    My first received scam e-mail


    I know it's rare in this day and age, but until now I have never received one of these e-mails. Now I have:

    Greetings,

    I have been waiting for you since to contact me for your Bank Check of
    ($2,000,000.00 USD) I did not hear from you since then,so i deposited
    the Check with FedEx Delivery Service, in West Africa. I will be
    travelling out of the Country for a 3 months course and I will not be
    back till the end of July.

    All you have to do now is to contact the FedEx Delivery service
    immediately, for the delivery of your check, please note that, I have
    paid for the Insurance and delivery charge, so the only money you have
    to send to the FedEx company is $250 USD for their immediate action,
    being the security keeping fee of the company so far.

    Contact: Dispatch Director
    Mr.Patrick Oloye
    Email Address: patoloye@8u8.com
    Telephone Number: +234 - 807-497-6463

    Please make sure you call or contact them via email immediately you
    receive this mail with your Complete Postal / mailing address and
    telephone number, to avoid any complication or difficulty in the
    delivery and remember to send them their $250 USD for their immediate
    action, so as to avoid reaching the expiring date.

    Yours Faithful
    Miss Princess Claudia

    It fails on so many levels

    The only thing wrong with the email is that he spelt his name wrong,Mr.Patrick Oloye, he should have spelt it Mr Patrick I lie or just liar,

    That would have been too obvious, considering how 'believable' the rest of it was

    he could have signed it THE,LION KING

    lol, yeah :)

    I was feeling left out all these years and then bang! I'm offered 2 million dollars pursuant to a conversation that never took place to begin with....

    What is annoying though is that my address has obviously made it to the scamming lists

    Lucky it's just a throw away one.
