I was just checking my e-mail and found a message sent to me through this site. Far from being an e-mail from a fellow fan, it was a knock-off of the Nigerian e-mail scam (where you send them your banking information to help someone sneak millions of dollars out of their troubled country in return for a 20% cut and then they clear out your bank account instead). It's a fairly bizarre e-mail, so here it is in all its glory (please note: by posting this, I am certainly not encouraging any of you to engage in a relationship with, or give banking information to, this person. In fact, I would think you're pretty stupid if you did either):
Oh yeah, and Dave, could you please revoke laarni's membership?

Dear,
Please excuse if i have invaded your privacy. I am in honest need for assistance from you i have been suffering from long term oppression due to jealousy and my personal achievements in life ,Though you wonder what is your concern but please i have no option but cry out for assistance to you having gone through your profile i think i am convinced you are the right fellow to confide this to and could be of help to me and my resettlement plans to go into joint investment venture with you if you are willing to consider my plight and purpose of contacting .
I am Ate Laarni Enriquez, a Filipinos by nationality, and single. Honestly I would like to have a long lasting and confidant relationship with you ,if possible entrusting my life time fortune into your possession, as now I am broken hearted and needs someone to trust, without remembering my past and forsaken experiences from close confidants and family.
I need someone, who would take me for whom I am and as a life time partner, after making claims of my deposited life fortuned in Abroad. Well, from your profile, I believe in me that you ought to be a very honest person. I would like to give you a brief description of my life autobiography
I was once the mistress of our President, Joseph Estrada, and during his tenure in office, I was often used as a courier in depositing his(the president) funds, in the Europe, and Africa because of my honesty but his wife Madam Lois and her son-Jude, accused me of having secret affair with the president ,this
led to fabrication of all kind of allegation against just to disrepute my honestly earned fame
But, not quite long, I was arrested, together with his wife and son, in connection with the 27th July, 2003, failed coup for working in the household of the ex-president Joseph Estrada .Although i was later granted bailed as there was no substantial evidence against me , now I have been released but under security watch within state confinement with limited opportunity to reach the outside world to prove my innocence. All, I want from you is to assist me make
claims of some funds, I did deposited in metallic truck box in security company in Coted Ivory-a remote states in Africa. Every other deposit have been confiscated and seized by the the government of Madam Gloria the President of republic of Philippine . But, this one is the only one they could not see, as I did kept the deposit certificate and deposit agreement with one of my close confidant
The Amount being deposited is much about 17.5 Million United states dollars, as this was the money that was supposed to be used by the President to acquire some properties in Africa.
All, I want from you, now is honesty and sincerity, as, as soon as this money is claimed by you, I will look for a way out and sneaked out of Philippines and travel down to meet you in your country , the shipment cost and demurrage has being taken care
I would like us to go into investment partnership together by investing this fund in your country and anywhere else you prefer. I will send you my Photo, the a deposit certificate and authoritative agreement and one or more hints about this later if you are interesting in the helping out please never undermine this as this is legitimate, risk free and cost free i think all expected of you is lassoing role with a lot reciprocals merit attached to it.
Not to mentioned instant benefit of five million united states dollars as soon as the shipment is accomplished within two days depending on your liassoing capacity because all major cost including shipment charge,demuurage and custodian charges already settled
Without wasting your time i am humbly requesting you to contact me at my private contact below the reason for this is that there is need for some confidentiality to be exercised couple with the fact that i am not yet a full registered member.
