Looks like a standard begging letter to me, they do crop up from time to time. They're usually not really malicious at all (Though they've been known to start off as begging letters then move on to scamming later in the "relationship"). Genuine internet beggars / green card seekers do exist though.

There's plenty of bigger fish to fry in my opinion.

EDIT: Edited to add, the world is a spooky place. I'm travelling through Ataturk airport this Saturday. Confused

Did this letter also come with two photo's attached. I got a similar one.

Yes actually, I jsut took another look at it, and amusingly enough it came with 4 pictures, of what looks to be a young lad in a expensive business suit and power tie, and one of him in this get up standing next to what I'm pretty sure is a hummer!

(I'll post them if anyone's interested)

Funny how someone with those kind of resources can;t spell to save their life and desperately needs cash for a plane ticket and any kind of work Laughing

He sent one pic to me where he's standing on a street. Looks like NY plates on the cars and I'm 99% sure there's a WaMu bank on the corner.

He wants to sex me give me orgazm all nights.....

He arrived in my catcher box today too.
I say bait him. If you're worried about the chance that he's only an internet beggar and not a genuine scammer, send him an ASEM.
I'll bet you he bites.
