    ...after your great uncle bulgaria passed away leaving you £4 billion.
    Remember the time he ate my goldfish? And you lied and said I never had goldfish. Then why did I have the bowl Bart? Why did I have the bowl?

    In one week alone, I 'won' over $100million and all I had to do was give ALL my personal details, bank account number, passport numbers and driving licence details and i'd be rich...still waiting, but been given a parking ticket in Sunderland and Isle of Wight from the same day and apparently owe IRS over £30,000 in back taxes ;)

    Gotta love the Nigerians determination.

    Lol, they are not very bright these scammers are they, in the emails in the above link, the fake buyer was trying to arrange to go to switzerland to view the car in the week of 13/09/08-19/09/08, seller says she is away on buisness and wont be back till the 26/09/08, on the 12/09/08 seller tells buyer that when he recieves the car he has 15 daysto inspect it, before he has to release the funds, then on the 13/09/08 the seller then tells the buyer it could take upto 14 days to get the car to him, so even if they concluded buisness that day by my reckoning she would not have access to the funds until 10/10/08 at the earliest, but the seller told the fake buyer in the first email that she wanted it all done before the 26/09/08, thick f*****s :rotfl:
    Take every day as it comes!!
