IN MY JUNK MAIL......

Postby pretty-as-pink » Fri Jan 28, 2011 6:27 pm

I Cant believe this email has been sent to me today.
I have never even heard of this person, let alone want to marry them, its a female anyway :shock: And he/she can wait as long as they like, I will never reply to this rubbish :wink:

It read.......

Hello My Dearest,
My name is Biba Lorna Laboso, 23 years old originated from Nairobi-Kenya, East Africa, Female, tall, slim, fair and a very good looking girl that loves travelling and dancing, a student, that loves to be loved, I want you to also understand that your Age, distance, Religions does not matter to me, kindly permit me to be contacting you through this medium, I am compelled to contact you via this medium for obvious reasons which you will understand when we discuss details of my proposition.

My father the former Assistant Minister of Home Affairs and the Kenya road Minister Mr. Kipkalya Kones had been on board the Cessna 210, which was headed to Kericho and crashed in a remote area called Kajong'a, in western Kenya . The plane crashed on the Tuesday 10th, June, 2008.

You can read more about the crash through the belowsite:http://edition.cnn.com/2008/WORLD/africa/06/10/kenya.crash/index.html

After the burial of my father, my step-mother threatened to kill me because of my father's properties without having knowledge of the money my fater deposited in one of the banks in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso with my name as the next of kin before his dead which amount is ($4.2 USD) Million United State Dollars. I travelled down to Burkina Faso to withdraw the money so that I can start a better life and take care of myself.

On my arrival, the Branch manager of the Bank whom I met in person told me that my father left an instruction with the bank that the money will be release to me only when I am married or I should present a trustee who will help me and invest the money overseas. I have chosen to contact you after my prayers and I believe that you will not betray the trust I have on you. But rather take me as your own daughter or your Sister. Though you may wonder why I am so soon revealing myself to you without knowing you, well, I will say that my mind is convinced that you are the true person to help me stand as my trustee since I am not yet married.

More so, I will like to disclose much to you if you can help me to relocate in your country because my Step-Mother has threatened to assassinate me. Also be informed that I have confirmed from the bank in Burkina Faso that the money is still waiting to be claimed. You will also help me to a place were the money will be establish a more profitable business venture in your Country. Moreover, you will also help me by recommending a nice University in your country so that I will complete my studies.

It is my intention to compensate you with 30% of the total money for your services and the balance shall be my capital in your establishment. As soon as I receive your interest in helping me, I will put things into action immediately. In the light of the above, I shall appreciate an urgent message indicating your ability and willingness to handle this transaction sincerely. Please do keep this only to your self. I beg you not to disclose it to anybody until the money transferred into your bank account and then I will come over to your country.

I am waiting to hear from you soonest,
Yours Sincerely,
Miss. Biba Lorna Laboso.

The good old "419" - still going strong -

I actually got one through the post a few days back - a very badly produced "fill in the name here" letter, with stamp on it!

By my reckoning I must have about 432 very rich but dead relatives, (or at least people with a similar surname), and on at one crashed airliner just about everybody must have been stinking rich, (and by good fortune I was related or known to most of them, or by reputation to their bankers) and have such a reputation for probity that it has reached deepest Africa and the ears of the relatives of the (mostly dead) great and the good who have problems transfering money the normal way.

The world bank must have several hundred cheif cashiers in iots nigerian branch,

I must by now be on the FBI wanted list as I have allegedly committed so many criminal offences bby not contacting them to collect many hundreds of millions in Government money I am owed for contarcts I never knew I had signed....

Oh and I have won about 200 lotteries,

On the basis of what I have been told by these people just gagging to give me money I am so rich that I have sufficient money to pay off the US ational debt and still have change,

Sadly I dont have a bean, so cannot pay the quite reasonable fees that these people need to pay me the money - they wont accept an IOU or even a bigger slice of the pie - only cash

Can you therfore send me a non-refundable $500, and I promise, I really do, that when my boat comes in and all of the people pay me what they say they owe, I'll split the procedes 50-50.....
