Lady Mary Jones Thinks I'm Stupid

I received this very funny email from Lady Mary Jones. Well, I guess she thought I was an actual "Lady" and wanted to scam some money from me. But Gmail is a smart motherplucker, and knew that Lady Mary's scam email, was in fact SPAM, and that's where it was delivered. Only to be flushed out of my email in one click.Spam Mail can be so funny sometimes, and since I was bored, I decided to read the 'interesting' ones for some giggles.

"Lady Mary Jones maryjones@yahoo.co.uk

Hello!

I have been waiting for you since to contact me for your Confirm able Bank Draft of $800.000.00 United States Dollars, but I did not hear from you since that time. Then I went and deposited the Draft with FEDEX EXPRESS DELIVERY, West Africa, I travelled out of the country for a Months Course and I will not come back till end of January. What you have to do now is to contact the FEDEX EXPRESS DELIVERY as soon as possible to know when they will deliver your package to you because of the expiring date. For your information,I have paid for the delivering Charges, Insurance premium and Clearance Certificate Fee of the Cheque showing that it is not a Drug Money or meant to sponsor Terrorist attack in your Country. Again, I would have paid for the security keeping fee but they said no because they don't know when you will contact them and in case of demurrage.You have to contact the FEDEX EXPRESS INTERNATIONAL with the following information

First name:
Last Name:
Telephone/Fax number:
Nationality:
Age:
Occupation:
address:

CLAIMS AGENT: MR Terry Smith
Email
Address:fedex007@live.com
Telephone:+2348054998544

there and know when it will get to your address. Let me repeat again, try to contact them as soon as you receive this mail to avoid any further delay and remember to pay them their Security Keeping fee of $250.00 US Dollars for their immediate action.

You should also let me know through email as soon as you receive your Draft.

Yours Faithfully,

Mrs.mary jones "


Tsk, tsk, Lady Mary. You could have come up with a better story than that! You're a freakin' lady for that matter. Use your women's intuition. I could come up with 100 better scams. But I don't kiss and tell.. *wink*

I believe this is called phishing! I get so many specially from South Africa! I don't know if there is anyone who would fall for that! But if there is, that person should not be using the internet at all!

LOL!!! If these "lotteries" were real, and I actually responded to them, I would be a trillionaire by now. It's actually a lottery for the scammers, because they are waiting to see if they "win" by someone actually responding and giving out all their vital information so they can have their identity stolen!! So sad!!

Hahaha I'm talking to her on Yahoo messenger... She wants me to give her £1000 to clear some account or something. She's told me in return she will give me 40% of the $13m she's owed by a Nigerian petroleum company and then she said that when thats blown over, me and her can be together hahaha!

Her yahoo username is mjpink8 for anyone who may have a similar occurrence.
