    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.

    Now I have GOLD coming!!! Got this email today!

    Good Day to you all.
    My name is Precious Charles, a nationality of Ghana. Am a local farmer by profession. I know that this mail will come to you as a surprise, but i really need your help.
    5 days ago when i got to my farm in the process of my weeding and uprooting a certain tree, i found a bag containing Gold. And due to the the law passed in my country that if you are not a Gold miner that has the certificate that shows that you are legally able to trade Gold you will be arrested and detained for 15 years in jail. So with the advise of a friend who said that i should seek the help of a foreigner who i can transfer the Gold to him to her so that he or she can help me sell it.
    That is why i decided to write to as many that gets this mail. according to what i heard that Gold belong to the owner of the farm who was a local Gold miner. And i don't want to mingle with my people, because if they find out they will either kill me or take it away from me. Because as it belongs to a local miner it will cost lots of money if sold.
    So if you are willing to help me, write back to me so that i we can proceed to how i can send it to you through custom here in my country you duty is to receive there in your country.

    Thanks.

    That must be a new one, Annette. I haven't seen that one before. All I ever get is millions and millions of $$$$ from all kinds of sources. I get a real laugh about the one from some military people, claiming how they found millions in barrels on Sadam's property and want me to help get it here to the U.S. Of course, there are some with a newer twist - millions found in Ghadafi's palace. And the crocked banker scams too, wanting me to claim to be some rich deceased person's beneficiary - and we share the same last name. Gee - I didn't know my name was now "undisclosed recipients".
