I would like to thank Mz. Napolitano for taking the time out of her busy day to think of me after the recovery of the loot. One of only 100? Wow. Aren't I special.

If Homeland Security can do this, I wonder if they can track down a few scammers from, say, Kenya. One name does come to mind.

your email address was found in one of the scam Artists file and computer hard disk in Nigeria

I believe her.

Too bad the US Treasury can’t tap into these funds.

[Not A Snowbird]

Scammers are getting very inventive!

[shibumi]

What are you going to buy?

Corvette? Viper? Xb Toaster?

I wish I was as lucky as you.

Darn.

“If Homeland Security can do this, I wonder if they can track down a few scammers from, say, Kenya.”

“Mrs. Janet Napolitano”

Hell, I want them to track down her “husband”.

[John Valentine]

Well, is it $86 or $97 that they want as the initial installment? Ms. Napolitano doesn’t seem able to keep one number firmly in mind from the beginning of a single sentence to the end.

Ha, I had a “spam” message from an “FBI” agent in Benin that told me he won’t prosecute me in the world court if I just send him $65.00 and I’ll be able to have a joint account worth $10,500,000.00. I keep offering them money from my virtual EBT card or asking them if they’ll take $65.00 in used shell casings.

[FlJoePa]

Knowing this administration, it’s probably really from her.

[FredZarguna]

Sorry to burst your bubble, but this is clearly a scam.

Big Sis does not write this well, or with this quality of grammar and punctuation.

[FredZarguna]

Gotta love government accounting.

[Cyber Liberty]

I didn’t know she moved to Nigeria.....

[lp boonie]

Kinda struggles with the english language—doesn’t she?

[piroque]

Man this must be your lucky day. :-)

[Libloather]

the United State Government

Something else hidden in Obamacare?

[Vendome]

LOL

Gotta send that to a friend....

[Bigg Red]

I guess I should be checking the mail for the gold bars that Nigerian diplomat’s daughter was trying to get out of the country with my help.

Congo - gratulations! It’s not every day one gets such an offer! - It’s almost pathetic how hard they try to sound all sophisticated and educated in those scam letters.

[Political Junkie Too]

I've been getting FedEx knock-off emails lately, telling me to go to my nearest FedEx office to pick up my package. Not a specific office, mind you, but any nearest office.
