I never got one of those before...

Apparently it's Rant Day in The Lounge, so... Pesky Nigerians! I got mails from The Bank of Nigeria, The National Lottery of Nigeria, The FBI, hell I even got an email from the US DMV ( :wtf: :wtf: ) about a parking ticket (I live across the world and I don't own a car :wtf: ). But never before have I got an email from The Elephanting US MARINES!!!! And they want to transfer money in my account too! Normally the spamfilter butcheres these, but this one got past. I wonder if it's genuine

I think that BestBuy has hired some of the Nigerians now. My wife and I both got text messages in the last two days saying that we won a contest for $1000. Gotta love those generous Nigerians. ;)

Sounds like a sound long term investment; they are always the first in and last out, in this case, of your account.
