Subject: OFFICIAL WARNING


DATE: 17/7/2009 ATTENTION: Fund Beneficiary. OFFICIAL WARNING FROM THE FBI FOREIGN REMITTANCE/TELEGRAPHIC DEPT.: It has been discovered that your contract/inheritance/winning FUND was about being transferred to an unknown account under your name. This attempt was perpetrated by someone who claims to be working for you, and that you have given him due authority to have the FUND moved to the new account. The Federal Bureau of Investigation (F.B.I.) waded in after being alerted by the supposed bank. We investigated and found that there is a possible money laundering activity in play. The FUND (US$100,000 dollars) was found to be deposited in Bank of America in your name pending your consent to have it transferred to the new account. It was further revealed that initial FUND transfer originated from Nigeria to England and now here in Bank of America in USA. These transfers did not follow due process in line with the international FUND transfer rules and regulation. Consequently, we suspect this be a terrorism funding, drug related fund deposit and/or money laundering. As stated above, the FUND has your name on it; and you must have it cleared of any connection with any of these illegal activities. Be informed that FAILURE to have this cleared out will attract a JAIL TERM. We will not hesitate to visit the full weight of the law upon you if you do not clear this fund. There is every indication that you are involved in this shady deal. Finally, you are expected to have the CLEARANCE DOCUMENT obtain from where the FUND originated from to have you and your fund cleared. Only then shall we release your FUND as clean money devoid of any illegality, and you will be free of any involvement. Contact me as soon as possible for any question and further clarification. Note that you have 72hrs to obtain this crucial Documentation. This has to be cleared! You are warned! Faithfully Yours Robert Mueller FBI Director Federal Bureau Of Investigation. FBI-Washington Field Offi ce 601 4th Street, NW Washington, DC 20535

I inherited them from my wife. She gets them, and one was really funny, so I responded to it, and now I get them, and mess around with the more creative ones like this guy. ;D ;)

Cheap entertainment.
