Public service announcement.

Post by oceanpearl » Wed Mar 05, 2008 12:06 pm

There is a new email scam coming out of Nigeria and Benin. It usually starts out with the news that thisperson has been hired by someone to KILL you. It also states that this person has you under surveillance. Being a nice guy he would rather have you pay him not to kill you and also offers to tell you who hired hi if you pay him not to kill you.
If any of you get any messages of this type I would appreciate it if you forward them to me. We are working with international governments in tracking this type of slime down.
Thanks
Ben

I thought some ninny politicians created the patriot act to make it illegal for people to terrorize us Americans like that … what the heck are they doing with all that illegal surveillance they’re conducting anyway?

How do I know you're not just looking to contact the people who hired someone to kill me to undercut their prices huh?

Liam, not paranoid, practical.

Yes indeed that would be totally uncompetitive, un-American and an unfair trade deal too … but it may bring back some of those outsourced jobs.

They may have turned enforcement to "HomeLand Security", and all the agents are out on sick leave, from papercuts. Jim

Remember, you are not being paranoid if they really are out to get you.

Actually, I think I know what happens to the surveillance info ... they have probably contracted it out to Haliburton and AT&T for a few billion dollars who then turn around and outsource it to a call center in Pakistan for a few hundred dollars

You know .... like the border fence with Mexico that was contracted to Boeing who then will subcontract it out to illegal Mexicans to build it for pennies on the dollar ... Corporate America, and the privitization of government for more efficient and economical service for the tax payers

The worst part of that they built the Mexico side of the fence first, then they built the U.S. side. The Illegals couldn't get back to Mexico. Jim
