Me too! I guess it's the day for them to spread their scam to the world :P

That has to be one of the single most fucking wierd emails I've ever seen. Delete it and forget about it. Particularly considering many of the terrorist money laundering lines have been traced to Africa. Sounds like a scam all the way.

a scam...looking for suckers to help with money laundering. in typical grifter style they're playing upon one's sense of sympathy and greed.

the thing about lies is that the crazier it is, the more likely you'll find someone dumb enough to believe it.

i'd just delete it.

oh, wow. this is a classic 'jail letter'. this trick has been around for ages.... ive seen a few of these before. please, whatever you do -- DO NOT CONTACT these people, or give them any of your personal info. they will clear out your bank account... :X

yea that's a scam that's been going around for awhile now...

I think they're centering on LJ folk....not sure though...
