Benin Republic scam spam email

I received this email today and replied. It’s been a while since I baited one of these douchebags. I wonder if he’ll reply, perhaps if I showed more eagerness to get involved he will. He basically wants me to pay $95 and he will give me the $8 Million that I am not entitled to.

I will follow up with an email after a few days… Also, the email was sent to undisclosed-recipients so it must have been a BCC batch job. This is funny after watching MSNBC’s show on this type of crap!

I hope he refers to me as “Btard”.

Barry,
That is a shame that you are in Benin Republic as opposed to the Netherlands (where the email is from. I may actually flying to the Netherlands on April 2nd for a work conference.

Regards, Btard
