    Too poor to list anything interesting.
    It's probably from all that excess money you received from the Nigerian Prince.

    I do physical therapy in nursing homes in the evenings for some extra loot. One evening one of the ladies who works in the kitchen received a phone call from someone claiming that she had won a shitload of money.

    They wanted her to wire them a few hundred bucks to cover transfer fees, then they would deposit like 1.2 million dollars in her bank account after she provided them with her bank account information.

    She was so sure that she was a millionaire that she called the nursing home administrator on the spot and told her to get fucked in the neck, and "I'm rich, bitch!" Then walked out.

    They let her come back to work about a week later after she figured out she'd been had. I personally believe that the shame of returning to work and asking for your job back would be worse than actually getting fired for the tirade.

    Ive taken countless police reports for fraud or identity theft for people that fall for this. The victims run across all ethnic boundaries, any race, any age, any sex. People fall for this crap all the time then get pissed when the police cant do much more then file a report.

    NW Washington, D.C. 20535-0001 )


    ATTENTION FUND BENEFICIARY,


    This is an official advice from the F.B.I foreign Operation Unit, it has come to our notice that the C.B.N Bank Nigeria district has released 10,500,000.00 US dollars into bank of America in your name as the beneficiary, by inheritance means.


    The C.B.N Bank Nigeria knowing fully well that they do not have Enough facilities to effect this payment from the united kingdom to your account, used what we know as a secret diplomatic transit payment (S.T.D.P) to pay this fund through wire transfer, they used this means to complete the payment.


    Due to the increased difficulty and unnecessary security by the American authorities when funds come from outside of Europe, and the Middle East, the FBI bank commission for Europe has stopped the transfer on its way to deliver payment of $10,500,000.00 to debit your reserve account and pay you through a secured diplomatic transit account (S.D.T.A). We govern and oversee funds transfer for the World Bank and the rest of the world. We advice you contact us immediately, as the funds have been Stopped and are being held in our custody, until you can be able to provide us with a diplomatic immunity seal of transfer (DIST) within 3 days from the world local bank that authorize the transfer from where the funds was transferred from to certify that the funds that you are about to receive from Nigeria are antiterrorist/drug free or we shall have cause to cross and impound the Payment, we shall release the funds immediately we receive this legal documents.

    As bad as these Nigerian scams are what are worse are the scam artists that are given tax-exempt status in the US. Google "Popoff" and you will learn how to scam little old ladies out of millions a year by the perfectly legal means of forming a church.

    My cousin is a prince in Nigeria and he's supposed to send me some money as soon as the $500 check I mailed him clears. (-:
