Subject: RE: BS: I'm rich, beyond my wildest dreams! From: Ron Davies Date: 15 Jul 06 - 07:26 PM It's certainly good they're avoiding "unwarranted abuse of this program". So this time only warranted abuse of the program will be permitted. |

Subject: RE: BS: I'm rich, beyond my wildest dreams! From: Ebbie Date: 15 Jul 06 - 07:31 PM Frogprince, keep in mind that a million pounds doesn't go as far as it used to. You would think, though, that it's a large enough sum that they could afford to bring the check to your door. :) |

Subject: RE: BS: I'm rich, beyond my wildest dreams! From: GUEST,Blind DRunk in Blind River Date: 15 Jul 06 - 07:47 PM Far flippin' OUT, man! Now that yer, like, filthy rich couldya, like, spare a few bucks to help out a pal? I need a truckload of beer. It's an emergency, eh? I wouldn't ask if it wasn't like a matter of life and death, eh? Send the beer to Blind River, Ontario, Canada and make it out to Shane McBride, Generel Deliverry. I am pretty famus around here so don't worry about nothin' gettin' lost or fallin' inta "the wrong hands". I need it by next weekend! Spare no flippin' expense! - Shane |

Subject: RE: BS: I'm rich, beyond my wildest dreams! From: GUEST,Blind DRunk in Blind River Date: 15 Jul 06 - 07:53 PM Geez! I fergot to mention that when I said "truckload" I was thinkin' of a 16-wheeler, eh? Not one o' them little trucks. This is a MAJER emergency here and a whole lotta beer is needed, so figger a 16-wheeler truck that is basically full. To the roof. That should do it, eh? Thanks! Yer a pal! I will not ferget this either. Trust me. - Shane p.s. No American beer! Make it Canuck beer all the way! I got standards. |

Subject: RE: BS: I'm rich, beyond my wildest dreams! From: gnu Date: 15 Jul 06 - 07:57 PM What's wrong with Yankee beer? Just need two trucks is all. |

Subject: RE: BS: I'm rich, beyond my wildest dreams! From: frogprince Date: 15 Jul 06 - 07:58 PM Shane, do you have a bank account? If so, send me all the little numbers from the bottom edge of one of your checks, and I'll have the money transferred straight into your account. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: I'm rich, beyond my wildest dreams! From: Peace Date: 15 Jul 06 - 07:58 PM Yeah, but he'll waste valuable drinking time standing at the urinal or in the corner or whatever . . . . |

Subject: RE: BS: I'm rich, beyond my wildest dreams! From: GUEST,Blind DRunk in Blind River Date: 15 Jul 06 - 08:06 PM No kiddin', eh? Wow! Okay, like, I ain't got my own checks at the moment. Alls I can do is give ya the little numbers from one of Don's checkcs. You know, my stoopid brother. He has checks, eh? But...then the money you sent would go to his account... That ain't no good. He might spend it all on the wrong stuff. Geez. Well, it stil couldn't hurt, eh? Cos...like, if Don has a lotta cash I figger some is bound to come my way. Or...I could open an account. Hmmm. This is a tough one. - Shane |
|
Subject: RE: BS: I'm rich, beyond my wildest dreams! From: Peace Date: 15 Jul 06 - 08:07 PM Don't ask him that. He can't see worth a gnat's rear end when he's been into the sauce. You'll end up with someone else's number. Shane's a real turkey like that. |

Subject: RE: BS: I'm rich, beyond my wildest dreams! From: Peace Date: 15 Jul 06 - 08:16 PM In fact, at Thanksgiving time he's locked up in the jail for his own safety. |

Subject: RE: BS: I'm rich, beyond my wildest dreams! From: Rapparee Date: 15 Jul 06 - 09:06 PM Don't sweat it man, 'cause I got the same letter and I've ALREADY sent my reply. That money is comin' to ME, and so it the stuff I won from that guy in the Netherlands. In fact, I'm gonna be richer'n Bill Gates, 'cause I had all the money I've won in England and the Netherlands put in a special account and I've sent that account number to a guy in Nigeria and another guy in China or someplace that are gonna transfer like US $15,000,000 more EACH into my special account. But I like you, Shane. You're a good guy. And to prove it I'm gonna send you an 18-wheeler full of Budweiser! How about that, huh? |
|
Subject: RE: BS: I'm rich, beyond my wildest dreams! From: Ebbie Date: 15 Jul 06 - 09:08 PM Frogprince, never mind these little squabbles. I would help you out without a qualm or a squawk. The little numbers on MY checks- wait a minute - let me get one - 00008244495615099154826980 There are a few more but I figger they can't ALL be important. If you need them, though, just give a holler. Like I said, I'll help you out without a squawk or a squabble. |

Subject: RE: BS: I'm rich, beyond my wildest dreams! From: GUEST,Blind DRunk in Blind River Date: 15 Jul 06 - 09:12 PM No kiddin', eh? Geez. I wonder why I ain't rich yet with all this free money all over? Maybe you are not as bad as I thought, Rapaire. An 18-wheeler fulla Budweiser is somethin' I will not refuse, eh? I meant ta say 18-wheeler the other time too not 16 wheeler. I sometimes lose count. Math was not, like, my best subject, eh? - Shane |
|
Subject: RE: BS: I'm rich, beyond my wildest dreams! From: Rapparee Date: 15 Jul 06 - 09:13 PM And it'll be a reefer (the kind of truck that's like a rolling refridgerator, not the other kind of reefer) so you don't have to waste time cooling the beer down. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: I'm rich, beyond my wildest dreams! From: GUEST Date: 15 Jul 06 - 09:14 PM So how many spatulas will that buy, and how many do you suppose you will own, say, a year from now? |

Subject: RE: BS: I'm rich, beyond my wildest dreams! From: GUEST,Blind DRunk in Blind River Date: 15 Jul 06 - 09:17 PM Flip, man! That is great!!! Where do I wait? At the bus station? I will have a sign ready fer the driver. It will read "The Beer Stops Here". Boy, Don is gonna be majerly impressed this time. He is gonna have to shake his little brother's hand this time and admit that Shane IS THE MAN! I can't hardly wait. - Shane |

Subject: RE: BS: I'm rich, beyond my wildest dreams! From: Rapparee Date: 15 Jul 06 - 09:30 PM I been thinkin' about where to send the beer, and I think that I'll have it delivered to 34 Woodward Avenue. I heard that you hang around there alot so you'll probably be there when it arrives. Unless you'd rather drink it outa town -- how about at 55 King Street West, Kingston? Be a bit of a drive, but it's beer, man! |

Subject: RE: BS: I'm rich, beyond my wildest dreams! From: wysiwyg Date: 15 Jul 06 - 09:33 PM OK, you can adopt me! ~S~ |

Subject: RE: BS: I'm rich, beyond my wildest dreams! From: Rapparee Date: 15 Jul 06 - 09:39 PM You want some Budweiser too? |

Subject: RE: BS: I'm rich, beyond my wildest dreams! From: frogprince Date: 15 Jul 06 - 09:46 PM Golly gee, thanks, Ebbie; (How much did you say you have in that bank account?...) |

Subject: RE: BS: I'm rich, beyond my wildest dreams! From: GUEST,Art Thieme Date: 15 Jul 06 - 10:14 PM Very disappointing!! I was sure I'd find this to be one of Jerry's lovely threads, but... Art ;-) |

Subject: RE: BS: I'm rich, beyond my wildest dreams! From: Stilly River Sage Date: 15 Jul 06 - 10:18 PM You don't believe that announcement? Really? Well forward it to me then, and I'll cash it in. I have a few bills to pay. . . ;-D |

Subject: RE: BS: I'm rich, beyond my wildest dreams! From: Little Hawk Date: 15 Jul 06 - 10:53 PM Oh, I see. Well, that's just about perfect, isn't it? |
|
Subject: RE: BS: I'm rich, beyond my wildest dreams! From: Ebbie Date: 16 Jul 06 - 03:37 AM I have rethought it, Frogprince, and have decided that what you really need is an adviser. I'm real good at that. |

Subject: RE: BS: I'm rich, beyond my wildest dreams! From: John MacKenzie Date: 16 Jul 06 - 09:43 AM I have enough money to last me till the end of my life now. Provided I die by 5 PM on Wednesday next! G |

Subject: RE: BS: I'm rich, beyond my wildest dreams! From: Tig Date: 17 Jul 06 - 09:02 AM Hey - guess what? We're sharing! And have you had the other letter if you actually contact the number??? Our checker gave us the phone number of the place so purely out of curiosity (we knew it was spam) Badger gave it a ring. It's a private number with a confused wife at the other end. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: I'm rich, beyond my wildest dreams! From: frogprince Date: 17 Jul 06 - 12:57 PM I really didn't consider replying; I figured they hoped to get enough personal info to mess around seriously in your business. Would this really just come from someone who gets that big an orgasm out of making a nuisance of himself and loading people up with spam? I've just started to get a major influx of really great news in the last few days; I have several million dollars coming in contractor fees from the Nigerian government, and so many great stock investment tips I don't know where to begin. I replied to the Nigerian letter as "Shirley Yewar Jesting", and they sent me further instructions addressed by name. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: I'm rich, beyond my wildest dreams! From: Little Hawk Date: 17 Jul 06 - 01:21 PM If you like, you could now engage in a very lengthy correspondence with them as "Shirley Yewar Jesting" and waste their time. Try to set up a personal meeting in some European city with one of their representatives. Pick a time and a place. Then don't show up. Give them an excuse and arrange a new time and place, and again don't show up. Tell them you're sending the money (fees, of course) to a specific bank by bank draft, and make them waste more time trying to pick it up. Send them bogus photos of "Shirley" and insist that they send back photos of themselves or you will not proceed. Flirt outrageously with your contact, reinforcing his already established impression that all western women are totally without morals. Ask him to send a nude photo, and promise you will do the same if he follows through. This is if you have a lot of time on your hands... ;-) |

Subject: RE: BS: I'm rich, beyond my wildest dreams! From: Rapparee Date: 17 Jul 06 - 01:36 PM One thing I use as a clue is the email address. I kinda figure that a legit offer would't use Yahoo or Netscape or Hotmail, etc. as a return address -- a legit business can most probably afford a REAL email address. And then there is the WHOIS lookup. I did one of these on a "bank problem" email found that the IP was registered to an address in an industrial park in Cairo, Egypt. |

Subject: RE: BS: I'm rich, beyond my wildest dreams! From: JohnInKansas Date: 17 Jul 06 - 02:55 PM How come 99.42% of the SPAM I get has a hotmail.ca return addy? (That's CAmbodia, right?) John |
