Who would have thought that Mueller was actually functionally illiterate?

Heh.

Poor baby.

Being stupid should be painful. Especially after so many years of people being warned about the Nigerian Scam emails.

Bet you won’t fall for that particular scam again, dumb@$$!

This is what I Do......

I actually reply back to them. I tell them I will split
any monies involved with them on one condition:

They have to provide me with a CERTIFIED copy of Obama’s sealed records in Kenya including his birth certificate.

I have been angry at my parents for years. Apparently I have a rich relative in Nigeria who is a doctor, general, high ranking official, and/or scientist and I am his closest relative. My parents never mentioned him and now he’s dead from a plane crash.

Mary Winkler from Selmer, Tennessee, put a 12 gage to her husband as he lay sleeping and let it fly then unplugged the phone as she left. He had caught her losing money in a Nigerian Scam. She got off because the liberal Democrats of McNairy County, Tennessee, bought the lawyer's defense that she was an abused wife even though there was no evidence to the accusation.

What a tragedy.

Maybe there’s money in it for you if you go claim the body...

From Snopes. The FBI is offering ATM cards to help victims recover money from Nigerian scams.

How could anybody still fall for this?

Does this not remind everyone of the recent political scam bought by half of the voting public. Where the moon was being promised as hope and change. If it seems too good to be true, it isn’t. PT Barnum was not stupid but he sure knew some people that were.

OMFG. This guy must be the only person on Earth who’s never heard of the 419 scams!

What, is he the *only* 22-year-old in North America who doesn’t use the Internet?

Sorry lowbridge, I realized too late that the firewall at work blocked them.

It’s a Fr classic.

Thanks.
