Машины из США для автодилеров и салонов
Apart from being the luckiest being on the planet - you would not believe how many e-mails I get from Mbungo Gumbo (the Head of the some Nigerian mega money company) who wants to give me Ј30,000,000 for being trustworthy - I also get oodles of e-mails from unknown senders, the subject line reading:
Маши'ы из США д'я авт'ди'ер'в и са''''в
Anybody have any idea what the h**l they are?? If you send me the answer on the back of a signed blank cheque I'll split the Ј30,000,000 with you (half each)....or just put the answer on here.!

I get those too. I think it's Korean or Chinese and your PC doesn't have the relevant character set installed.
Need a better PC so you can read your spam.

I thought it was an Icelandic song title!
Yes - these African beggars are a bit of a pain. But at least their spam is more amusingly pathetic than those from Viagra-peddlers, willy-extenders, purveyors of things to make fat Americans weigh less than 250 lb, boring mortgage dealers and the like.....

Keygrip,
I get about 8-10 of these a day on average, there seem to be alot of governments going under at the moment with lots of money they need me to sort out for them!
They are known as 419 Scams and the Met Police have a specific fraud unit set up dealing with them as they are getting very common. They are (usually) Nigerian based scams with the phone/fax number to reply to in Amsterdam. The usual route is that once you reply you invited to a biz meeting over there where suddenly to get your money you have to pay several 'adminstration' fees or bribes to official - your new friends would love to help but dont forget that all their money is impounded at the moment until you have helped them...
Once they think they have as much as they can get out of you they dissappear into the ether with all your cash...
I am sure that someoone on here once posted a link to a guy who decided to wind one of these guys up to the point where he even sussed out a webcam in Amsterdam and got the guy to meet him there......whilst he was sat at home in front of PC laughing his t1ts off at he guy
Anyway would love to type more but unfortunately I have to go claim all this money which I reckon at the moment is running at twice the third world national deficit!!!
