A new one on me ...

An email this morning, with a video attachment:

Hi I just want to tell you that your lover does not want to communicate with you. We met not long ago and realized that we can not live without each other. I ask you not to interfere with our happiness and no scandals to step aside. We are very well together, and in confirmation of his words will send you a video where we enjoy a pleasant time together. Hope you will not stop us.

Reckon they'll catch any phish with that one?

Well that's a new approach!!!!

ha! I get these all the time, only they are from other half's ex, you'd think after 20 years she'd give up... kind of sick of changing emails, ph numbers etc[!]

Do you have to send money to Nigeria too???

did you ever get the line ''thankyou for being his friend, but we have history and we are going to work on our problems''...... unbeknown to the OH?

Now that could scare a few people on receiving that, the guilty ones I mean

Or the ones whose minds are already working overtime as to what their OH is doing elsewhere with their ''tea money''....

similar but probably not worded so nicely, and strangely more since we inherited the family property...[]

you know, guys, sometimes I feel like I missed a few steps, or am particularly naïve or am not quite from this world:o:o. Not that I would step into those traps, but:

what type of brain comes up with that sort of stuff:confused:?!??

There has been some fairly strange posters on here from time to time who have taken unusual twists in their turn. If I recall correctly, several personalities were eventually uncovered as 1.

I agree.. why?.. on the more scam based project.. YAY I WON US$175000.00.. sooo excited NOT[]
according to the news an ex police man and retired lawyer were amongst those who got conned..
goodness, I just insisted they send me my cheq, rather than me having to attend anything or pay them anything first.... still waiting .. oh hum

They can send out millions of emails..even if they only hit .001% and some idiot sends them $$$$ it's a win.
Bit like sending out invoices to large companies for say Stationery, in the hope that the accounts departments are so big they just pay accounts not reconciling with what is ordered or what is received.

Doesn't have to be large companies either, many a blind eye is turned to mid management and some staff helping themselves to product that is paid for by the business. [}]
