So yeah, I just received a scam on here via PM, from username rosinxs.

Which is pretty puzzling to me because it seems like a lot of work for potentially little outcome *shakes head*

Well I've claimed the 1.2 million dorrah on offer, I'll split it with you if you promise to spend it in serving The Lord. That way I can spend my half on hookers and coke without feeling too guilty.

[Bartek]

I feel so ignored, almost as Finland, A poor second to Belgium.

[Squeakymouse]

Yes I got one of those too...

[Alex66]

I got this BS:

Dearest in the lord,
I am Mrs. Roseline Henry from Sierra Leone, When my late husband was alive, he deposited the sum of $1.2 Million (USD) dollars in a Local Bank here in Lome, Togo. I have being diagnosed with esophageal cancer and my Doctor told me that it is a delicate situation and having known my conditions, I have decided to donate this fund to a good person that will utilize this money the way I am going to instruct herein. I want you to be the caretaker and use this fund for orphanages, widows and also propagating the word of God and to endeavor that the house of God is maintained. Assure me that you will act accordingly as I stated herein and reply me immediately at rhenri1955@outlook.com

Thanks and remain blessed in the Lord.

Ms.Roseline Henry

So I thought if I blew the lot on holidays, nice furniture and meals etc as my wife has a high possibility of being a widow at some point (17 yrs diff) Im spending it on widows right?

[rien]

What if you mis-read it and spend it on windows instead? Mean they're a handy thing to have, windows.

[markfiend]

I've banned her. Thanks for bringing it up.

[Phil]

I got one too. It's always nice to get post. I've got high hopes for this one, almost as much as this one...



All together now...

Take your protein pills and..

Not quite as catchy is it?

Especially since the windows in the house of God are all in need of replacement. Not to mention the flashing, missing slates, the boiler's on its last legs and that avocado bathroom suite has got to go. There's a mate of a bloke I know reckons he can do the whole thing for $1m cash, so the widows and orphans are going to have make do with a long weekend in Cleethorpes at Miss Orfly-Stingy's B&B (no women in the rooms, doors locked between 10am and 4pm, and at 10pm sharp, limit of 2 slices of toast p/p) in February.

you are all too late, I contacted already contacted her. As soon as the money hits my account I'm using it to fund the new record (or the second coming, whichever happens first)

[eastmidswhizzkid]

hmmph ive been here longer or at least as long as all the above posters (MF excepted) and i've never been sent any spam, spam and eggs, spam and scam, nigerian scam and spam, nigerian spam, spam, albatross with chips and spam, egg,chips and spam or spam surprise (only ingredient is spam).

ive had a few snide wankers from the various offspring of mr and mrs James Ray (snr) trying to threaten me/back down from threatening my friends/carry on the "von is gay" yawn-thread of yesteryear but apart from them its always been some bloody scrounging goth demanding the wild plants from my garden that i apparently owe them.

[stufarq]

But she trusted you to use it for windows and orphanages!

But also for " propagating the word of God" or The Sisters of Mercy. Just perhaps a different Sisters.

[million voices]

I am a bit confused

Is it right there's been a rumour from Nigerian ground Control?

Oh no don't say it's true

Major Abache Tunde wants to come home now that he's heard that Mrs Rosaline Henry's husband is dead

I hope the shrieking of nothing doesn't break too many windows

[Microcosmia]

I got that one from rosinxs too and like a previous poster I thought she might be on the wrong Sisters of Mercy forum

[eastmidswhizzkid]

like a previous poster I thought she might be on the wrong Sisters of Mercy forum

whichever way you look at it she definitely was.

[abridged]

I remember in the days before t'internet I would get the occasional letter addressed to the 'Kommandant' of the gallery I worked in. Did my power-crazed bit of ego no harm!

[emilystrange]

it'll still never happen.

[lordofthepies]

That's right, because it was actually me who contacted her first.

[eastmidswhizzkid]

so it's you that's blown it for us all! nice one PieLord, cheers.

[Poisonheart]

Well, she replied and said I could either have the millions of quids or I could give her 500 quid for a Damage Done with the cross not visible on the front cover, so I went for the latter. What a nice lady!
