I got these regularly at a former job; somewhere I still have the complete, printed collection. I'll bet that none of you suspected how many incredibly wealthy, devout Christians of Nigerian citizenship have slipped from my family tree and died, tragically and incommunicado, leaving their vast fortunes to ME ME ME.

There was once a nice editorial cartoon showing the Nigerian prime minister (or appropriate cabinet post, not sure) at his desk asking "Why is nobody answering my emails?" :mrgreen:
Lol, I'd love to have long-lost wealthy Nigerian relatives that die and leave money to me, too. I'd never have to work again, according to the sheer amount of money I'd be inheriting. Possibly the next several generations of my family wouldn't either.
Well Scrib, if ye axes noicely, oi will dez-ignite ye as me oan long-lost rellytiv an pass me vast emayle forchoons on to ye wen oi shuffils orf this morrrtal coyle.
Be wotchin yer inbox fer thee notiss; hit will be rowted throo Nigeria fer tax porpoises...
I have a name.lastname@internetprovider address I no longer use after I switched operator but I still keep it because I don't want somebody else to get it. The inbox is always full of I get Nigeria letters and messages that I have lottery wins to claim but I seldom open them just transfer them to the trash.
Lindorm however as well as the usual Nigeria letters, lotteries and V!agrra junk, gets marriage proposals alleged young (often) Russian women who write to him in English so bad one can smell the fake. ::)
Poor girls at the pictures, I wonder if they even know their pictures are being used and I wonder who writes them...
