I won the lottery, again!

[billski]

Wow, I just won $4.6M in the Dubai Lottery. I am on a roll. I won the Irish National Lottery twice in a row previously.

Now, I've got a General's widow in Nigeria asking for my help in extracting $8m from her bank account, just because I'm such a trustworthy person.

Gee, I feel so honored. What's next in this good life?

Last week the estate of apparrently my long, long,long,long,long,long,long,long,long,long lost 14th cousin 84 times removed contacted me and told me they needed bank account info so they could wire a "large sum of money" to me. Of course though there was going to be a "funds transfer charge" that I had to pay 1st

 

[billski]

Oh,we are a lucky lot, gosh golly!

 

[hardline]

i have never got one of those emails

 

[WoodCore]

i have never got one of those emails

Considerer yourself blessed! I get at least one a day not including the rest of the junk email. Thank god for spam filters.

 

[hardline]

well that may not be true. i have multiple email accounts but with my gmail i dont get a one.

 

[severine]

I used to fark around with those Nigerian emailers... I had fake email accounts for that purpose. One was going to marry me. He was pretty upset when I stopped answering his emails.. :lol:

 

[billski]

well that may not be true. i have multiple email accounts but with my gmail i dont get a one.

My current email accounts have been extant for about 10 years. Because of the lines of work I am in, they are publicly available and promoted. Once on the web, you will be harvested. gmail, yahoo mail, rsn, verizon, any isp domain just doesn't cut it professionally.

When the spirit moves me, I take inspiration from scambusters.com. One fellow told me he was located in a London office but that he would be in Spain for a week. I wrote him back , what a coincidence, I would be in those same places the same time as he. Then he changed his schedule, I said no worries, I was traveling on a private jet and could adjust. I told him with so much money involved I insist that we do this personally. I would hand deliver him the cash. I indicated that my accountant and two security men would accompany me, so not to worry about safety. Then he gave me some sob story about how that wasn't necessary, just wire him the loot. I wrote back, alarmed and indicated that if he was in trouble my boys would go looking for him. He didn't respond. I wrote back saying that I was very concerned about him and asked my security men to secure his whereabouts (I started to use convuluted language like he did - really got into this.) I told him my boys indicated that they had logged his last IP address and were closing in on where he was. It appeared he was on another continent and perhaps he had been kidnapped. I said not to worry, we would find him. Never heard another damn thing :razz:

 

[severine]

Yes, I was supposed to go to Belgium to meet one of my guys. I forget which celeb photo I sent him that was supposed to be me, but he was quite taken. LOL. Unbelievable what kind of stories you could tell that they appeared to eat right up. I figured that if I was wasting some of their time, that was a little less time they could spend scamming others out of money. I had free time to mess around with anyway and it was kind of entertaining.

I already have received more than enough. Feel free to use this one.

FROM: MR. JOSEPH MALUNGA
EXTERNAL AUDITOR FOR BANKS
Tel: +27 784 432 451

Greetings, I communicate you with honest Intentions and I seek to make contact with you and acquaint myself with you for mutual benefit towards overcoming a Dilemma regarding certain funds left behind in an Investment Account by a Deceased client of a Bank here in South-Africa.

I have the opportunity to be working as an external Auditor when I came across this Account with a substantial Deposit in foreign currency which has not been claimed since for some years, I sent out notices for Claims of this money and the Bank informed me that the Owner, a Foreigner passed away during the Zimbabwean Crisis and was a Farmer who was assassinated when his farm was taken over, this man
had no family and left no Beneficiary information.

This Money if it is not claimed may be tuned over to the Treasury if someone does not claim it hence my decision to contact you for your Interest so I can present you as the Business partner to this deceased owner. It is required that an Application for claims be entered and approval given within 10 days so this money can be transferred to your overseas Account, there is no risk involved because I will lay the necessary groundwork and you will provide the Overseas Account to receive this money upon Approval.

If this money is not claimed within the next 2 months, it will be taken to the Treasury and both of us can work together to avoid this, because your Country has good investment climate, this money can be
invested in your country than allowing corrupt Government officials to have access to it.

I will inform you of the Amount involved, as well as your percentage after I receive a Favorable and positive feedback from you, your percentage shall be discussed upon your agreement. Please contact me
by Email, Telephone or Fax and furnish me with the following details;

[1] Your Names
[2] Address
[3] Telephone and Fax numbers,

I will get in touch with you afterwards; this proposal is for Mutual Financial Benefit and not to mis-lead you.

Thank you and Best Regards,

MR. JOSEPH MALUNGA
