Apparently my overdue Nigerian inheritance is just waiting on me. Who knew?
I will try to remember all my friends while I am living it up in my new wealthy lifestyle, oh yes.
I do love these Nigerian email scams. The stilted English, the strange phrasings, and the thought that I will rush right away to pay them due to my overwhelming greed. The only sad thing is that some people actually fall for this silliness and lose their money. There’s one born every minute I suppose.
