This is my favorite spam email so far...

My favorite part is where "William's" father is assassinated by rebels. Oh, how I do love thee, Spam.

APPEAL FOR URGENT ASSISTANCE.

Dearest,

I wish to request for your assistance in a financial transaction.

My name is WILLIAMS CATIM. I am 20 years old.

I got your contact from the wife of my pastor whom I sort her spiritual
help concerning the need for a trustworthy and God fearing person who
will
help me in a financial transaction.

I have Fourteen Million Three Hundred thousand United State Dollars.

USD ($14.300, 000) Inherited from my Late Father who was a wealthy
Cocoa
Merchant here in Ivory Coast before his death in 2003.

He was assassinated by the rebels following the political uprising.

I wish to invest this money and continue my education in your country.

I will require your assistance in receiving the funds in your account
in
to your country and also help me to relocate to your country.

The reason for your assistance is that my father used my name WILLIAMS
as
the NEXT OF KIN for the deposit but instructed the bank in an agreement
that it is to be transferred to a foreign partner's account whose
information should be supplied by the Next of Kin in case of Accident
Or
death.

The banks have requested for our foreign partner's account as to
transfer
the fund and I plead for your help towards it.

I will be gladly given you 15% of the total sum for your assistance.

contact me immediately for further explanation.
as soon as i hear from you,am going to send you my picture with my
international paspt for you to know me.

Thanks and God Bless you.

WILLIAMS CATIM.

Me too. There was a segment on The View a couple of weeks ago about these e-mails and how people who had hundreds of thousands in their account were asked to fly to Nigeria, where they were kidnapped.

There have to be SOME idiots out there, or sending these e-mails would be a waste of time and no one would do it.


It is quite mind-boggling though, isn't it? That someone would be like, "WOW! What a GREAT idea?"

So that's why my bank account has been emptying out so quickly. I thought I was just ordering from the Home Shopping Network in my sleep, again.
