Usually at least the inital contact letter is written in decent English. This one cracked me up. "I found it uneasy to survive myself..." Laughing

I'll have to think up a reply with some good further de-education in the English language.

Quote:

Dear Friend,
My name is Mrs. M4ry McC4rthy am 75yrs old of age, I stay in New York
City, USA.I am a good merchant, I have several industrial companies
and good share in various banks in the world. I spend all my life on investment and corporate business. all the way i lost my husband and
two beautiful kids in fatal accident that occur in November 5th 2003.

I am a very greedy woman with all cost i don't know much and care about
People, since when I have an experience of my it difficult to sleep
and give rest. later in the year 2004 Febuary i was sent a letter of
Medical check up, as my personal Doctor testify that i have a lung
Cancer, which can easily take off my life soon. I found it uneasy to survive myself, because a lot of investment cannot be run and manage by me again.

I quickly call up a pastor/prophet to give me positive thinking on this solution, as my adviser. He minister to me to share my properties, wealth, to motherless baby/orphanage homes/people that
need money for survivor both student that need money/ business woman and man for their investment and for future rising. So i am writing this letter to people who really need help from me both students in college, to contact me urgently.

so that i can make available preparation on that. especially women of
the day, who are divorced by their husband, why they cannot survive
the mist of feeding their self.

Please contact me and stop weeping. Probably let me now what you really
need the money for, and if you can still help me to distribute money to nearest orphanages homes near your town. now am so much with God, am now born again. May you be blessed, as you reach me.

I will give more information to you as i await your response immediately.

Best Regards
Mrs. M4ry McC4rthy

Go from English to French, then German then back to English, that will mangle it sufficiently fot your purpose, you still want it reasonably understandable.

Have fun, don't do more work than the lad. He's using a script, so it'll be a while yet to get him frustrated.

Sometimes it is more "fun" than work. Often my replies do take me more time than the scammer took in sending his script -- but that's not necessarily "work" for me, but "fun." Very Happy

I can see how you would be weeping after reading that piss poor script. Weeping with laughter that is. It looks a bit like a subtle baiter modified script to me.

What's with
The extraneous
Line breaks?

The above reads like it should be some (bad) form of poem! Laughing

So I asked which was it, a pastor or a prophet. Seems it was a pastor, so now I'm going to have to know whether it was a right-handed pastor or a left-handed pastor. Laughing
