    SERIOUSLY? Last week I helped some poor man recover 25 million of his money from Zimbabwe. He was so nice, he is wiring me one million just for helping...can you believe it? WE ARE BOTH RICH!

    Ok, let's plan a big party somewhere extravagant. Just send me your bank account information and I'll wire you my portion of it, mkay? :)

    Ha! I've won about ten different lotteries so far this month. I don't know why I'm still sitting here blogging since I'm so rich.

    I only got 800,000. I'm getting ripped off. Why do I never get the penis enlargers?

    I get those, along with penis enlargers, viagra, pills to make your sex drive better, pills to make you last longer etc.

    If you're wondering, this is on my office email. I didn't not sign up for that. As for my home email, that's another story altogether! :)

    I often wonder, when I get these types of emails, how many people get sucked in? So you know anyone who has?

    CCG: Our firewall at work is so strict that I don't get any spam at work. Home, obviously, is another subject.

    Mum-me: I don't know of anyone who has fallen for this sort of thing. I hope no one has, especially elderly. They seem to be targets.
