    Why?

    Why........... am I constantly getting these emails?Nonstop for the last month
    Good day ,

    This message might meet you in utmost surprise however
    it's just my urgent need for a reliable foreign
    partner that made me contact you for this transaction.


    I am a banker by profession from Burkina Faso and
    currently holding the post of Accounts and Auditing
    Manager in our bank .
    I have the opportunity of transferring 7.8 million USD
    abandoned by a deceased customer who died along with
    his wife in a sucide bomb attack while on holidays in
    Egypt.

    Hence, I am inviting you for a business deal where
    this money can be shared between us 60/40 if you agree
    to my business proposal. If you are interested in
    being part of this transaction , kindly reach on my
    private and confidential email address :
    omar44hassan@yahoo.co.uk

    Eagerly waiting for your response may god bless you.
    OMAR HASSAN

    Oh I get those all the time... pretty much all you can do is change your e-mail or delete them as they come.

    Dude, that sounds like a pretty good opportunity. I'd jump on it before it's too late.

    Gmail filters that out, why not give it a shot?

    Gmail's spam filters are the shit... they're partially built by folks tagging stuff as spam. Talk about dynamic. I've heard of folks popping all of their other accounts with gmail to use gmail as the central mail client to filter stuff.

    I had a client who was an older guy that was convinced the Nigerians had come to him for a job because he had a reputation for getting things done. After 2 years and $150,000 in payments he had made (ruining him financially) he was certain that he had $26.5 MM in an account in Nassau that he only had to come up with $10,000 more to pay the "UN wire service fees" to get wired to his account in Utah. I tried several times to explain to him what had happened but he was in too deep.

    20/20 or one of those shows actually got a guy to come to new york for his money, then busted him (figuratively speaking) on camera.

    Because it's a good deal and I think you should keep rereading it until you say no to me again.
