It makes you wonder if we should really warn that type of person, but I guess we should... An interesting thing happened to us the other day (sounds like that start of a old music hall joke) We joined an international business ezine/consortium thing, basically to get more customers for our stores.. Suprise Suprise! The first 20 odd emails we got in our back office of this program where all from African nations... If you added up all the money that we were entitled to, we would be rivaling Steve Wynn & Bill Gates in to how much we were worth. Also got orders for 1,000,000 (1 million) white t-shirts for a Nigerian prison, 20,000 security cameras for a Lagoos (Nigeria) security company & 50,000 air tasers for a police force(!) Some how, we think these might be a con of some description & unless we hear more (doubt it) we will ignore these along with all the others we rceive from these nations. Anthony.

Anthony, Ther greedy something for nothing crowd that responded to this would be led down the Prim Rose Path untill they were informed that in order to transfer the money they would have to send their bank transfer information! Gottcha!!!!! Their bank account would be gone in less than 24 hours. Have you ever wondered why these phishers don't have a ligit business? To them, it is the thrill of the scam! James & Billie

Hi Anthony, Thanks for the heads-up again. If these scammers put half the time into something legit as they do with their scams they would actually make a ton of honest money. I guess some will never learn.
