TTRickeh Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 Just received this one. I'd give it 4/10 - more story needed, lacks effort, although they get marks for being vaguely topical. The Nigerian one at least had some imagination and made me feel like I was special. 'Urgent Attention Permit me to approach you in this manner. I am Sgt. Ken Holland of the US Marine in Ba'qubah,Iraq. We have the sum of $15,500,000.00 we made from some Crude Oil deal that we want you to help us to receive. Since we are working here on Official capacity we cannot keep this funds hence my contacting you. If you are interested, do get back to me so that i can give you further details. Sgt. Ken Holland' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supra_aero Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 How'd you know he was Nigerian? Still amazed by that story on crimewatch where faceless msn chats led to females in love sending hundreds of thousands to guys posing as good looking soldiers in Iraq in need etc. Don't see how you can fall for these! I feel sorry for the victims. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedM Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 If you get the same thing but from serviceman in Afghanistan wanting you to help with a trillion dollars they'll be getting from a lithium mine, go for it. It's genuine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 I feel sorry for the victims. Yeah me too RedM got caught by a 20yr old bum boy serving in Afghanistan recently. The guy promised him nights of rear end fun when on leave next and poor old RedM parted with cash, something to do with a Lithium mine !

kjgreen3 Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 I feel sorry for all the ligitimate owners of lithium mines trying to send money to the uk, this scam is really going to mess with their operations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
