Subject: URGENT BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP
 
DEAR AMERICAN:
 
I NEED TO ASK YOU TO SUPPORT AN URGENT SECRET BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP WITH A TRANSFER OF FUNDS OF GREAT MAGNITUDE.
 
I AM MINISTRY OF THE TREASURY OF THE REPUBLIC OF AMERICA. MY COUNTRY HAS HAD CRISIS THAT HAS CAUSED THE NEED FOR LARGE TRANSFER OF FUNDS OF 800 BILLION DOLLARS US. IF YOU WOULD ASSIST ME IN THIS TRANSFER, IT WOULD BE MOST PROFITABLE TO YOU.
 
I AM WORKING WITH MR. PHIL GRAM, LOBBYIST FOR UBS, WHO WILL BE MY REPLACEMENT AS MINISTRY OF THE TREASURY IN JANUARY. AS A SENATOR, YOU MAY KNOW HIM AS THE LEADER OF THE AMERICAN BANKING DEREGULATION MOVEMENT IN THE 1990S. THIS TRANSACTIN IS 100% SAFE.
 
THIS IS A MATTER OF GREAT URGENCY. WE NEED A BLANK CHECK. WE NEED THE FUNDS AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE. WE CANNOT DIRECTLY TRANSFER THESE FUNDS IN THE NAMES OF OUR CLOSE FRIENDS BECAUSE WE ARE CONSTANTLY UNDER SURVEILLANCE. MY FAMILY LAWYER ADVISED ME THAT I SHOULD LOOK FOR A RELIABLE AND TRUSTWORTHY PERSON WHO WILL ACT AS A NEXT OF KIN SO THE FUNDS CAN BE TRANSFERRED.
 
PLEASE REPLY WITH ALL OF YOUR BANK ACCOUNT, IRA AND COLLEGE FUND ACCOUNT NUMBERS AND THOSE OF YOUR CHILDREN AND GRANDCHILDREN TO WALLSTREETBAILOUT@TREASURY.GOV SO THAT WE MAY TRANSFER YOUR COMMISSION FOR THIS TRANSACTION. AFTER I RECEIVE THAT INFORMATION, I WILL RESPOND WITH DETAILED INFORMATION ABOUT SAFEGUARDS THAT WILL BE USED TO PROTECT THE FUNDS.
 
YOURS FAITHFULLY MINISTER OF TREASURY PAULSON

Um yeah sure you can't send it to your family but you can send it to me someone that is posing to be your family member! Right that sounds fishy like a $2 w! Maybe they don't send it to there family members cause they will hunt them down and kill them or maybe they just gonna suck you dry. Then they don't ask for one of your accounts info they for them all including your family members. What the hell do they think we are all that stupid? I can understand some people are but come on even those people are like that sounds very weird! Oh and they couldn't say it if it wasn't true. Where have you been? They can say anything they want. This is the internet. So who is gonna stop them from saying what ever they want! I haven't seen to many internet COP's out on patrol. LOL  And if its not a scam why let them use you? they have all the gain no mention of what you get in return. I do know that in order to do something like this it would take legal paperwork not an email. So if ya want jump on the wagon but when you get took whine over there in the corner.

Just remember...there's NO such thing as free money.:hick:

Here's an oxymoron: "Easy money ain't."

It's all common sense, lol.
