...and had this waiting for me.. now i am used to the Nigerian Lottery telling me i have won and i need to send them all my details (as if!) but thought this one was a bit below the belt with the cancer and war deaths etc.... Oh and yes, i do know its still a scam! Pretty poor taste tho... i was gonna reply - anyone got any good replies to this?

quote:
Dearest Beloved, I am Mrs. Mrs. Carroll Andersen , a widow to Late Richard Andersen.

I am 60 years old; I am now a new Christian convert, suffering from long time cancer of the breast. From all indications, my condition is really deteriorating and is quite obvious that I may not live more than 5 months, because the cancer stage has gotten to a very severe stage. My late husband was killed during the Gulf war, and during the period of our marriage we had a son who was also killed in a cold blood during the Gulf war. My late husband was very wealthy and after his death, I inherited all his business and wealth.

My personal physician told me that I may not live for more than 5 months and I am so scared about this. So, I now decided to divide part of this wealth, by contributing to the development of charity in Africa, America, Europe and Asian Countries. I selected you after visiting the website for this purpose and prayed over it, I am willing to donate the sum of $11,499,000.00 Eleven Million Four hundred and ninety nine thousand United States dollars to the motherless babies homes, needy, poor, charity homes and widows too.

Please note that, this fund is lying with the Finance Security Company, therefore my lawyer will file an immediate application for the transfer of the money in your name. Lastly, I want you to be praying for me as regards my entire life and my health because I have come to find out since my spiritual birth lately that wealth acquisition without Jesus Christ in one's life is vanity upon vanity. If you have to die says the Lord, keep fit and I will give you the crown of life. May the Grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, the love of God, and the sweet fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you.

I await your urgent reply.
Yours in Christ

Mrs. Carroll Andersen

Mrs Joe and I receive about 400 per day. These range from the usual penis dimension rubbish to Nigerian scams.
It's so tempting, but the usual advice is to ignore them.

It's a constant battle between the spammers and the anti virus authorities. Occasionally it dwindles as the companies gain the upper hand. Before long the spammers work out ways of getting through.

But how do they do it? maybe there is someone they bribe?

I meant it's tempting to reply in a clever way.

Although since a few of the good ladies of the Forum have mentioned how important girth is, I have indeed been tempted.
I always thought that fame and money did the trick.
