The Nigerian Connection!

I am sure that most who have a Yahoo e-mail account will be able relate to the following. Primarily these attempts to get money from honest, hard working people begin in Nigeria. If all the money that I allegedly won in the lottery and being the only living beneficiary of some obscure oil tycoon, I would be a billionaire. These Nigerians are persistent if nothing else. They have even sent to me letters from Robert Mueller, the director of the F.B.I. attesting that the fund was legal and to trust the individuals with whom I was dealing.

The first indication that it is a fraud is that no lottery in the world notifies the winners by e-mail. Secondly, if the e-mail is sent through a free provider like Hotmail, Yahoo, and Gmail, it is an absolute scam. Thirdly, when they ask you to send a certain amount through a wire, it is again an attempt to play on our hopes and dreams. You've heard the old saying, "if it sounds to good to be true it probably is." Having had a lot of experience with these cretons, I have come to despise them with a passion. I have never lost a dime to them, but how many others took it hook, line, and sinker! The frustrating aspect of this whole thing is that there are very vague laws on the books of individual countries, but no global body to ajudicate these matters. On one particularly pathetic attempt the perpetrator claimed to have staked his entire families assets on the certainty that this transaction would result favorably for him.

He claimed that I was the named beneficiary to a 15 million USD estate from an estranged uncle. When he finally realized that I was on to him he literally cried on the phone begging me to send him $360. What interests me is how many people fell into their trap and how much was lost? Word must have gotten around about me because I have not received any e-mails of this nature in over a week. I usually received at least two a day. In my view with the advent of the internet the international community must, on this issue, cooperate.

My name is Danny Alexander and I reside in Tacoma, Washington which sits about 45 miles south of Seattle. I was in commercial banking until 1994 when I was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis and due to my health it was best if I retire and collect disability. The doctor that diagnosed the MS assured me that I would be a para or quadraplegic within 5 years. I am happy to report that I still walk! So if a doctor diagnosis you with an ailment that threatens your life, be strong and fight the good fight.
