And I never open them either. This time, actually, I just goofed - I was trying to do a *report spam* on it, and hit the email at the wrong time, and opened it by accident. But I was pretty sure the damage wasn't via virus or such; even the email heading was clearly a 419. They usually save the damage for the scam, rather than infection. <BR/><BR/>morris, I'm glad to hear you have that same sense of humor about these guys!<BR/><BR/>And thank you, grannyJ! Of course I'd like to take credit for that fine letter, but we'll have to leave that for the author. I sure do feel honored for getting such a fine one, though.<BR/><BR/>I had a lot of fun doing recoveries. There's nothing like a true emergency to allow for innovation. Once some time has passed and it's morphed into beaurocracy, it's much harder. An older, seasoned portfolio can get pretty boring.khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06430423256832961746noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11967806.post-1170175877563790462007-01-30T11:51:00.000-05:002007-01-30T11:51:00.000-05:00Yours is the best Nigerian scam post I've read, k ...Yours is the best Nigerian scam post I've read, k -- I also admire your idea for recovering money lost in bank closings.
