You pathetic, pusillanimous pauper. Can't come up with a measly $190 for the certain vast wealth in Your ATM card. Has Benin displaced Nigeria as the SPAM capital? :max:

They are trolling for credulous/confused seniors to fleece.

In this environment, a forum replete with coders and computer nerds, such things are easily spotted. These lures hope to catch well-off, unaware, mentally declining Fox friends, and relieve them of some of their retirement funds.

I like the "contact Mrs. Monica Driza [b]true[/b] her Email address." Not to mention it being gmail. And the payment by Western Union or "money gram" (presumably Moneygram).

Nothing suspicious there...

[QUOTE=Chuck;501014]Great. How do I claim it?[/QUOTE]
We can only wish. This one was pretty bare of details. None of the usual, "send us your account numbers, bank codes, and a bunch of cash. We promise to make it up to you."
Then too, this sounds like another "Africa is a country" load of bull.

You don't want to miss out, better send money to both and get the $5.8m from real one and lose a small amount to the fake one. Nothing could possibly go wrong.
