You know things are sad when HE gets almost more spam than I do:

"Dear Respectable Ralph,

Permite me to inform you of my desire of going into business relationship
with you.

I am Michael J.Karimu, the only son of late Mr and Mrs James Karimu . My
father was a very wealthy cocoa merchant in Abidjan, the economic capital
of Ivory Coast before he was poisoned to by his business associates on one
of their outing to discuse on a business deal. When my mother died on the
21st October 1984, my father took me and my junior sister special because
we are motherless.

Before the death of my father on 30th November 2002 in a private hospital
here in Abidjan. He secretly called me on his bedside and told me that he
has a sum of $10.500.000 (Ten Million, five hundred thousand dollars) left
in a suspence account in one of the local bank here in Abidjan, that he
used my name as his first son for the next of kin in deposit of the fund.

He also explained to me that it was because of this wealth and some huge
amount of money his business associates supposed to balance him from the
deal they had that he was poisoned by his business associates, that I should
seek for a God fearing foreign partner (SOUNDS LIKE RALPHIE to ME!)in a country of my choice where I
will transfer this money and use it for investment purpose, (such as real
estate management).

We are honourably seeking your assistance in the following ways.

1) To provide a Bank account where this money would be transferred to.
2) To serve as the guardian of this since I am a boy of 23 years.

Moreover,we are willing to offer you 15% of the sum as compensation for
effort input after the successful transfer of this fund to your designate
account overseas.

Anticipating to hear from you soonest.
Thanks and God bless you

Michael J. Karimu and Sister."

WOW, how exciting, what a lucky guy.

Don't forget to have him open a bank account for the transfer.

You had better warn Ralphie, my husband was there a couple of years ago on a missions trip. One thing he was looking forward to seeing was the animals. In the village areas where he was, there were none to be seen, all had been eaten as food. He saw some children find a rats nest in the ground, and they pounced on them for food. Very sad, but tell Ralphie to watch out!!

I can just see Ralphie trotting along with the impressively muscular pits on either side, wearing sunglasses and continually glancing from side to side.

You never should have posted Aleksandr Kozlov
email address now everyone knows how to get in touch so I think Ralphie has lost out on this one.

Next time email Ralphie direct, he does have his own email account.

McJane...You're right. I shouldn't have posted if for the Vendio posters to see. But looking on the bright side, I'm trying to help people who have very little money better themselves. So I emailed it to all my NPB's

How nice of you to look after your NPB's, it's the right attitude. They just made a mistake & do not deserve & have a FVF filed against them.

They need understanding & financial assistance & bless you for giving it to them.

You are one in a million to these soon to be millionairs.
