I received this e-mail. The Nigerians get really creative with this scam. They promise any one who falls for it, 30% of the total proceeds. And yeah, if its really meant to be top secret, why it is never addressed to the addressee by name? Like the old adage says, "a fool and his money are soonest parted." This is one that has under one variation or another been around as long as there are guillible people to be taken advantage of. Beware.

I think this is really a Nader fund-raising scheme.

Hey looooooooooooooowbridge! What happened to your megaone site? I came late to that party. All that comes up is a come-on to make their cheesy search site my home page, a vibrating pop-up trying to sell me viagra or something, and an offer panel to download spyware that I have to use Win2K Task Manager to kill.

I'd send 'em some money but I've already sent all my life savings to a Nigerian Prince who says the money is waiting for me. I'm on my way to the airport...

I'm going to have to pass on this golden opportunity.
Does anyone have an update on the Nigerian millionaire astronaut stranded at the space station? Poor guy.

I have NO idea what happened to my site. It could have been deleted, but I do not not know for what reason.

Of this is the case, then I'll have to build it somewhere else.

I think I just found out the reason why my website is gone:

TOS: Do not send mass emails or "spam" advertising your website. Complaints of "Spam" will result in deletion of your website.

People were taking it upon themselves to email others about my site (I know I never emailed anyone about it), as a result, someone complained. Goodbye site.

Now I have to build another one.

Actually, I like it when people are emailing others about my site. I LOVE it. But it seems that the people who owns the webspace frowns on that, even if it was out of my control. People were emailing others, it got a mention in a newspaper column (complete with web addresses), and I assume that it grew to the point where total strangers were emailing other total strangers. Someone, or maybe more than one person complained...goodbye website.

I'm going to build a new one somewhere else.

I'm surprised that you didn't get chided on the goings on, if they really are as reported in your other thread and you aren't making part or all of this up. The US government would take a dim view of "scam the scammers" once things of value, and not just email banter, becomes involved.

What'll it take for you to be quiet? How about a nice rolex watch straight from Nigeria?
