Anyone had this one yet ????

Received this one in this mornings mail.....hee hee....
Doesn't it make you feel like tracking these people down and hitting them on the head with a brick ????

Dear friend,

How are you doing? Firstly I will like to introduce myself to you, I'm Jenny Brown from Edinburgh, United Kingdom, working as a Procurement to The Era Global Veterinary Group. I got you email contact on internet when searching so i decide to tell you about this injection. My company have been making research about an injection, it is INJECTION FOR HORSE. our company usually buy the injection from France but since 3 months now, the company we use to buy the injection in France don't have the injection anymore and we have been making enquiry about the injection in all europe countries but we can not get it. Luckily the seller in France advised me that i can get the injection from asia either Malaysia, India, Korea or Macau and since then i have been looking for someone whom i can trust to do the business with. You see, our company use to buy the injection at the rate of $3,300 USD PER ONE PACKET AND EACH PACKET CONTAINS 10 BOTTLES. Luckily i was told that we can get the injection from Asia at the rate of $1,600 USD per catton and they need 50 to 700 cantons and they will pay cash.once we get the injection. Now, all i want is for us to do the business on trust, we share the percentage peacefully, all you have to do is to buy the injection and my company will buy from you at the rate of $3,300 USD which means we will be having a profit of $1,500 USD per each Packet. Once i confirm that you have gotten the injection, i will come down to meet you up with our company purchasing manager to buy the injection from you but you have to act as the seller of the injection because i don't want him to know where you bought the injection from so that we can still continue the business in the future. the policy of payment of my company is either we meet face to face in your country pay cash and carry or remit the money to your account in your country and put is onhold till my company receive the product then the money will release to you.

Please kindly make enquiry about the injection fast and get back to me so that i will inform them that we have gotten the injection. The name of the injection is CONCENTRATED PENTOSAN 4 EQUINE INJECTION (10ml) 1 Packet is 10 bottles. Attached is the picture of the Injection.

Thanks and i look forward to hearing from you soon.
Best regards,
Jenny Brown

Not this particular one, but just about every other piece of crappy spam that I can think of.

Robert Mueller with the FBI and I must be great buddies now, since I hear from him at least once a day. Of course, most of those emails threaten me with arrest if I don't provide a designated individual with all my personal info (including my bank info), so that I can get my millions released to me.

All these scammers from Nigeria, need to take some courses in English composition. It's really pathetic and comical to read some of them. I just can't believe that any half way intelligent person could believe any of these scams, but they must. :eek:

And now that it's tax time, I've gotten a few telling me that I have a refund owed to me from previous years - just follow the link.............yeah - sure, you idiots!!! :mad:

Trouble is......there are enough suckers out there to line the pockets of these people so that they keep on doing it.
I heard on the radio last year just how much people lose each year to these scammers.....I forget what the figure was now, but it was in the many millions.

Unfortunately there are people who do.
Those scammers zero in on that common human trait known as greed.

Omg....that has to be the most ridiculous one yet. Pom is right, they do need English and Spelling lessons. We get that income tax scam by phone, and always by someone you can't understand. Most people don't fall for these scams but some people just don't seem to get it. Seniors are also a very vulnerable group and I feel sorry for them. It just never stops does it, unless every single person they contact ignores them or like someone mentioned...a brick on the head...idiots.
