Stupid Punts!

Compliments of the Season!

What a bizarre way to start a letter. Too early for Christmas, and too late for Ascot; methinks it is a scam!!!!

The writer claims that her father, a diamond dealer (that should immediately alert you to a scam), was poisoned by his business associates. Now that should really warn you that something "dodgy" is afoot here.

He left $13M, and she wants me to help transfer the money etc etc.

I will, so she says, get blessed by God if I help her. Needless to say, 20% of $13M may also act as some form of inducement.

However, don't be deceived; this is a scam, there is no money.

I am afraid that we will all have to continue working for a living.
