[SpamCop-List] Nigerian Scam getting more honest! Sort of. Uhhhhh, welll ...

[PopRivet]

HI,

I haven't had a Nigerian scam in a long time and since
this one's purportedly actually FROM Nigeria, something
I haven't seen in an even longer time, and it's being
"up front" and "honest" with me about the dealings, I
just had to share it here!  They're so "honest" it
makes me almost want to think about thinking about
considering the deal!  NOT!!

I have no requests or questions:  Just wanted to let
those of you not fortunate enough  to have seen this
get a gander!  At first I just glanced at it, then
something made me giggle, and THAT made me read it!
Get a load of the very last line!  Their use of
Grammar Is pretty Interesting too, As these things Go.
