I am so lucky

#1 Post by Rexer25 » Tue Jun 17, 2008 10:24 am

The following is the complete text of an email I received this morning:

microsoftagent.87@googlemail.com get back to us with your personal details.
Your email has won £ 1,000,000:00 Pounds.

Wooo-hooo!! This has to be legitimate, right? There is no Nigerian bank, or supposed inheritance, or requests for bank account information, so I'm in the money! I especially like the : to denote cents.

I guess what I really like most is that the spybots may stumble upon this address, and spam it to death.
Enough already. It's my fault! Get over it!

That'll be $10, please.

That's why I enjoy posting the notes.

No, I'm sure that's the forged return address. You got it right the first time.

FWEET! Foul!

When I do that, I get chewed out by both BobJuch and Marley! When Rexer does it, BobJuch helps him!

15-yard penalty for a personal foul, plus another 15 for egregious!

I'd call my response a mild rebuke.
