I Love My Spam

This came in the inbox:

My name is Jennifer Wilson I am a dying woman who have decided to donate what I have to church. I am 64 years old and I was diagnosed for cancer for about 7 years ago, immediately after the death of my husband who lived all his life in America, who has left me everything he worked for.

I have been touched by God to donate from what I have inherited from my late husband for the good work of God, rather than allow my relatives to use my husband hard earned funds ungodly. Please pray that the good Lord forgive me my sins. I have asked God to forgive me and I believe He has because He is a merciful God. I will be going in for an operation soon. I decided to WILL/donate the sum of $5,500,000 (Five million five hundred thousand dollars) to you for the good work of the lord, and also to help the motherless and less privilege and also for the assistance of the widows according to (JAMES 1:27).

…

And tell her that I have WILLED ($5,500,000.00) to you and I have also notified her that I am WILLING that amount to you for a specific and good work. I know I don’t know you but have been directed to do this. Thanks and God bless.

NB: I will appreciate your utmost confidentiality in this matter until the task is accomplished as I don’t want anything that will jeopardize my last wish. And Also I will be contacting with you by email as I don’t want my relation or anybody to know because they are always around me.

Regards,
Jennifer Wilson

Whoops. I broke our confidence.

I’ll admit, though, I actually read the email… the spam people are getting good. They know me so well!

I get about two or three of those a week, though usually they’re from some rich widow in Nigeria or Kuwait. 🙂

*Looks right, looks left* Mriana whispers, “I haven’t gotten anything like this… yet. Hope I never do too.”

Unlike other spammers, these idiots can be manipulated into providing hours of entertainment. Google for ‘Spam baiting’ to see what can be done with them.

You get a rich widow from Nigeria or Kuwait two or three times a week? You use protection, don’t you?

I am WILLING that amount to you for a specific and good work.

Hey, she may be 64 but it’s good to find a WILLING woman.
