,000! Ka-ching!

                  LOL
