I bow to you, DL.

This is hilarious, and it's probably going to end up being the top thread of 2009 as it is.

But if you manage to get that "hello plime" photo from him, I'll probably tell my grandchildren about it in 2039.

((((Emilp))))

Do you need me to send you money for an air fare to come and meet me?!

Once you get your 20%. I lost all my money after sending it to a merchant in Dubai for some items that I never received. Thank you

Ok, so Mr.Mubaraq seems to have deleted his email accounts as all emails just come bouncing back

I was mildly disappointed but today I received this.....


Dear Beloved,

It is by the grace of God that I received Christ,having known the truth,I had no choice than to do what islawful and right in the sightof God for eternal life and in the sight of man for witness of God & his mercies and glory upon my life. I am Mrs Cynthia J Ruud the wife of Mr. Fred Ruud from Singapore,my husband worked with the Chevron/Texaco for twenty years before he died in the year 2001.

We were married for ten years without a child.My Husband died after a brief illness that lasted for only four days.Before his death we were both born again Christians. Since his death I decided not to re-marry or get a child outside my matrimonial home which the Bible is against.When my late husband was alive he deposited the sum of US$18.5M.(Eighteen Million Five Hundred Thousand U.S.Dollars) with a Security Company in Nigeria Presently,this money is still with the Security company and the management just wrote me as the beneficiary to come forward to sign for the release of this money or rather issue a letter of
authorization to somebody to receive it on my behalf if I can not come over.

Presently,I'm in a hospital in St George's Hospital, Blackshaw Road, United Kingdom where I have been undergoing treatment for esophageal cancer.I have since lost my ability to talk and my doctors have told me that I have only a few weeks to live.

It is my last wish to see this money distributed to charity organizations anywhere in the World.Because relatives and friends have plundered so much of my wealth since my illness,I cannot live with the agony of entrusting
this huge responsibility to any of them. Please,I beg you in the name of God to help me Stand and collect the Funds from the Security Company.

I want a person that is God fearing that will use this money to fund churches,orphanages and widows propagating the word of God and to ensure that the house of God is maintained.

The Bible made us to understand that blessed is the hand that giveth.I took this decision because I don't have any child that will inherit this money and my husband's relatives are not Christians and I don't want my husband's hard earned money to be misused by unbelievers.I don't want a situation where this money will be used in an ungodly manner.

Hence the reason for taking this bold decision. I am not afraid of death hence I know where I am going.

I know that I am going to be in the bosom of the Lord.Exodus {14 VS14} says that the lord will fight my case and I shall hold my peace.I don't need any telephone communication in this regard because of my soundless voice and presence of my husband's relatives around me always.I don't want them to know about this development. With God all things are possible. As soon as I receive your reply I shall give you the contact of the security company, so that you can contact them directly for the release of the funds to you ..

Mrs .Cynthia J Ruud

You know I got the same email recently and I answered it for some reason. Today I got a 500pounds account with United Bank Ltd in London. And I already transferred 500,000 pounds to my account in Tokyo. Mr. Mubaraq was not kidding or scamming. Ha! ha! Ha!

I need your help with this. All I need is your account details, address, full name, date of birth, and social security number.

Best post ever. Am I the only upvoter?

I'm more interested in if anyone else wanted prof

Landed in my inbox



Greetings,

My name is Sgt. Donald scott. I am an American soldier with Swiss background,
serving in the military with the army 3rd infantry division.With a very
desperate need for assistance, I have summed up courage to contact you. I found
your contact particulars in an address journal. I am seeking your kind
assistance to move the sum of ( $ 1.7 million u.s.dollars )one million, seven
hundred united states dollars to you, as far as I can be assured that my share
will be safe in your care until I complete my service here, this is no stolen
money, and there are no danger involved. I am presently in a hospital recovering
from injuries sustained in a suicide bomb attack.

Source of money:

Some money in various currencies was discovered in barrels at a farmhouse near
one of Saddam's old palaces in Tikrit-Iraq during a rescue operation, an it was
agreed by staff Sgt Kenneth buff and I that some part of this money be shared
among both of us before informing anybody about it since both of us saw the
money first. This was quite an illegal thing to do, but I tell you what? No
compensation can make up for the risk we have taken with our lives in this hell
hole. Of which my brother in-law was killed by a road side bomb last week.

Please view website for confirmation:



The above figure was given to me as my share, and to conceal this kind of money
became a problem for me, so with the help of a British contact working here and
his office enjoy some immunity, I was able to move the money to a security
company in CHINA as a diplomatic baggage. They are now waiting for us to provide
the name of beneficiary who they will transfer the funds to. The reason i want
you to claim the funds on my behalf is that as a soldier, i cannot present a
concrete evidence on how i made such a big amount of money down here. Besides
the US Government is trying their best to keep their eyes on
soldiers here in order to effect a high level of discipline among us.The moment
i am sure that you are willing to assist me, i will give you the information of
the security company and the security code of the baggage.I want you to tell me
how much you will take from this money for the assistance you will give to me.

One passionate appeal I will make to you is not to discuss this matter with
anybody, should you have reasons to reject this offer, please and please destroy
this message as any leakage of this information will be too bad for us soldiers
here in Iraq. I do not know how long we will remain here, and i have been shot,
wounded and survived two suicide bomb attacks by the special grace of God, this
and other reasons i will mention later has prompted me to reach out for help, i
honestly want this matter to be resolved immediately, please contact me as soon
as possible, my only way of communication is my private email contact

My reply


Hello, first of all i would like to thank you for all you do in service to your country and the risk you put yourself in to make sure us civilians have the freedom we love. I'm so sorry to hear about your brother and I'll be praying for you to find some comfort. Nothing would make me more happy than to help you with your money problem. I truly believe that you deserve to keep that money, it's the least you deserve for putting your life at risk.

Please let me know what i can do to help. I do have one thing I'd be very, very grateful if you could send me a picture of yourself or a fellow soldier holding a sign that says, "Hello Plime" on it. My daughers name is Plime and she would be SO pleased to see a real life soldier doing this. It would make her so happy.


I got back

Dearest Matt,

Thank you very much for your response and willingness to assist me. I have worked endlessly to ensure a smooth and positive arrangement that will foresee the security of these funds from the time of transfer to you and that's why i have to package it as a diplomatic baggage so that no one will have no idea of what is inside the box.

I will give you the information of the security company and the security code of the baggage but wish to let you know first that the entire details and processes that will be involved in this fund transfer will be built on a foundation that is based on COMMITMENT, HONESTY and TRUST, devoid of any external knowledge and kept strictly confidential. Not discussed with anybody ( friends, relations, spouse. even your bank or financial institution where your account is domiciled.) for safety purposes.

For your assistance and kind reply, i have concluded that you will have to keep %30 of the total amount for your self and my %70 in your position till i get out from here. kindly confirm to me once again that my share of the money will be safe in your position till i get off here.

Lastly, Attached is my Identification card and Drivers License alongside with some of my pictures here in Iraq for Identification and that for your daughter "Plime", I will require you to forward your personal information alongside a scanned copy of a valid Identification ( preferably, a Valid International Passport or Drivers License. ) for identification and verification of your legal person.

Yours in Service.

Nigerian a*****e obviously thinks that photo editing is a secret only he knows and can spot. How f**king dumb do they think people are? It's not even good 'shopping

I otter tell you about the guy I know that repeatedly fell for this crud....

Best photoshop ever.

Interestingly enough, that's pretty close to what the military contractor ID's look like. The text is wrong, as well as some basic coloration differences.

What do you reckon about the pixels on the Plime sign though?

What pixels? I don't see pixels. Looks legit to me.

Holy s**t! Did you see the sign?! They put up the sign!

This one is the real deal, DoggyLives! Take this to the bank!
