Smile I'm Gonna Get Rich

I just received the following email (very confidentially), and I'm about to come into $22 million USD. Yes, I know about the Nigerian scams, but this isn't from Nigeria; it's from China, so it's got to be legit, right?

Anyway, when I collect, I intend to share my bounty with my friends here on the forum. Man, I can't wait to go to ScubaToys soon. Even if I don't have the money in hand yet, I'm sure Joe will advance me a line of credit.

What to buy...what to buy...

=======================================
Dear Friend,

Let me start by introducing myself. I am Mr. Joseph Poon, Managing
Director and Deputy Chief Executive of the Hang Seng Bank Ltd. I have
a Secured business suggestion for you., Before the U.S and Iraqi war
our client Mr.Fayez Abdulaziz Mohammed who was a business merchant and
a contractor with the Iraqi Government but a citizen of SAUDI
ARABIA,Made a numbered fixed deposit for 24 calendar months(2Years),
with a value of Twenty Two million Four Hundred Thousand United State
Dollars only in my branch. Upon maturity several notices was sent to
him, even during the war which began in 2003. Again after the war
another notification was sent and still no response came from him. We
later find out that Mr.Fayez Abdulaziz Mohammed along with his wife
and only daughter had been killed during the war in a bomb blast that
hit His Resident. After further investigation it was also discovered
that Mr.Fayez Abdulaziz Mohammed did not declare any next of kin in
his official papers including t
he paper work of his bank deposit. And he also confided in me the last
time he was at my office that no one except me knew of his deposit in
my bank. So, Twenty Two million Four Hundred Thousand United State
Dollars is still lying in my bank and no one will ever come forward to
claim it. What bothers me most is that according to the laws of my
country at the expiration 3 years and six month the funds will revert
to the ownership of the Hong Kong Government if nobody applies to
claim the funds. Against this backdrop, my suggestion to you is that I
will like you as a foreigner to stand as the next of kin to Mr.Fayez
Abdulaziz Mohammed so that you will be able to receive his funds.

WHAT IS TO BE DONE:

I want you to know that I have had everything planned out so that we
shall come out successful. I have an attorney that will prepare the
necessary document that will back you up as the next of kin to
Mr.Fayez Abdulaziz Mohammed,all that is required from you at this
stage is for you to provide me with your Full Names and Address so
that the attorney can commence his job. After you have been made the
next of kin, the attorney will also fill in for claims on your behalf
and secure the necessary approval and letter of probate in your favour
for the move of the funds to an account that will be provided by
you.There is no risk involved at all in this matter, as we are going
adopt a legalized method and the attorney will prepare all the
necessary documents. Please endeavor to observe utmost discretion in
all matters concerning this issue.Should you be interested please send
me your

1,Full names,
2,Private phone number,
3,Current residential address.

And I will prefer you reach me on my private email address below;

(joseph818hkpoon@yahoo.co.jp)

And finally after that I shall provide you with more details of this
operation. I want to know if you are willing to follow up this
business seriously before I can give you more details about this
transaction,I shall be waiting for your response and assurance.Your
earliest response to this letter will be appreciated.

Kind Regards,
Joseph Poon

I don't think you were very discrete Rick. You probably blew it.

Isn't it amazing how a highly powerful bank director and chief executive uses a plain old Yahoo e-mail address like the rest of us peons???

God is getting in on the action.

I got this one toady ad a matter of fact. What do you all think, should I go for it??

El Bethel Church
51 Cocody Crescents.
Cote D Ivoire.

Good day! I am Helen Saka formerly a medical student of the university of Abidjan, Cote d Ivoire. till my parents and my only brother where killed by on an Air crash. Since then I have been with my uncles but they have made thing to be more difficult for me because of their eyes on my late fathers properties.

Before the death of my father, he has $4.5 m USD (four million, five hundred thousand dollars.) in a fixed deposit domiciliary account with a bank in Côte d Ivoire that I am the next of kin.
I humbly need your assistance to help get this money transferred to your account, to serve as my guardian and to make an arrangement for me to come over after the fund is transferred, also to look for a good venture where the money will be invested.

If you are willing to help me kindly get back to me. I am waiting for your urgent and positive response. Please do keep this to your self; I plead with you not to disclose it to anybody till after the transfer and i am in your country. I am willing to offer you 20% of the total sum as compensation of your effort and 5% for any other expenses you made after a successful transfer.
Thank you and God bless
Helen.

I love his name. Poon. Brilliant...

I knew a guy in high school that we called Mr. Poon. But that was for an entirely different reason.

Yes. He was handsome. Pretty Ricky was what we called him...
