I recieved this email today, how stupid do these people think we are:



From Mrs.Jewel Taylor

Fax:1-775-898-4683



First let me introduce myself,my name is Jewel Taylor,the

third wife of the ex-president of Liberia who just

voluntarily stepped aside for the installment of a new

goverment in my country .



At present I and my husband have been exiled out of our

country and we are seeking refuge in a neighbouring

country,where things are not really going on fine for

us.Before my husband relinquished his position as head of

state,I had just concluded a contract supply contract with

the aid of a London based firm to supply and install

computer ans electronics equipment to the tune of

$45,000,000usd to the office of the presidency.



This sum though was over-inflated and after full supply and

installation,I made a personal profit of $18,000,000

usd,which I have stashed with a security firm.



What I require from you,is that you urgently assist me in

receiving this funds in your account as one of the

contracted firms,and as such guide away interest and

attention from this money,that it belongs to

me or any of my family members.





At present all of me and my family's properties

confisticated and accounts have been frozen in Liberia,and

are even still out to lay there hands on any funds that

they can trace.



Bearing this in mind,I need that you receive this funds on

my behalf,after which I shall reinvest,a bulk of this funds

in YOUR BUSINESS OF YOURS in your country and this you

shall advise upon and also run and manage on my behalf,with

experience on your side and after which I and my family

would have relocated to your country,with your assistance.



I await your response with confirmation of willigness to

assist.



Thanks



J.Taylor

 
I get about 4-5 of them a week in our business email. They drive me nuts.

The shame of it is that 99.9 of the recipients will know it's outrageous, but there will be a tiny group of folks who'll fall for it and that's all the crooks need.

I mean, who in their right mind would patronize a place that sent them an e-mail with the subject line: *&**^^bUY&%Viacra!*&^#% but apparently enough people do it to keep the spammers making money. Hutch
 
tell him send you a money order and you will cash it for him!
 
I got the same email today, didn't bother to open it but recognize the subject line from what Hutch said above.

Oh well, what did P.T. Barnum say? egmike
 
I got the same email..in fact it is the third in the last few days. They all had different subject lines. Today it said "boat investment"
