I'm glad I'm not the only one who gets those.

Its always something like, "I would stop down and pay directly but my wife is in the hospital" blah blah blah. "I'm out of the country helping sick children in..." whatever.

I give them a price but I tell them I need the phone number of the credit card company to verify funds before we can proceed.

I've never gotten a response back.
 
I once had a fellow wanting to send me a "Trial Timed Licensed Copy of Wodows 7 Ultimate" for $20. If I chose to keep the copy then for an additional $120 I could receive the activation code.

With my junk email account, I wrote back and said, "Sure! I'll take one copy!" I gave him the mailing address to the nearest FBI department... I always wondered what happened to that order :Big Laugh

I feel bad for an old client on the west coast...they got taken in by the God Bless America banner scheme a couple years back. They were clueless and we started printing the banners for them. I made a couple calls on the CC#s they got for them...and bingo...stolen..fraudulent...etc. Luckily I had it all down on paper and I got paid at least to cover my cost for the banners. We dug into old banners for floor covering and broke these out. ALMOST used them as wrapping for a Board job that was shipping to Shanghai! hahahhaahaa

I guess with my location I don't get any of these banner scams.

Lucky for me I am one of the most trusted "undisclosed recipients":



Dear Sir/Madam,

Assalaimalikum!

This email message should not come as a surprise if you have been following current event in the international media with reference to the recent revolution in my country, LIBYA. I am AISHA GADDAFI, the biological daughter of slain Ex-Libyan President, Col. Maummar GADDAFI. I am seeking your assistance / partnership in receiving a huge un-claimed fund deposited by my late. Father (May his soul rest in perfect peace).

Now, for us to successfully commence this mutual business, I will want to inform you that I am ready to compensate you immensely if you can assist me in this endeavor. I need someone that is trustworthy and honest and has the capability to handle the large sum involved and as such, I would like you to provide me with a brief resume of yourself.

Once I have had this response from you, I will feel a lot safer to divulge vital aspects of this fund (location and how to lay claim to it) as the case maybe. Kindly forward your full contact details in your response. Both parties will sign a draft agreement prepared by my lawyer which will specify your percentage for your assistance.

I wait to hear from you ASAP.

Yours Sincerely,

Ms. Aisha GADDAFI
