These cross dressing dictators can be pretty scarey people....starts with
mascara and the next thing you know you have Idi Izard or Hilda Hitler....

I had one with creativity t'other day - it referred to my uncle, Robert
Pritchard....quite a neat little bit of personalisation!

The fact that I haven't got an Uncle Robert, and that were he to exist the
likelihood of him having umpteen millions in a dodgy African bank account
would be minimal, seems to not really matter much.

have you seen the site that lists scams like this? There's an excellent
story on there of how some chap got the scammer to send HIM money...total
star!

Forget about flame wars and site appraisals. I have just received a
variation on the "Nigerian Scam" e-mail containing some lovely howlers (or
are they Malapropisms?):


"...TO SECURITY COMPANY IN DUBAI, UNITED ARAB DEMERIT"

"...SON OF FORMER PRESIDENT GENERAL ROBBER GUEI"

"I AM PRESENTLY IN HIDINGS SINCE THE MASCARA OF MY FATHER."
