    Can I skip the Washington hatchet, as I already have two of them, and buy the Nigerian lottery tickets straight from you?

    Default A beautiful gal...

    I received an Email about a year ago from a woman who was supposedly trapped in a motel. A long story came with the note that is not worth repeating, but she needed $900.00 to get away from the motel owner who was holding her captive. Along with the Email was a photo of a very sexy, helpless appearing, nice looking woman.

    I have often wondered how many foolish men bit on that one.

    Maybe I should start a racket like that with my wife. Seems like a solid business plan.

    I can't help but laugh at all the jokes about the Nigerian email scams.

    I have a side business as a wedding photographer, and actually had a guy try a variation on me, where he would mail me a bogus check, and have me send western union payments to the baker, florist, etc.

    I managed to string him along far enough to have him send me a check. It was undoubtedly the worst fake check I've ever seen. I've still got it actually. I keep meaning to frame it and hang it over my desk.

    No, sorry. The best tickets come straight from Nigeria. I'll have my guy send you an email.

    a while back iwas trying to sell a dog on petfinder, which is fantastic btw,that is if you want to sell your dog to a nigerian prince.
    princes coming out of the wood work to buy this dog for thousands more than i wanted. some even included wedding photos and stuff. one i replied to and said sure send the money.
    he send 3 800+ checks, all pretty crumby, totalling 2500 dollars. i have em framed with a pic of the dog and the envelope with the nigerian postage marks
