"President Vieira was killed by the army as he tried to flee his house which was being attacked by a group of soldiers close to the chief of staff Tagme Na Waie, early this morning," military spokesman Zamora Induta told AFP news agency.

He accused Mr Vieira of being responsible for the death of the army chief of staff.

Quote:

Armed forces spokesman Samuel Fernandes told reporters at one station: "We are going to pursue the attackers and avenge ourselves".

In a statement on state radio following Mr Vieira's death, the military insisted no coup was in progress. The armed forces statement said the military would respect the constitutional order...

So that's clear then... Rolling Eyes

I wonder how this letter will formatted.

"Dearest One,

This letter may come as a surprise to you as I'm Tudam Tuphink the next of kin of President Vieira of Guinea Bissau. He was recently murdered by armed forces as he tried to flee his house which was attacked by a group of soldiers close the chief of staff Tagame Na Waie. He knew that my father had $7.5 MILLION USD hidden in a truck box for and swore that he'd kill him unless he gave him the money. He refused and gave me a piece of paper with the containing the bank account to retreive the money. Unfortunately having to go into hiding. A refugee such as myself cannot get the money out. Which is why I need your help. Become the next of kin and I will give you 10% of the money for helping me out. I just need the following information for you:

NAME
ADDRESS
PRIVATE TELEPHONE NUMBER/FAX
AGE
OCCUPATION
MARTIAL STATUS
BANK ACCOUNT NUMBER
SWIFT CODE

Remain Bless

Tudam Tuphink (Too Dumb to think)"

I know it's not supposed to be funny, but I honestly read that as Patrick Vieira. I knew he'd fallen out with Arsene, but that's taking things too far. Very Happy

Like my simulation scam letter above your post?

^^you're probably not far off the mark there. Very Happy

I know right. Maybe we should get lots of fake lads to send this out.

Posted: Mon Mar 02, 2009 5:17 pm

Can we head the lads off at the pass, and bomb out our own ridiculous format to them right away? With luck they'll pick it up and start using it. What would you include to tip off victims? Aliens? Outrageous amounts of money?

Bohingal: Go right ahead. Sounds like lots of fun! Surprised

Posted: Mon Mar 02, 2009 5:31 pm

Aliens are always fun. Laughing

Ceres: Exactly!

It certainly does sound like fun. Star Wars references might work.

Posted: Mon Mar 02, 2009 5:53 pm

Harvestmoon: It just keeps getting more and more hilarious. But there might be Star Wars fans who may become victims eh? No, pro'lly not.

Dearest One,

This letter may come as surprise to you as I'm Tudam Tuphink the next of kin of the late Presidente Vieira of Guinea Bissau. He was recently executed and mounted by armed forces as he tried to flee his house which was attacked by a group of soldiers close the chief of staff Tagame Noe Waie. Mr. Noe Waie is brutal sodomizer who took my father so dear.

He knew that my father had $7.5 MILLION USD hidden in a truck box for and swore that he'd kill him unless he gave him the money. How cliche.

He refused and gave me a piece of paper with the containing the bank account to retreive the money. Unfortunately having to go into hiding. A refugee such as myself cannot get the money out. Which is why I need your help. Become the next of kin and I will give you 10% of the money for helping me out. I just need the following information for you:

How's that? Lemme know and I'll blast thousands of them out there.

Sir scam a lot: Blast away! That's perfect!

Posted: Tue Mar 03, 2009 12:25 pm

Beautiful, that's the kind of thing I had in mind but couldn't possibly execute.

Posted: Tue Mar 03, 2009 12:54 pm

Done, let's see how many reuse it. Laughing

Damn SSA, you're a big lad now. We'll have to start baiting you! Wink

Posted: Tue Mar 03, 2009 5:38 pm

I've sent out forms to lads before & had them re-used on me when I rebaited them from a different character. So I just sent this out to a bunch:

Quote:

Greetings in the name of the holy and almighty,

Please excuse me for contacting you in this manner. Allow me to introduce myself. I am Mr Reginald Gomer, confidante and personal assistant to the late President Viera of Guinea Bissau.

As you will be no doubt aware the president was asssasinated shortly ago by members of the army in association with the Judean Peoples Front. With luck I was out of the country when this happened. I spoke to the president just moments before his killings. He expressed great remorse for the bad things he had done to his country as he believed himself to be above everything, even God. His last words to me were 'I know now that I am not the messiah, I am just a very naughty president'. I truly believe he was remorseful for all his guilt.

Some time ago the president lodged the sum of $50,000,000 US in the Camelot bank of Guinea. His wish was that this be used for great and charitable works in his country. I said that I would go to the bank to talk to them and set up a hospital fund. The president however did not trust the bank and foreswore me to go to Camelot, as it was a silly place.

I am therefore in need of assistance from you. You will need to help me get the funds out of the bank as an overseas investor. I will attend to the charitable causes of the late president and in return you will retain 20% of the total funds.

I do hope that we can work together in this. There is much suffering here and the money will build many schools and hospitals for little children.

Wonder if they'll pick it up? Twisted Evil

I look forward to getting one of these back from a lad, why should they have to do all the work?
