I finaly Got a piece of the Pie

[CBCNSfan]

It looks like I hit the big times and I'll be moving on up, and since I'm on the East side of the West side of the globe I thankfully won't have to move
But although it says to keep it confidential, I felt I'd just have to share this with my online friends. I'm just too excited to fill it out just yet but considering it's on Yahoo I just might
Anyway I thought I should ask for your thoughts on my good fortune but I don't understand why I should win a prize when I didn't enter any contest.

The way I see it, with "Nelson Mandela (chairman.)" as President how could a person go wrong unless he voided the offer by posting it on a public forum.
Now what do you think of that?

And all I get is people telling me I need Viagra, my p***s is too small, and what I have to do to satisfy my woman.

I wish I knew how all those people found out.

 

[Steve B]

I'd be very warey of this,,, it smell's of the Nigerian Fraud scam Lotto's take a look at this BEFORE you take any action FRAUD LOTTO Don't become another victim

FRAUD It is a Fraud, i found this relating to your e-mail letter on
ScamDex

 

[grande man]

Congrats from Nelson Mandela, LOL! Yum, that's some good pie you got a slice of there, Willis.

And all I get is people telling me I need Viagra, my p***s is too small, and what I have to do to satisfy my woman.

I wish I knew how all those people found out.

Huh, I must be worse then you, I get 5+ a day, to 3 different email accounts (totaling 15+!).

I'd be very warey of this,,, it smell's of the Nigerian Fraud scam Lotto's take a look at this BEFORE you take any action FRAUD LOTTO Don't become another victim

I'm pretty sure he already knew that it is fake

I get an average of 30-50 emails a day, and I'd say at least 15-20 are junk. Lotto emails like this one, the colorful pills Space mentioned, and lots of strange stock tips...

 

[CBCNSfan]

Ah! yes I was aware it's a scam, but my thanks Steve for the warning, even around this neck of the woods scams come in daily, and it's sad to say a lot of people are still getting scammed. The whole thing is based on greed. The most dangerous one is the telephone call saying you won a vacation or a cruise, all you have to do is call a certain number in the Caribbeans to claim it. That call would cost $$$$$$$
We got a new twist to it today, all we were asked to do was dial 9 and hang up. Wow! I wouldn't want to get the bill for that one.
I wish I had the time to take this one further (scam the scammer) because it's wide open for a runaround.

I wish I knew how all those people found out.

Chip you had better talk to the only one who could tell

Yes I get those offers too usually on my eBay mail address, now at 72 years old I haven't figured out why I'd need them
Anyway here's the latest off my eBay email addy
