Hmm, I'm going to enjoy making fun of this one.

"Salam Dear Friend,

I am pleased to introduce a business opportunity to transfer to your overseas account the sum of($10.3 USD)Ten million Three hundred thousand United States Dollars from Bank Of Africa Dakar Senagal.

I am Mr Abdullah Ali, the Auditor General of Bank Of Africa here in Dakar Senegal during the course of our auditing , I discovered a floating funds in an account opened in our bank since 1992 and till date no body has operated on the account and after going through old files in the records , I
discovered that the owner of the account died long ago in a plane crash along with his family without leaving a[Heir/WILL], hence the floating of the funds and if I do not remit this money out urgently it will be forfeited for nothing.

The owner of the account was a foreigner , Mr Hazim Ibrahim From Elexandria Egypt,He deals on Export and Buying of Gold and Diamond.

Therefore ,with a personal conviction of trust and confidence ,I wish to contact you as a foreigner , I am here to work out the release of the funds, No other person in the office knows about the account , please be assured of the risk free , I'm the one that will work it out , all I need is your
cooperation because the account content can not be approved to an indigen here as his next of kin .

At the conclusion of this project , I propose a joint investment of an equal partnership to you or we may share it in a ratio of 45% for you and 55% for me.

One more thing please; I beg you don't consider this against moral justification , they are many other aspects of life we may contribute with this funds to help the less privileged and the needy in a society than having it shared as an unclaimed bill among Government PLEASE .

I look forward to your earliest response

Regards.
Mr Abdullah Ali."

Well first of all, whatever stupid website that sold my email address, I present my one finger salute. But now an analysis of this lovely email.

I am extremely glad I'm not 20 years older and stupid. But apparently this email targeted 40-50 year olds and has managed to scam thousands of people. How can someone be so stupid as to believe any of this crap?

Spam has gotten out of hand. Previously, I only had to deal with various male genitalia enhancements, but now these people want my pity? It amazes me how some people in this world have lost even the smallest sense of decency. The scary thing about this is, some of these letters ask the people to fly out to some African country to "pick up" their reward, only to find themselves dragged into some desert and shot. Yes people have been killed by this scam. Sigh.
