I can't even believe my eyes. This is absolutely appalling. If some poor older person saw this, they might fall for it, and get scammed again. They will pay when they meet their maker. Barbara Barbara Sample RGile Engravers

I was excited to see this, so I immediately sent off my social security number, a copy of my last bank statement (...so these nice Nigerians would be absolutely sure to transfer the money correctly), a photocopy of my drivers license, my home and work address numbers, and a few bucks in cash for the effort in finding me....and their future efforts at catching these crooks.

I'm looking forward to receiving my compensation! In fact, armed with this new-found income, I placed a hefty deposit on a slightly used Aston Martin Vanquish. This will certainly be the hottest company car in town!
