  4. $150,000 is the minimum requirements! by JohnFromCanada · · Score: 5, Funny

    If you win the competition and the $150,000.00 you could then buy a computer for yourself that will be able to run Doom 3, and you would still have just enough money left over to order yourself the game.

    Dear Trusted Friend,

    I am from South Africa, in the war torn country of Zimbabwe. Recently, I have come to the attention that I am in the inheritance of $150,000 Million US dollars. This money was left to me by my father, the great Duke Nuk Em. Due to his untimely demise, probably by his enemies, I am not able to access this money. My mother and I may be doomed to die as our father's enemies are looking for us.
    If you would be so kind, please send me $1,000.00 so I may fly to America so I can receive my inheritence at Gaylord hotels in the beautiful country of Texas.

    For your kind services I have reserved 25% of my fathers inheritence into an account of your choice.
    Please forward me your account information, and I will begin the process.
    Please be so kind and keep this secret so my fathers enemies will not kill me.
    Your trusted friend,
    Akiel em-All
