Anyone else want in? [modified]

[R Giskard Reventlov]

Just got the following email: I work in Major Bank in my country my position allows to Arrange for the transfer of a huge volume of funds standing dormant in an account to you as a foreigner. Title documents will be issued in your name to enable you make claim to the funds, It is 100% risk free. Your role is needed as this has to be done with a foreigner. If you are interested kindly reply me with your complete details and phone numbers so I can explain more details and modalities to you. Thanks Ahmed Khan Seems reasonable. Anyone else want in? I'm sure he won't mind if a few of us join in. Here's his email address: tttttttttt752002@hotmail.com I just can't see a downside to this. WTF: why the hell would this get downvoted? Oh, I get it: Ahmed, mate, it's funny: lighten up.

I can, getting the correct number of 't's in his e-mail is going to be hard :)

It's a pity that ten-minute mail doesn't let you send emails: I wouldn't mind giving him my details. He can reach me via the Tesco Clubcard Helpline...

That really is his email address: I still find it hard to believe that people fall for this nonsense. :)

You live outside the M25: you are about as foreign as it gets. :)

I think the opposite is true. I have been inside the M25 and was hard pressed to find an Englishman.

[R Giskard Reventlov]

Damn but you make a good point.

There's a name for that group of people: The Elderly. They grew up in a time when people were generally more trustworthy & don't understand modern tech.
