I know this message may come to you as a surprise but please treat it for the urgency expected by it. I'm Mrs Linda Raymond the junior sister to CAPTAIN FODAY SANKOH the leader of the Revolutionary United Front of Sierra Leone (RUF) who was arrested by the United Nations force in Sierra Leone on May 7th 2000 for his leading role in the rebel war in Sierra Leone. I am 24 years old.

At the arrest of my Senior brother, he instructed me
to take possession of documents covering a deposit of
USD30,000,000 {THIRTY MILLION UNITED STATE DOLLAR. he
made with a security company in London(as the
closest person to him in the family) because his wife
and children ran away when the way became serious. I
went to his house where I found the document covering
the deposit of the US $30,000,000 million (THIRTY
MILLION UNITED STATE DOLLAR in his room.

This is part of the money he made from the sale of
Diamond and Gold which he was controlling the mining
and sales during his leadership of the rebel group
before his arrest.

The box was deposited as the
property of a foreign investor running from
Sierra-Leone because of the civil war with my brother
as the custodian /depositor while the beneficiary will
be introduced in due course.

The consignment/box had been in the security company
since then pending my getting a good arrangement of
what to do with the money as my brother asked me to
take care of it as he did not know the possibility
/when he may gain his freedom and he had been there
without his freedom in sight.

Note that the Security Courier was not told the real
content of the box which was declared Family Valuable
and they believe it to be precious stones.

With the recent success of the search party organised
by the United Nations and our country government in
finding the money of my brother in some countries
(both in his name and the name of our family members)
I am in urgent need to change the covering documents
of the deposit to a foreigners name and a friend gave
me your recommendation.

I now need your assistance as the foreign investor in
securing this money to your country and making viable
investment.. as I have decided to invest this money in
your country. I will give you 20% of the
$30,000,000million if you help me to secure this money
and invest it viably in your country.

Please if you are willing to help me, contact me
through the above addresses
for us to start the arrangements towards the movement
of the money to transfer to your country.

Thanks for anticipated co-operation. Awaiting your
urgent reply.

Best Regards
Linda Raymond

There is only one little problem.... Dear Jean seems to think that her pictures:

are supposed to make me lose my mind and reply immediately to her identity theft or advanced fee scam!

In fact, JEAN is so illusionary that she actually thinks I am going to be so dazzled by her photos as to believe that I actually have been in communication with her. (This seems to be the new theme these days, send you an email like you are old buddies who have some pre-existing relationship or agreement.)

Unfortunately for poor Jean....

1. I am not some desperate bozo sitting in front of a computer screen waiting to be ripped off by the first half Naked Nigerian to hit me up.

2. Jean ain't all that hot in the first place.

So lesson to Mugus.... 1. Find someone hotter. 2. Send your emails to someone who is NOT a Mugu hater.
3. Piss off!
