Dateline: Abuja; Nigeria Fights Email Scam

dosten writes "Computerworld.com is reporting that the Nigerian government is tired of being known as the Spam/Scam capital of the world and setup a web site to combat the common email scam. The web site is almost as funny as the Spam Letters. There is even a place to report your victim "experiences" so they can be published. One of the "coming soon" features will be a lineup of bad guys so you can avoid them in case you end up in Nigeria to collect your loot."

    WHENEVER, WHEREVER
    By: Shakira

    Lucky you were born that far away
    So we could both make fun of distance
    Lucky that I love a foreign land for
    The lucky fact of your existence
    Baby I would climb the Andes solely
    To count the freckles on your body
    Never could imagine there were only
    Ten million ways to love somebody

    Le do lo le lo le,
    Le do lo le lo le
    Can't you see...I'm at your feet

    Whenever, wherever
    We're meant to be together
    I'll be there and you'll be near
    And that's the deal my dear
    Thereover, hereunder,
    You'll never have to wonder
    We can always play by ear
    and that's the deal my dear

    Lucky that my lips not only mumble
    They spill kisses like a fountain
    Lucky that my breasts are small and humble
    So you don't confuse them with mountains
    Lucky I have strong legs like my mother
    To run for cover when I need it
    And these two eyes that for no other
    The day you leave will cry a river

    Le do lo le lo le,
    Le do lo le lo le
    At your feet, I'm at your feet

    Whenever, Wherever
    We're meant to be together
    I'll be there and you'll be near
    And that's the deal my dear
    Thereover, hereunder
    You'll never have to wonder
    We can always play by ear
    But that's the deal my dear

    Le do lo le lo le,

  7. REQUEST FOR URGENT ASSISTANCE by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    I know that this mail will come as a surprise to you as it comes from a
    stranger, but be rest
    assured that it comes with good intentions. Your
    address was a courtesy of a business database in The World Trade Centre
    here in
    Madrid,Spain. After due consideration of your profile, I came
    to believe that you have the credibility to assist me in this
    transaction, hence my decision to
    contact you without delay.

    This was borne out of my desire to establish a mutual /business
    relationship with you. My name
    is Musa Smith, the son of Michael Smith (the
    former deputy minister of finance under the ousted civilian government)
    who was killed and
    mutilated by the military junta, led by Major Paul
    Koroma, after overthrowing the elected government of President Tijan
    Kabba. Though I do not
    know to what extent you are familiar with the
    events and disturbances in Sierra-Leone, but the pressure of war drove
    me and my mother out
    of Freetown (Sierra-Leone's capital city) into exile
    in Spain where we have been living under political asylum as refugees.

    Sadly, my mother died of cancer three weeks ago and was burried in
    Spain. Prior to her death,
    she handed me over a certificate meant for a
    secret deposit which my father made in a Security Company, here in
    Madrid,the deposit that
    worth US$10.500.000 USD (Ten million,five
    hundred thousand United States Dollars only). This was money paid to
    his corporation by its
    oversea company in the heat of the conflict.My
    father made this savings in his name with the hope of converting it for
    his personsl use at the
    end of the war; but was murdered in cold blood
    when the conflict intensified as a result of his opposition to the
    rebel forces.

    I have contacted the Security Company to confirm deposit and establish
    ownership. Due to the
    death of my mother and the eventual return of
    peace in Sierra-Leone, I have decided to solicit for a honest and
    trustworthy individual or
    company that will assist me in the transfer and
    business re-investment of the money.I cannot do it alone due to my
    present pòlitical and social
    status as well as my total ignorance of the
    business world.Upon your willingness to assist me, you will be given a
    negotiable percentage at
    the end of the transaction.

    If you are interested in the above proposal, contact me immediately
    through this e-mail address
    or telephone number +34 686 597 838 for more
    details. You must maintain absolute confidentiality in this regard to
    ensure success of the
    transfer. Please do indicate your personal telephone
    and fax numbers when replying, to enable me communicate with you
    easily. I am looking
    forward to your urgent response to this effect.

    Best regards,

    Musa Smith.

    Why not? Does he not want people to e-mail him? What's up with that? e-mail MFS and let him know he is loved!

    I just LOVE Vladinator's site! Especially the "fash" section, where I learned to cut the bottom off of an old shirt to use as a hair enhancement! Oh, and the "dance party" photos!

    Of course, don't forget to read Vladinator's emails! Here you will discover how truly difficult it is to decide what to do on the weekends... have a pizza party? A fash party? Go to the mall with all of your friends? Have a sleepover and call boys on the phone?

    In short, if you haven't checked out Vladinator's site, you don't know what you're missing!

    Well,

    Just to keep everyone informed, Theresa lost her job with the Slovenian Woman's Union, and as a result we are losing this apartment. Needless to say, between work and now looking for a place on short notice, I just simply will not be around at all. I will not be available by IRC or anything else for most of the next week. If anyone needs to reach me, the best way to do that is to call me at my In-Law's, where we will be staying for at least the next few weeks. The # there is 815-723-4796. My Scottlockwood@hotmail.com address will also work, but I do not know how much longer the @attbi.com address(s) will work as I do not know if they will have cable modem's where-ever we land. We will be staying in the same area, or moving a little north.
