african scam story

Well, I don`t know that everyone knows it`s a scam, Mel.
25 years ago my husband`s uncle received the same story via snail-mail from
Africa. Now it is so much more efficient for them through the internet. It
seems to me there must be enough people who still believe it and send their
bank number, and or $ or it would not still be going on at least 25 years
later.

from Lela, who last week supposedly won 400,000 $ from the Netherlands if I
sent off 1000.00 application fee immediately.

Yeah, I won a million euros in an international lottery recently and
it would only cost me 250 euros processing fee to claim the money.
