Spam Of The Week

Before I start, I have this bad feeling some of you were unable to read the last few posts. I put up this NHL widget and I think it created a bunch of problems. So, my question to you is, can you see the posts now?

Meanwhile, our spam this week comes from Yaro Ojo:

FROM THE DESK OF MR.YARO OJO.
AUDITING AND ACCOUNTING MANAGER,
BANK OF AFRICA,(B.O.A)
OUAGADOUGOU-BURKINA FASO,
WEST AFRICA.

DEAR FRIEND,

I AM MR.YARO OJO,THE AUDITTING MANAGER OF BANK OF AFRICA BURKINA
FASO.DURING MY INVESTIGATION AND AUDITTING IN THIS BANK,I CAME ACROSS A VERY
HUGE SUM OF MONEY BELONGING TO A DECEASED PERSON WHO DIED ON JULY 2002
IN A PLANE CRASH AND THE FUND HAS BEEN DORMANT IN HIS ACCOUNT WITH THIS
BANK WITHOUT ANY CLAIM, EITHER FROM HIS FAMILY OR RELATIONS.THE SAID
AMOUNT IS U.S$1.5m(ONE MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS).

MEANWHILE ALL THE WHOLE ARRANGEMENT TO PUT CLAIMS OVER THIS FUND AS THE
BONAFIDE NEXT OF KIN TO THE DECEASED,GET THE REQUIRED APPROVAL AND
TRANSFER THIS MONEY TO A FOREIGN ACCOUNT HAS BEEN PUT IN PLACE.THE
TRANSFER OF THIS FUND WILL REQUIRE A SECOND PARTY WHO WILL FORWARD CLAIMS AS
THE NEXT OF KIN TO THE BANK AND ALSO PRESENT A FOREIGN ACCOUNT WHERE THE
FUND WILL BE TRANSFERRED AFTER PAYMENT APPROVAL IS GRANTED.THE REQUEST
OF A FOREIGNER AS NEXT OF KIN IN THIS BUSINESS IS OCCASSIONED BY THE
FACT THAT THE CUSTOMER WAS A FOREIGNER AND A BURKINABE CANNOT STAND AS
NEXT OF KIN TO A FOREIGNER.

MOREOVER,I WILL NOT FAIL TO INFORM YOU THAT THIS TRANSACTION IS 100%
RISK FREE.YOU WILL BE ENTITLED TO 30% OF THE TOTAL SUM AS
GRATIFICATION,WHILE 10% WILL BE SET ASIDE TO TAKE CARE OF EXPENSES THAT MAY ARISE
DURING THE TIME OF TRANSFER,60% WILL BE FOR ME.I WILL BE MONITORING THE
WHOLE TRANSACTION HERE IN THIS BANK UNTIL YOU CONFIRM THE TOTAL FUND IN
YOUR ACCOUNT.CONTACT ME IMMEDIATELY IF YOU ARE INTRESTED AND CAPABLE TO
HANDLE THE TRANSACTION.

I AM URGENTLY WAITING FOR YOUR MAIL.
BEST REGARDS,
MR.YARO OJO.


Thanks Yaro. We salute you.

Spam Of The Week

My Audio Circus account gets a ton of spam-mail each week. Therefore, I thought I would highlight the effort people give just to extort you.

This one comes from Lindiwe Zuma:

Hello,

It is out of desperation I am sending you this email. I would like to
remain anonymous for now till I am able to trust your confidentiality
in
this matter.

My husband and I need your help to front for us as owners of funds that
are his which might come under investigation if the funds ownership is
not
changed soonest as my husband's finances are increasingly becoming the
source of investigation by our Detractors.

The source of this fund, which my husband’s earnings would not
validate,
will further sink him into the cesspool dug by our enemies. It is
because
of the dire situation we find ourselves that we resolve to reach you
and
ask for your assistance in this matter.

It is only customary in Africa when one occupies a high position like
my
husband did, to enjoy the privilege of being presented with
gratifications
sometimes through the award of contracts especially by companies that
came
into operation during his tenure. But due to the recent plot by our
detractors towards my husband, hence we immediately wish to move some
funds away that his income cannot account for and which came in form of
gratification while he was in office.

We are averse to letting those we know here in my country into this
transaction because we are no longer sure who our friends are. You will
be
handsomely rewarded if you choose to help us in partnership in this
deal.

I will be expecting to hear from you as soon as possible, and will
disclose further details to you upon your response. Do well not to
disclose the content of this mail to anyone please.

Best Regards,

Mrs. Lindiwe Zuma.


Thanks Lindiwe. We salute you.
