yep - I got one of those, and subsequently reported the little darlin !

so i'm not as special as she made out then.

they got hold of my messenger address.

Sweet lady, she started off by saying she was on tv and a model and then said she was in west africa but her agent couldn't wire funds to her.

she then asked me if I could open a bank account in my name for her. I said I had a ccj which puzzled her.

Then she said if I could send her some money to pay for a flight she would 'reward' me when she got back.

Regarless to say I told her/its where to stick her rewards. Big scam.

Luckily for myself, i am very wary of everything, and would never fall for this. Fancy targeting folks trying to SAVE money! [EMAIL="tw@t"]!!!!!![/EMAIL]!

I may email her back, last time i advertised a stereo in free ad i got emails asking to ship it to Africa, and pay now then they'll refund me! I kept them going for a few days. Quite amusing. DD has just dropped off for an afternoon nap so I may start the games!

freak! def not english, i'd say. shall we bombard her inbox?

Tempting but probably better not too, unless you don't mind excessive amounts of spam.

oh, she's online, sending kisses until i am online too!! :rotfl:

nevermind, she's just slipped herself up, she's now 32 and a model, not 35 and a sales admin. still from bristol though! mind you, the profile photo she uses on msn suggests nothing like 32 years old!!! **Don't worry folks, i know its not real**.

Perhaps do a `zincoxide' on her - have you seen his thread? It's hilarious
