If you get a letter or e-mail similar to the pathetic nonsense of the badly spelt e-mails below ,(the comments in italics are mine) you are being conned, 100% guaranteed..I don't employ 'consultants',even if I did,they'd have to be a lot more intelligent and use better grammar than the authors of this childish drivel.If you get similar mail to this jibberish please send it to the senders ISP,complete with headers and ask that account is closed.You might also like to reply to the con man who sent it to you in terms appropriate to someone who you now know is simply trying to trick you out of your hard earned cash and insult your inelligence,while you're at it ask them what the weathers like in Nigeria.I always report the authors of rubbish like this to their ISP's and permanently block all e-mails from those providers who don't take immediate action to close such accounts.
1st e-mail.

As regards my mail to you,I own a company in the England which is into export of raw materials to other companies especially in America.( incorrect my little con man,at least do me the courtesy of studying my web site) We normally encounter problems when been paid because it takes a while for American cheques to clear here in the England so this has prompted me to search for a payment agent in America who would stand on behalf of my company. Presently,we are been owed up to $180,000 (I wish I was) and the company in question has agreed to begin installmental (grammar and spelling,did you go to night school too?) payment.If you are willing to assist,you would be paid 10% of the total sum you collect on behalf of my company in any transaction that is passed through you to our company. All you have to do is send me your full name,detailed mailing address,tell and fax numbers.Once you have done this,I would instruct the company to send the cheque to you which you would deposit into your account.When the cheque clears you would then pay the balance (after you have deducted your fee )into an account which I shall provide for you. Note: that the info you shall provide shall be subject to final approval because I am sk(c)eptical of the high rate of internet fraud going on these days.(this e-mail being a very good example)Endeavour to indicate your reference number as above in all of your correspondence with us.

And for those sad peopls who've been approached via a chat room,etc and been sent a photo of some old slapper claiming to be a consultant or my daughter etc,etc and who think they are on to a good thing.Sorry,but you are being taken for a ride,but a very different from the one you were hoping to go on with your new "friend".If you've sent your photograph,a copy of your driving licence or other personal details to "Mary Krings","Doris Williams","Cassandra"or any other of the fictional people at my companies address I've destroyed them.You were lucky,THIS TIME.
