So randomly the other day I got an e-mail from some lady named Habimana Birara, and it's completely ridiculous. Check this out:
Hello,

The funny thing is, this wasn't sent to my spam folder, so I decided to see how far this could get by responding "Could you explain a little more why you contacted me?", and the best part is the message I got the next day:
Dearest ,
How was your night over there in your country and the day,i believe you had a nice day and that the atmosphere over there in our country is very nice today? Mine was a little bit hot over here in Dakar Senegal.

My name is Habimana J.B. Birara i am (24yrs old Girl) but age doesn't matter in a real relationship,so i am comfortable with your age,I am from Rwanda in Africa,5.4ft tall, fair in complexion, single, (never married ) and presently i am residing here in Dakar as a result of the civil war that was fought in my country some years ago.
My late father Mr J.B. BIRARA was former Governor and President of the Board of Director Rwanda National Bank of Rwanda in KIGALI(the capital city of RWANDA,my country) before the rebels attacked our house one early morning and killed my mother and my father in cold blood.

It was only me that is alive now and I managed to make my way to a near by country SENEGAL where i am leaving now as a refugee under a Reverend father's care and i am using his computer to send these message to you.
I would like to know more about you.Your likes and dislikes,your hobbies and i will tell you more about myself in my next mail.Attached here is my picture.
Hoping to hear from you soonest .
Yours forever.

Attached with this second e-mail, was this image, which I admit looks like it's been looked up on Google Images. LOL

So, I just decided to see how far this fake e-mail trickery will go on by responding, but keeping my personal info and everything on my end secret. I bet at some point she's gonna ask "Where do you live, what's your address?" and stuff... But this is funny, I'm amused enough. Did you guys ever get weird e-mails like this? o.0 Is this a scam formula that I've just never seen before?
 
Theyre just bots. I used to get these quite frequently. It led to my email adress being closed down. Not worth paying attention to. Delete immediately i say.
Id get them on msn messenger aswell. Itd say like. Oh hey how are you hun ive been desperate for a man. Come see me on xxxgirls.com or soemthing like that blah blah blah.
 
Wow... I am glad I don't get these. My mum advised me to tell you to not even open. Who knows... there could be viruses. :/
 
Scam Bam Uncle Sam. That looks and sounds and feels and smells just like virusy emails all up in yo inbox. Don't open any more! D=
 
This is not weird an interesting, it is mundane and every day. It is clearly spam that slipped through the spam filter of your e-mail provider, deletion is your best option. If you don't want to that though, a good pal of mine is the deposed King of Nigeria and needs to store 2 million dollars in your bank account!
 
Yup. I just got one like this the other day. I was freaked out at first. I did not bother replying to it. Mine was basically the same as yours.. but kinda different. If you got it in your junk folder like me, and was like "what the hell". Weird because I never got these before... and somehow the other day I did. I would not reply if I were you though. :gasp: I am talking about the one involving murder, by the way.
 
:huh:

Did you just start using the internet last week or something? :wacky:

He is also an excellent pal of mine!
 
I've been usin' the internet since I was 9 :D

...I'm not 10 -.-

I just want to see how far this goes until she asks me for my credit card number, requests to meet me and sends me a suspicious .bat file in an attachment. LOL

I can admit that I'm impressed with this scam's details. They made up a story that's movie worthy, as you can see in her second message.
 
Unless the only films you have ever seen involve someone taking you into a small room and defecating right in your eye, you should not consider that a movie-worthy concept. You have been using the internet since you were nine and you are still this much of a silly sausage? Your mama has failed you dear sir
 
It doesn't help I'm also extremely bored and have no life... >.>

It's not movie-worthy either, I was exaggerating. I just never had the opportunity to screw around with a bot, anyway... Unless you count those IQ test ones on MSN that say they're taking a shower and that I need to compete with their score >.>
 
This seems more appropriate in spam so I'll shift it over. Say goodbye to your post counts. :mokken:
 
The closest thing i got to this was some person trying to add me and its name was Patrickswayzesomething@blahblahblah I figured it was a hacker or something so I just blocked it ~.~ I wasn't a fan of Swayze to begin with so I could care less but if I ever get a Email or Invite from some person I never met I always deleted them...

Better safe than Sorry ~.~ I have had enough of Virus' bug's and crap
 
dam i like my post count :mokken:

i hate the one that say there going onm cam then give u a link to adult socal networking sites..... idiots :mokken:
