I really love this commercial. Pretty much sums it all up. (French Model) and the Internet.
Checking my Spam mail this morning, I find I’m $41.5 Million dollars richer! Some deceased engineer, left me $30,100,000. A very kind couple have awarded me $1,500,000. I guess they just felt generous. Then there is the confused gentleman, that found $10,000,000 in two metal trunks at JFK airport, that need to be delivered to me. If I’ll just send him all my personal information (minus my dogs name).
Our good friend and fellow blogger, Ellie, will enjoy the grammar in this email. The Saddest part? There is probably some lonely, desperate, person that would fall for it. I was all set to send the email with my information, then realized I have no place to put the two trunks! My office is stacked.
I did find the email entertaining though. I was confused on a few items. Apparently Mr. John Anderson, is the “Assistance General Manager” at an investment firm with a $300 Billion portfolio. He must make a huge yearly income, as he discovered the two trunks containing $10,000,000 during his routine check of luggage. He is the head of Luggage and Baggage storage at JFK airport. The poor man works two managerial jobs!
He needed information from me, so that he could “delivery” my two metal trunks to my door step. “In order words” send him information that he can verify. As I said, I don’t have any place to put 2 metal boxes, in my small office. Do any of you have the extra room, to store two boxes? You can’t use them for much, especially storage, as they are full of money. I’m sharing the worst of the three emails here, for a good chuckle.

Comments always welcome,
Plus, you can say you blogged with a rich guy.
HAHAHA!! “It may cause me my job.” My “good friend,” if it indeed causes you your job, you DESERVE it!!! Hilarious, Ron. My spam folder is full of same!! It is to laugh, thanks!!
I thought you would like that Ellie. I liked his title of, Assistance Manager.
Love it!!
He didn’t ask you for your SS or your mother’s maiden name or your first pet. Clearly a novice! Enjoy your riches!
I feel rich already. How about the suit, Kate. Is that me your think?
LOL oh wow. He made it look so official but ruined it by putting his picture on the bottom. ha ha ha. I’m surprised he didn’t ask for some postage money to get it sent to you. ha.
Too bad there are crooks like that out there. Yep, someone may fall for it.
I put the picture at the bottom Sandy, That is the suit I’m going to buy, with my new money.
I am never surprised that some people fall for such crap, Ron. Greed is God, in the western world, after all.
P. S. Please send me a million, when you get your riches. I have two children in iron lungs, and my mother needs a head transplant.
Best wishes, Pete.
It’s all yours Pete!. As soon as I find a place for the two trunks, I’ll send the money to you. You and I can dress alike then!
🙂 🙂
I’m sorry to inform you that I’ve already responded to Mr. Powell and I expect to receive the Two Metal Trunk Boxes (I think the uppercase makes it more legitimate) shortly. I guess you’ll just have to respond sooner next time.
LOL, I guess it’s for the best, I really didn’t have room to store 2 boxes full of money. Thanks for helping out!
You may not be financially rich, but you are rich in humor. Seems to me spammers should hire someone to check their grammar and spelling.
Yes, the email grammar was funny for sure!
This is hilarious, Ron! I used to get mails from a Nigerian prince, but am sadly now off his list. I could have been a rich princess if I’d played my cards right!
Sorry, somehow I missed your comment. My notifications are so messed up. Maybe I can use some of that money after all, to get a better server? Thanks, and hope you see you again.
Such messages keep coming 🙂 Do people really believe them ?
Some people are really gullible, It’s a sad fact, but very true. Spammers, should be jailed, they are a waste of bandwidth. Thanks for visiting and commenting! I appreciate it.
Sounds legit to me! I enjoyed reading your hilarious perspective! I feel so bad for anyone who is in such frail state of mind that they would actually fall for this type of scam.
Yes, it is sad to know people out there like that. I have sister-in-law, that would forward those emails to me, so I could get the $10 off my Verizon account, if I sent it to 5 other people. Sad.
Omg! No one has received the money yet. I just got the email this morning. I might have room in my sheshed, or the mister’s mancave.
I need to clean out my closet Kay, never know when another offer will come along. I guess I could empty the other 3 trunks of money, into just one trunk and make more room.
Thanks for the comment, have a nice Friday night.
I have already replied to this rich person’s email … it is funny but can I try to think positively, maybe he wants to be friends ,, hahahha
Yes, Efrizal. It is always nice to keep an open mind, I love making friends, but I’m pretty sure this one was after some money. Besides, I just don’t have room for another trunk in my closet. 🙂
