My Wife Won the Italian Lottery!
She got an email at work from Mrs. Joan Pablo, said they picked her numbers, and she won!!!!
Amount of winnings: 941,950.58(EUR)/US$ 1,327,961.93
All she has to do is give more information in a confirming email, and we (assume me?, could be her only?, most likely both of us!!!!) will not have to worry about healthcare, taxes, etc. anymore as we will officially be %$%^&*()$#@!@%. (I can say it in Italian, but not spell it), You know what I am saying!
I love Mondays

Three Words For You....
Advanced Fee Fraud!
This is similar to the stuff that comes out of Lagos Nigeria half the time. Have a good laugh out of it, then treat it accordingly

Your wife did not win.
I did.
I got the email before her, and quickly sent my data.
So, there.

Toby: Didn't you lose a lot of money on that other investment, the one from the email?
Michael: You know what, Toby? When the son of the deposed king of Nigeria emails you directly, asking for help, you help! His father ran the freaking country, okay? ...Alright, so, raise your hand if you wanna get rich.

Make sure you immediately send them your bank account number, PIN, social security number, eBay user account, and PayPal password. Don't worry, though- it's just to verify you are the person who actually won, and to expedite the deposit of the funds into your account!

I sent a reply that the US Army would send me anywhere in the world for R&R. I asked for the address so my ARMY friends and I could come and pick up my winnings and then promptly spend it in there wonderful country. All I got back was NOTHING!!
