At long last my troubles are over.


I'm going to be very rich indeed :j:beer:


''Dearest One,

For sure this mail would definitely come to you as a surprise, but do take your good time to go through it, My name is Desmond Williams and my Sister name is Gloria,we are from Congo.

We lost our parents a year and couple of months ago. Our father was a serving director of the Agro-exporting board until his death. He was assassinated by the rebels during the political uprising in our Country. Before his death, he made a deposit of US$10.5 Million Dollars here in Cote d'ivoire which was for the purchase of cocoa processing machine and development of another factory before his untimely death.

Being that this part of the world experiences political and crises time without number, there is no guarantee of lives and properties. We cannot invest this money here any long,despite the fact it had been our late father’s industrial plans.

We want you to do us a favor to receive this funds into your country or any safer place as the beneficiary, we have plans to invest this money in continuation with the investment vision of our late father,but not in this place again rather in your country. We have the vision of going into real estate and industrial production or any profitable business venture.

We will be ready to compensate you with 15% of the total Amount, now all our hope is banked on you and we really wants to invest this money in your country, where there is stability of Government, political and economic welfare.

We will be waiting for your urgent response as to give you more details.

Thanks and remain blessed,
Desmond &Gloria Williams.''

I get two or three of these a week. Surely nobody responds to them, do they?

The only way you can get hold of a large selection of email addresses is to purchase them - which isn't always cheap. This is what marketing companies do etc.

So, as they've had to pay to get the email addresses they're sending to, i presume that they must get some success from it otherwise they wouldn't do it.

I hope i'm wrong with the above, it's awful to think that people might be conned in any way. But i fear it happens more than you'd think. Naivety is quite common.

Clearly not grasped the finer points of our current economic outlook. Email them back and say our countries going down the pan but you'd be happy to offer a similar service in reverse.
