Wouldn’t there be a way to withdraw everything they put in and close the account?

amazing how if you put something in print how gullible these people are.
she is probably an obama supporter too.
To: JoeProBono
If she really believed that $100 was going to net her $20.5 million, then she deserves to get taken.
That is not innocence or naivete - that is sheer greed blinding one's senses.
Lesson learned.

Her name is “Janella” and Sweet Home Oregon doesn’t have a large African American population. If it helps any I saw her picture and she IS Blond. ;>)

Not really. With the Nigerian scam, if you don’t get fooled, you don’t get harmed. With the Kenyan scam, we Freepers weren’t fooled, but we’re still gonna’ get screwed.
