I just recieved this nice email from a nice Swiss lady.

BELOVED,

GREETINGS IN THE NAME OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST. I AM MRS STELLA TRICIA
COLLINS FROM SWITZERLAND, A WIDOW TO LATE TOM COLLINS I AM 55 YEARS OLD, I
AM NOW A NEW CHRISTAIN CONVERT, SUFFERING FROM LONG TIME CANCER OF THE
BREAST, FROM ALL INDICATION MY CONDITIONS IS REALLY DETERIORATING AND IT IS
QUITE OBVIOUS THAT I WON'T LIVE MORE THAN 2 MONTHS, ACCORDING TO MY DOCTORS,
THIS IS BECAUSE THE CANER STAGE HAS GOTTEN TO A VERY BAD STAGE.MY LATE
HUSBAND DIED LAST FIVE YEARS,AND DURING THE PERIOD OF OUR MARRIAGE WE
COULD'NT PRODUCE ANY CHILD.MY LATE HUSBAND WAS VERY WEALTHY AND AFTER HIS
DEATH, I INHERITED ALL HIS BUSINESS AND WEALTH. THE DOCTORS HAS ADVISED ME
THAT I MAY NOT LIVE FOR MORE THAN 2 MONTHS, SO I NOW DECIDED TO DEVIDE THE
PART OF THIS WEALTH, TO CONTRIBUTE TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE CHURCH IN
AFRICA, AMERICA ASIA,AND EUROPE. I SELECTED YOU AFTER VISITING THE WEBSITE
AND I PRAYED OVER IT. I AM WILLING TO DONATE THE SUM OF $5,000.000.00U.USD(
FIVE MILLION UNITED STATES DOLLARS) TO THE LESS PRIVILEGED. PLEASE I WANT
YOU TO NOTE THAT FUND IS LYING IN A SECURITY COMPANY IN NIGERIA. ONCE I HEAR
FROM YOU, I WILL FORWARD TO YOU ALL THE INFORMATIONS YOU WILL USE TO GET
THIS FUND RELEASED FROM THE SECURITY COMPANY AND TO BE TRANSFERRED TO YOUR
ACCOUNT. I HONESTLY PRAY THAT THIS MONEY WHEN TRANSFERRED TO YOUR ACCOUNT
WILL BE SURE FOR THE SAID PURPOSE, BECAUSE I HAVE COME TO FIND OUT THAT
WEALTH ACQUISITION WITHOUT CHRIST IS VANITY. MAY THE GRACE OF OUR LORD JESUS
THE LOVE OF GOD AND THE FELLOWSHIP OF GOD BE WITH YOU AND YOUR FAMILY.
I AWAIT YOUR URGENT REPLY.

YOUR SISTER IN CHRIST.

MRS STELLA TRICIA COLLINS

I am going to respond. Obviously, because this woman is a christian, this couldn't possibly be some form of scam.

yes, I realize that it is a scam, so don't bother posting to tell me that, I am just going to string them along for a bit with a specially created email account. Hopefully I will get to the phone call stage, then I will give them the number for the US attorneys office or something

Ah, you're quite the creative one.:D

What? I would have given her all my account details because Nigerians are so trustworthy in the past, in relation to random emails.

God bless you Mrs Collins, it's a pitty there is no God or Mrs Collins...God Bless you!

it's a pitty there is no God or Mrs Collins...
What are you talking about Heretic? Mrs Collins is so real! That email says so!
*smacks Rotovia upside his empty head*

In other news today:
How come I never get any of those sorts of emails? I only ever get incoherent spam from my aunt, and she is neither Swiss nor interested in stealing from my now 3 digit bank account.
Other people have all the fun, all I get is porn and collections of last centuries jokes with titles like "FWD: FWD: FWD: FWD: FWD: FWD: FWD: FWD: FWD: FWD: FWD: FWD: FWD: FWD: FWD: FUNNY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" that have been floating around the Interweb so long that the there was this one guy who apparently receives the email every fourth generation, and then sends it right back out again.

The syntax of the letter is hilarious.

It's typed in all caps, there is no possible way that can be a scam. Must be ugrent or something.

Yes, it was the all caps that convinced me that this is urgent and important.

Probably should send me....errr I mean her that money quickly then.
