Millionaire Mail - I

Thieves come in all shapes and all types. We have seen simple pickpocket thief in the bus to the next big planned thief scoot away the whole house in the night and then day light thief who try out his mischievous act to pull something from you.. The list goes endless..

In this current email era, there comes the high tech thieves who work diligently to rip us off with their innovative ideas. I like to call them Millionaire Thieves or Junk mail thieves. Nowadays Junk mails has became a part and parcel of this Internet days. Some of us became very cautious and avoid them by easily filtering them via spam blockers and direct them to go directly to trashbox.

I had just happen to read some of them which ended in my inbox recently and really amazed of the innovative ideas these junk mailers use to get you for the long haul. What a cool move to reel in with a small bait to catch a big fish?

I thought lets take roll. Here is the first one. How the heck the Banker in OUAGADOU(don't even know where it exists in the map) know just me to offer a business proposal. I guess I am famous all over the world huh..
