Stupid Punts!

Mohammed wrote to me today, how nice!

He claims to be the son of the late President of Nigeria, hardly a ringing endorsement of honesty.

This chappy then goes on to call me "dear friend", even though we have never met.

He claims to have a box containing $20M, these people are very fond of keeping their valuables in boxes.

He wants me to help him get it out of the country, and offers me 30%; but 30% of nothing is of course, nothing!

He asks that I contact his lawyer, as he is being "burged"; whatever that means.

To repeat the well worn mantra, this is a con don't fall for it.
