Greetings From Nigeria!!!

Have you ever received an email from this guy?

You’re using the internet, so I’m guessing you have. The emails usually read something like this:

Good blessings to you my most loyal brethren:

The almighty gods of the heavens have rained down their good fortunes upon my cranial area. My pockets are showered with coins and bills bearing the markings of the great man who wears mushroom powder wig. I cannot possible spend such extravagant amounts of "moolah" alone this is why I have contacted your trueness......
I am nice friend to all American people. I have no sons to who i can spread my new wealth like butter made from cow. Not a goat. Or rat.....
I however cannot make any travels to your USA because of unfair prejudices and weary glances at my unkempt beard and turban. I dont enjoy the peltings of accusations tossed to my face by the airport security. so i must do all wheels and dealings online for my safebeing.
Please respond to me as soon as you have completed all morning rituals and grooming responsibilities. I look forward to receiving your very official bank routing number and social security digits. Please do not delay I have $400,000,000 just burning holes in my pants.
Good tidings,

If you are like some, you immediately went down to the bank and withdrew every last dime in your name to send to this most trustworthy fellow. And if so, that would make you a monumental sucker.
See?



This reminds me of two things. First, there is an old adage that goes like this, “A fool and his money are soon parted.”

Secondly, there is never a good reason to give a thumbs up. Ever. Well… Unless, you have just been the victim of some type of grievous accident, and you want people to know that you are cautiously optimistic of your survival. But other than that, never.
