dumba$$e$....lol......

[BlueRado]

Geez, I get about 2 of these every week in the mail - what a crock!!

[CMNTMXR81]

The G/F gets these things from the Nigerian's several times a week.  She reported it to her ISP and they evidently contacted the FBI, cause the FBI contacted her and asked for all the e-mails she had gotten.

 

Apparently they've been after these scammers for a long time.

[BDBWTE]

This may sound stupid but K1500 what are those little squares under your name??

General Motors does not suck!      

[elboberino]

Hey K1500 - Since you're gonna have all this money now, wanna lend me a couple bucks for lunch?

It's actually a really old scam that goes back even before the Internet. The Internet just makes it so that they can scam more people at once.

 

You guys should do some Internet searches on it though, it pretty interesting how they pull this one off.

This may sound stupid but K1500 what are those little squares under your name??

They are warnings for bad behavior.
