5/23/08 end of day:  $1,460,000

 ;D ..... congratulations.........   [drink]

I think you should go for it  ;D

Whats the worse that can happen  ???

Where will you go first? Figi? Martinique? MUGELLO?!  [thumbsup]

Thank you, Juan.  Since you were first, $25,000 for you.

Than what I'm doing now?  Nothing.  $5,000 to you.


Yes, Mugello would be nice, but I need to wrap up some loose ends first. $5,000 for the idea.
Upon thought, I think my first trip will be to find my benefactor, Mr. Felix Oji (Pastor).  Now, I'm clueless to where Mr. Oji lives, but based up his previous 6,399 emails I'd guess somewhere around Lagos or Nigera.
Hummm... I wonder what time the bus leaves?  Bonus $5,000 for prompting thoughtfullness.

Can i have the 5k now before MR Bowells swindles all your money away  ;D

A Barrister who cant spell [laugh]

LOL.  How 'bout you did a great job on that double take show  [evil] ... and now you can spend more time on the home improvement stuff...

 
Ooo, bad negitive energy toward my pal, Mr. E. Bowell and you didn't use the magic word.
However, you were looking out for my best interests... kinda.
$1,000 coming your way.


I'd say that's one set of seriously sharp peepers you got there, mister.
$2,000 in escrow account to be used for PhD in English w/grammer emphisis.


$10,000 because you have a memory - and appitite- like an elephant...
...-$9,000 WITH A HINT OF ATTITUDE.

man, i got one of these keen emails too from my new bestest friend, Beson Guei. 

i am gonna buy a desmosedici, a 1098r, booze, drugs and hookers .... then i am gonna waste the rest on foolish stuff. [drink]

Before his death on Dec 12 2006 he deposited the sum of 9.500,000 US DOLLARS in a Bank in (ABIDJAN) the capital city of Cote D'ivoire.I want you to assist me in clearing this (fund)from the Bank and then tranfer the fund into your account as beneficiary of the fund,and also use it for an ivestment purpose.I am just 19 years old and a university undergraduate and really don't know what to do.I have suffered a lot of set backs as a result of incessant political crisis here in Ivory coast.The death of my father actually brought sorrow to my life.Dearest one,I am in a sincere desire of your humble assistance in this regards Your suggestions and ideas will be highly regarded.

Hello My Dear,

After waiting and no response was heard, I deposited and also paid for
 the delivery fee of your $1.5,000 000.00 Million US Dollars,as
 consignment box to FEDERAL INLAND SECURITY COMPANY in Lagos Nigeria
 because I
 travelled to SAUDI ARABIA to visit my friend and i will not come back
 till July,2008.I want you to contact the FEDERAL INLAND SECURITY
 COMPANY
 to know when they will be delivering your consignment.

I have paid for the delivery charges and also the insurance fee,the
 only fee you will pay them is the monthly demurrage fee which they
 would
 pay the security department that are guarding your consignment since
 the
 deposition day.

But if you will be very fast in contacting them,you will be charged for
 only one month demurrage fee which will cost only $270 USD. So I urge
 you to contact them as soon as you receive this email.

CONTACT: DR. Eric Daramola
MANAGER FEDERAL INLAND SECURITY COMPANY.
E-mail: ericdaramola2@post.ro
Telephone Number : +234-808-127-2720

Try to contact them as soon as possible to avoid increase in demurrage
 fee.I gave them your delivery address but you have to reconfirm it to
 them again to avoid any mistakes in the delivery of your fund .

Reconfirm below information to the company.

 deposited in the company. Do let me know as soon as you receive your
 consignment and take a proper account of the content if the content is
 $1.500.000.00.

Regards,
Mr.Ayomide Williams.

I'm going to play the slow friend here (well, I guess I'm not really "playing")...how exactly do these guys actually scam money off the people who fall for these emails?  Seems like a no-risk think to try.

You are supposed to tell your boss to "Take this job & Shove it" or something like that, before you reply to the letter. Its a sure thing isn't it?  :'(

Always burn your bridges....




Not!

Thats just the first step. Then they want one more thing.... Such as a fee to release the funds, or another piece of info and the scam becomes a rabbit hole.

What's really sad is that I could have all this info and still wouldn't know what to do with it.  I'd try to buy a lawnmower or something and get caught.   [cheeky]

I've read of your recent success with interest and would be pleased to further your return with my eager assistance. Your hard-earned wealth should not be in investments of unknown foundation and provenance. In my firm, Dewey Cheatham and Howe, you can be rest assured your money will share it's solid strength and impeccable history as that found on the backs of every dollar bill ... if the pyramid is good enough for the U.S. Government, it's good enough for you.

Feel free to contact me at your earliest convenience. Your money will be moving and shaking the sooner you call. You have my name on it.

Best,
Charles Ponzi
