First a scare, then a windfall!
It’s a good thing I check my email spam folder.
Look, most of the stuff in the spam folder is just silly. If I needed a penis enlargement so
desperately, why would so many women named Lola want to hook-up with me?
Sometimes there are some important messages. I received two such messages today.
This first one from Citi Corp scared me.

Citi Corp is protecting me from attempts to access my account and steal
my money. Of course, this scared the
bejesus out of me so I immediately signed on and gave them all the requested
information. It is good to know that
first, a great corporation like Citi is looking out for me, and second, Citi is
doing its part to fight poverty by hiring people into their fraud division that
dozents rite Inglish so good.
I told them “thank you for you
concernment.” Then just before I hit
send to verify I am who they want to know who I am, Mrs. C reminded me
that we do not have any accounts with Citi.
Now if the first message gave me a scare, this one gave me
hope.

It seems to me
that this is in error as I don’t recall ordering an ATM card for 2.5 million
dollars from Benin, that well known African country next to Togo, however I
could sure use one.
I am definitely going
to send them money to cover the “International Delivery Permit Certificate
Fee.”
Fee.”
When I get my
card, I am going to go to the ATM at WaWa’s (because they don’t have a service
free) and withdraw all 2.5 million
dollars. I may have to make several trips;
that’s a lot of twenties.
Then because I
know their security is so thorough I will open an account and deposit all those twenties with Citi
Corp.
People, please, always check your spam folder or you
may miss out on some very important opportunities!
Holy Cow!! I just received this

What are the odds?
