Good evening Thanx for the invite kathy with a K. Scammers abound!! Just have to report them to Adland asap/ The office will delet them quickly.. It doesn't matter how many times we all see these scam adds they are still a real pain in the back side ,(Butt):( By not responding to them ,they don't get any information about any one. At least this type of scam we can all tell they are scams .It is the others that really look like legitimate programs that are worse as we don't know until it is to late and we have spent money for not!!%^^$$#^%.I just read today in fact that the police say these programs are funding terrorist activities??!! That is a real scarry situation. But as see it we here at Adland do stick fairly close by each other and are weeding them out of Adland at least. Have a good evening and remember to keep your dreams oput in front of you. Ron :)

Hi Kathy, I received this same personal message. I sent it to Bogdan so he can deal with this person. People who do this should be automatically removed from the community. Best regards, Leonard

Thank You Kathy for posting this letter and Thank You too Sherry for Reporting it to our Adlanders. I get a minimum Of at least 50 of these letters daily They are called the African Sacm Letter. They start out telling they Have some kind of Terminal Illness or something like that and only Have two weeks to live. They have Various Tear Jerker stories in each leter. But Watch out those who Fall for It are asked to put up some money to Retrieve the Millions of Dollars and Have it all deposited in Your bank account. After You send them the Money You will Never hear from them agaain. They Dissappear. One Guy was Reported as Having a Heart attack and was Deceased By His Attourney then the Deceased person wrote me again and asked me where was His moey. Your DEAD Towel Head ! Oh Yes, they don't Like being called Towel Heads because they wear Little Sheets folded a certain way and wrap them arojnd their Head so stop Balling them Towel heads call them (Little Sheet Heads) instead ! All of these African Scam letters Vary quite a bit some are about Having You hold on to their Money and give it to Charitys after they they die. They all want You to send money to the lawyer handling the case and if You do every one Dissapperas and You are out of Your money and Left with Nothing. I just Hit the SPAM button for these Emails and they are added to the Blocked list. Conrad

Kathy, Same person has hit me twice in the last two days, under different user names, though the name in the letter is the same. I sent it to Michael both times, and mentioned I thought we had gotten rid of her. He replied that they have deleted 11 previous accounts and now this 12th one that I sent yesterday. I sent the last one today and he's on top of that one too. Seems 'she' (who knows, really?) has several IP addresses, so they are having trouble keeping up with the accounts. This person is persistent and resourceful. I suggest we eradicate 'her' the same way one eradicates taggers (gang-related spray paint artists). Each time you get one of these, copy and paste the user name, which is at the top of the letter, into an email to either Bogdan or Michael. They will delete the account. Eventually this scammer will go somewhere else. DO NOT, under any circumstances, answer the email! That will only encourage whoever is behind it. They will only go away if we do not respond in any way other than to get the account deleted. Maybe these people are all connected in some way and the word will spread that Adland isn't fertile hunting ground. Kathy, thanks for informing your friends. If a few people who have the biggest lists will do this, no one at Adland will be uninformed. Cheri PS, the first link below is my forum thread about this and similar scams, in a humorous vein.
