Who wants a Nigerian roommate.
« on: April 22, 2005, 07:29:42 am »
I am STILL getting Nigerian scammers wanting to rent the room I advertised a few months ago. All total I recieved like 3 honest inquiries and 10 Nigerians.

Here is the latest one.

Acceptance of Zen philosophy is marred slightly by the nagging thought that if all things are interconnected, then all things must be in some way involved with Pauly Shore.

you should have told him/her/it that they would be flushed from the royal nigerian spam force for such blatant errors.  the general mbuta was a nice touch...
its better to not post and be thought a fool, then to whip out your keyboard and remove all doubt...

Yeh, so this person can't even make up his/her mind who he/she is during the course of the "letter".  ::) They use the names Mary Joy, Julian Combell, Vivian Joy, and Vivian Combell.
He/she/it saw your ad, but somehow didn't see the posted pictures? Well if this person couldn't see the pictures posted with your ad then how are they going to see the pictures in an email?

You should reply back that you can only accept gold bullion as during the time that this person went to Africa our country switched back to the gold standard for all transactions.  ;D

Vivan Combell, which spelled in correct english is Campbell. As this peron why they are lying to you and to tell the truth that it's not that embarrasing to be Def Leppard's guitarist, and you would have probably believed them if they would have used the REAL story.

Here's a bio and photo of this guy.
