Malcolm Reynolds versus the "Funds Ambassador US to Benin Republic" - it didn’t last long, and you’ll see why at the end.
It’s another example of a Lad not reading replies.

My messages are in italics.

Re: The Funds Ambassador US to Benin Republic has come to intervene in you Funds
OFFICE THE U.S AMBASSADOR TO BENIN REPUBLIC
NO.2, ROUTE DE L'AEROPORT, COTONOU, BENIN
Attention Dear;
Without mincing words, Iam convinced 100% that you have had bitter experience with various 'scam claiming to be high government officials and thereby defrauding you of your 'hard-earned money'. The activities of these scam has changed your perspective about conducting business on the internet, and you now believed there is no genuine business that can be conducted on the internet. Well, I am an American and the internet was created by Americans for the purpose of creating awareness for your products/services and conducting genuine business with ease. I am fully committed to deliver the "diplomatic consignment" to you in the United States in order to differentiate myself from the many Benin Republic you have dealt with.
I am a full citizen of the United States, but I was on a Foreign Mission here in Benin as a US Ambassador. Hence, I am making every effort to ensure that no citizen of the United States is cheated by Benin Republic .
Therefore, I need your utmost support and understanding to actualize this dream.I also want you to understand that I do trust you and I expect you to show me the same trust and respect in return since trust is a 2-way street. On the other hand, trust is a relationship of reliance. Trust also means being able to predict what other people will do and what situations will occur.
Trust is both an emotional and logical act. Emotionally, it is where you expose your vulnerabilities to people, but believing they will not take advantage of your openness. Logically, it is where you have assessed the probabilities of gain and loss, calculating expected utility based on hard performance data, and concluded that the person in question will behave in a predictable manner. In practice, trust is a bit of both. I trust you because I have experienced your trustworthiness by merely believing in what I have said, even when you have not seen me, and because I have faith in human nature.
Frankly speaking, I understand that anyone in your shoes will feel betrayed, but I still want you to show me your trust by giving me the benefit of doubt on this delivery arrangement. My identity and personality is verifiable, and I promise to deliver the consignment to you in the United States
without any hitch. Please do not allow this mission to die off because of $183, I meant so well for you and I believe you will appreciate me more when you have finally received your partial payment of $3.700,000,00 US Dollars upon my arrival with the package in United States . I will use my
position and personality to deposit the $3.700,000,00 USD into your bank account in the United States without questioning from the financial monitoring authorities, since all documentations proving the legitimacy of the funds has been processed.
Please don't see me as one of the numerous dubious Benin republic you have dealt with in the past. I am a different person entirely and I come from a different continent. I have the American spirit in me and I hate cheaters. I promise to always uphold the national unity of the United State. Please

Well my brother, I understood what you explain to me but I don’t how I could start helping you because if as you have part out of the demanding fee then I can see where to start helping you.
But there is no problem; I will try to see if I can raise it. Once I raise the fee I will pay it for you ok.
Thanks and have a nice day.

I told you that I don't want and don't need your help. You seem to be a poor man; maybe you need my help.
Malcolm Reynolds

It seems that calling a Lad a "poor man" is a sure-fire way to insult him; and so I never heard from him again.
