hi
listen those nigerians might have money i said might
but you know 95% of these bozos are scammers
in Canada and United States it is legal to receive uner ten thousand
dollars over 10 thousand you automaticly go under investigation
as of where you got this money how you received it what did you have to do to get this money did you know this person are you related to that personif you dont have a good reason as of why who then then the bank will revoke the transaction
and will go as far as closing my bank account I know I tried this to help someone they closed my account at the toronto Dominion bank
they sent me 42 thousand but they suspected something was not right so they rejected it then they closed my account they made me look like i was a scammer it was supposed to be for a charity not for me
thats why there having a problem giving away their money
im still looking a way to make money but not with no nigerians nor africans
nor iranians or iraqis its all a scam every bit of it theres no such thing as getting rich quick or making money on the internet even Canadians and Americans are crooks some of them of course so i give up trying to get rich
easy way no way theres no easy way only way is to get a job a legal job
this was only my taughts as i saw it thanks for your time
Sincerely Joe
I think we can see the Canadian educational system is second to none.

Dearest Doctor Joseph Makudi, Doctor in Health;
I am the Personal cousin to Mr. Mark Smith, a National of my Country, who has lived in Nigeria for the past fifty years, and whom here in after shall be referred to as my uncle/brother.
Our family has wondered where our beloved uncle/brother ended up after he left a distinguished career in the services of His Royal Highness's Elite Polish Submarine service. As an underwater torpedo repairman, he was often subjected to quite harsh conditions, which often drove him into fits of rage and interior decorating. Needless to say, it was the pressures of the job that drove him to live in Nigeria, where no one whole be able to poke fun at him.
It is an unfortunate turn of events that all occupants of the vehicle lost there lives, especially my uncle/brother. He never was the best when behind the wheel, as he was prone to pass out while counting pebbles alongside the road. Contacting me to assist you in repatriaing most especially, the money left behind by my uncle/brother before they get confiscated or declared unserviceable by the bank where this huge deposits were lodged was a great idea. My uncle/brother was quite skilled at lodging huge deposits of things where he shouldn't. Quite a few times we had to rush him to see the local church elder to have the evil spirts unlodged from his body.
As far as dealing with Central Finance & Securites Limited, uncle/brother did not have any accounts. As the bookkeeper for my tribe, I am responsible for the keeping of accounts and such. He did however, have an account at the United Federation of Planets Savings and Loan in beautiful downtown Des Moines, IA. Last I checked, he carried a balance of $0.98 and was wanted in three states for check forgery.
You may not seek my consent for any matter, as the guidelines of my clan does not allow for strangers to represent family members without the direct written consent of Major League Baseball. This is a difficult thing to accomplish, due to the designated hitter rule.
As the matter of the $20.9 million dollars that my uncle/brother, hom here in after shall be referred to as "Fancy Pants", I would wager that most of that is either counterfiet or monopoly money. Fancy Pants was quite keen on passing off seemingly fake looking money to third-rate African banks. I would not be flabbergasted to find that Fancy Pants has stashed fake money in Chad, Sudan, and even Guinea-Bissau!!! He was quite the rouge!
I would prefer to either have the account confiscated at the mercy of the Central Finance & Securities Limted OR donate the corrupt devil money to an orphanage. This is the only way that our familial lines will be purified of Fancy Pants' wrong doing.If you require the need to contact me via electronic mail, you may do so at this electronic mail address.
Warmest Regards, Deepest Groveling, and Ruptured Spleen!
Smith
If any one else would like to respond forward me their humorous response to the scammers (especially if you can get them to reply), I could do a special edition of the BBspot Mailbag with them. Thanks.
