    That's a rubbish offer. I have been contacted by a good friend in Nigeria (who I didn't know I had) who has an iron bound chest hidden in a cave in the mountains with £30, 000, 000 in it. He's offering me £5, 000, 000 to help him. I know a good deal when I see it.


    Spooky i have a similar friend, He was on an expedition and found several of these chests full of gold under the ice caps in Nigeria :rotfl:

    I have a wonderful American General in Iraq who who is going to give me half of the $50,mill that he has in his office. I've given him £10,000 to help him get it out. Do you mean this could be a fraud??? I'm devastated!!!!!! I wondered why my bank account was empty.

    Well, $25m does take up a lot of space - they just needed to make room ;)
