In my morning mail - anyone want to share?

[carole]

sad to say many do fall for these scams, they usually ask you to forward $40.00 or something along those lines before they will release the so called money, of course you never get it, and they pocket it, they can make quite a bit out of it, we here in NZ have been having people from India ringing up and they have been relentless, i have had about 20 calls so far,saying they are from windows and you need to get your computer seen to ,they then hack in to your computer and take your passwords and can get your credit card numbers etc, apparently they have made 10 million dollars doing so,and you cannot trace them either. My answer to them is straight away, sorry don't have a computer, goodbye.

I had a facebook one the other day that said i had won $500.000 pounds, yeah right, i am never tempted by these, as one knows if you don't enter it, why would you have won anything.

Anyway have fun spending the money in your dreams .

Only $300,000.00 ??? No enough to bother with really.

Wow - I got my biggest payout yet. One of them in this a.m.'s junk mail was for $100,000,000. It was from a foundation in Italy. I knew those Italians were generous, but this is really above and beyond. Makes me proud to be an Italian!
And of course when I get the funds transferred to my bank, I'll remember all my PT friends and will share generously with all of you!

My goodness, I decide to look at Pet Talk posts and what do I find?
Money is just being thrown up in the air and raining back down. Everyone
is in a giddy frenzy and rushing to their Western Union office to get their MTCN number.

Hmmm, I'd better go back and review my new emails to see if Ahmed has contacted me. I sure hope so.

Wow Buddy, a cool 100 mil ???
I'm so glad that you are my best friend and favourite PT'er Ellie.
Yes, I've always believed that one day we can wed and live happily ever after.
And we'll do that right after we sign the 50/50 pre-nup my lawyer has just drawn up.

Ellie, if you believe this swill, let's talk about that bridge a bit north of you.

Swill ???? Well it isn't about the money you know !!!! Just because my dearest received that email this morning is just a coincidence.

You'd better not be trying to sell my Brooklyn Bridge!!!

Wom Darlin - just as soon as I send that nice Italian Foundation all of my private banking details, the money will be on it's way into my account. This is a dream come true - mega millions and Wom too. What more could I possible ask for???



We really do need a little "barfy face" icon - so many times I've had a use for one!

I would notifiy the post office general.

What???? Did I miss something here? I don't get it.


ETA:
Okay - I'm awake now - now I get it.
Since this thread is about internet email scams, I don't see how anyone could confuse it for a Postal Service scam. That would be pretty scary to think that these low-lifes actually had my name and address.

Hey, this is not fair. You Americans are getting bigger payouts than us Aussies.

Hey - just a cotton-pickin' minute here. This guy Kelvin has sent me mail on several occasions, telling me basically the same thing. You don't think he's trying to scam us, do ya'???
