I just thought I'd make the announcement here, first, on FreeRepublic so all my fellow Freepers can be envious. Just a few minor details to work out and I'll be off to Tahiti. Ahhh, I can't wait...
Here's the e-mail that I just received:

Dang. You're hired.
You forgot to mention that payment will be made in Nigerian currency!
How wonderful for you. Now you can easilly satisfy that nice Nigerian banker that you have the wherewithall to satisfy his concerns, and take advantage of the generous commision he offers to a qualified, trustworthy, discrete individual with the imagination and solid financial standing required to assist in the retrieval of that fabulous unclaimed fortune he's holding. Oh, you're so lucky.
Why stop at the SS number?--give them your bank account # too for a direct deposit.
I won too!!!
Of course, I debated how I could possibly win a lottery I hadn't entered, but the email assured me the winning ticket was linked to my email address.
But I put off claming it, and now the deadline has passed.
I guess you are reaping the rewards of my procrastination.
And right in time for the FReppathon! I think you should donate at least 10%.
Enjoy Tahiti!!
All you have to do is give them the name of your bank and your account number so the money transfer can take place---the transfer of your money into their account that is.
I just put one on order through www.bigfishinboats.com! They say it will be gassed up and ready to go in 5 to 7 business days. Yep, any day now, my troubles will be all over...
"You wouldn't tell on me, would you? I'll make it worth your while..."
Ironically, my confidentiality is on sale this week. For $1000 I'll keep my yap shut.
FReepmail me for instructions.
Did you see that article about the guy who tricked the scammers into posting pictures of themselves with a pair of panties on their head and holding a sign that said, Freepers rule, DUers drool, I'm a Duer?
Did you read the part where it says winners need to report to their offices in Amsterdam by Noon, July 2?
Wow Sam did you rain on that Freeper's parade or what.
And don't forget your drivers license and major credit card(s) so that they can verify you're good for the 'processing fee'.
Just book a flight to Nigeria to pick up your money.
Now you can do that home page you always wanted.
I did see that. That was Freeper Lowbridge's little extra-curricular activity. Quite funny.
I figured I'd post this to see if anyone wanted to play some similar games with this e-mail.
