and seem to be in pain as well!

This latest from the art of confidence games, proving once and for all, that when you reach out to scam the public, you should always keep a dictionary handy!!

Re: Payment Notification:

We are writhing to know if it's true that you are DEAD? Because we received a notification from one MR. GERSHON SHAPIRO of USA stating that you are DEAD and that you have giving him the right to claim your funds. He stated you died on a CAR accident. He has been calling us regarding this issue, but we cannot proceed with him until we confirm this by not hearing from you after 7days. Be advised that we have made all arrangements for you to receive and confirm your funds without anymore stress, and without any further delays.

All we need to confirm now is your been DEAD Or still Alive. Because this MAN'S message brought shock to our minds. And we just can't proceed with him until we confirm if this is a reality OR not But if it happened we did not hear from you after 7days, then we say: MAY YOUR SOUL REST IN PERFECT PEACE"

YOUR JOY AND SUCCESS REMAINS OUR GOAL.

May the peace of the Lord be with you wherever you may be now.
Your Faitfully,
Mrs Farida Waziri




The spelling error had me laughing well for a few minutes. In fact, I wish I could see Agent Orange and his friends (like McConnell) writhing indeed! :evilgrin:

3. The only correct response

Dear Mrs. Farida Waziri,

Thank you for writhing to me. Yes, I know Gershon. He's a good friend of mine. You know he has absolutely no penis, don't you? Yep. It never grew in.

I must confirm that I have been DEAD for quite some time. But that's okay. Tell Gershon that if he wants you to clean out his bank account and trash his credit, like you were planning on doing to me, he should feel free to enter into a transaction with you. It's okay with me,

Your Faitfully,

Colonel Sanders.

4. lol!

I love getting these things. If you have even a smidge of common sense, you know it's all bullshit, but I can see where an uninitiated schlub with greedy intentions can fall for it. And then you really have to wonder if they deserved it anyhow.
