    "From The Desk Of Mr. William Mills..."

    I got this email today, what should I do? Should I send him money (this is really an incredible offer, I'd be a fool to pass it up), or a couple of my comps so he'll quit bugging me?
    DEAR FRIEND,

    MY NAME IS MR.WILLIAM MILLS; I AM THE REGIONAL MANAGER OF A BANK, TAKORADI
    BRANCH IN THE WESTERN REGION OF GHANA. I GOT YOUR INFORMATION ON A RECENT
    BANK CONFERENCE WITH OTHER WEST AFRICAN COUNTRIES HELD IN LOME THE CAPITAL
    CITY OF TOGO IN WEST AFRICA.

    I WRITE YOU THIS PROPOSAL IN GOOD FAITH, I AM 56 YEAR OLD MARRIED WITH TWO
    LOVELY KIDS. I HAVE PACKAGED A FINANCIAL TRANSACTION THAT WILL BENEFIT YOU
    AND I,AS THE REGIONAL MANAGER OF A BANK IT IS MY DUTY TO SEND IN A
    FINANCIAL REPORT TO MY HEAD OFFICE IN THE CAPITAL CITY ACCRA AT THE END OF
    EACH BUSINESS YEAR.

    ON THE COURSE OF THE LAST YEAR 2012 FINANCIAL BUSINESS REPORT, I
    DISCOVERED THAT MY BRANCH IN WHICH I AM THE MANAGER MADE TEN MILLION SIX
    HUNDRED AND EIGHTY THOUSAND US DOLLARS($10,680,000.00) WHICH MY HEAD OFFICE
    ARE NOT AWARE OF AND WILL NEVER BE AWARE OF.

    I HAVE PLACED THIS FUNDS ON WHAT WE CALL ESCROW CALL ACCOUNT WITH NO
    BENEFICIARY. AS AN OFFICER OF THIS BANK I CANNOT BE DIRECTLY CONNECTED TO
    THIS MONEY, SO MY AIM OF CONTACTING YOU IS TO ASSIST ME RECEIVE THIS MONEY
    IN YOUR BANK ACCOUNT AND GET 30% OF THE TOTAL AS COMMISSION.

    THERE ARE PRACTICALLY NO RISK INVOLVED, IT WILL BE A BANK TO BANK
    TRANSFER, AND ALL I NEED FROM YOU IS TO STAND CLAIM AS THE ORIGINAL
    DEPOSITOR OF THESE FUNDS WHO MADE THE DEPOSIT WITH MY BRANCH SO THAT MY
    HEAD OFFICE CAN ORDER THE TRANSFER TO YOUR DESIGNATED BANK ACCOUNT. IF YOU
    ACCEPT TO WORK WITH ME I WILL APPRECIATE IT VERY MUCH. WRITE ME IF YOU
    THINK WE CAN WORK TOGETHER
    SO THAT WE CAN GO OVER THE DETAILS.

    THANKS YOU IN ADVANCE AND MAY GOD BLESS
    YOU AND YOUR FAMILY.
    YOURS TRULY,
    MR. WILLIAM MILLS.

    So his bank (of which he is the Regional Manager, just in case you missed it) made $10 million that the head office will never know about, and he decides to keep it? Yeah, sounds like an upstanding guy to me, you should trust him.

    Uh. The part that made me suspicious was the "two lovely kids". No way that happens.

    There was a 'Flight of the Conchords' episode where the band's manager, Murry, tells them he sent money to some guy in Africa. The funny part was that, near the end of the episode, he actually got a pile of money from the guy.
    I call my bathroom Jim instead of John so I can tell people that I go to the Jim first thing every morning.

    If you say the word 'gullible' very slowly it sounds just like oranges.
