Who Wants to be a Millionaire?

When this blog first started, I used to receive "Get Rich Quick" schemes all the time. I made a point to respond to each and every one hoping to get a response from the scammers. Posted below is an ongoing conversation with one such person. I hope that you find this educational because we are only trying to save lives here.

The First Letter

You have a funny name.

Kindly send me your telephone numbers, we need to talk.

I'm Getting Frustrated

Thanks for the compliment on my name, Meli. Please send me some pictures, because I don't date ugly chicks. I am really looking forward to some pictures.

I have received your pic, and I have also attached mine for you.

You are indeed a very handsome man, and I will like us to meet soon with my inheritance successfully transferred through your bank account.

Kindly send me your telephone number, so that we can talk more.

Yours,

She's Hot Too!

Meli,
Dammit, you look some kinda fine in that photo. Do you have any more? I personally like blue. How about a swim suit picture so I can see more of you? I am so looking forward to it.

Two Dogs

Just Like All Women

YOU TALK STUPID, I DON't LIKE STUPID TALKS.

I Try To Defuse The Situation

Meli,
What did I say? I actually gave you a compliment. I think that you are very pretty and asked for more pictures, how can that be stupid? I am sorry that I like attractive women, but I refuse to change that. Send more pictures, please....

Two Dogs

She Ain't Biting

Two Dogs, or three,

I told you, you can go eat your lemon.

I Try To Save Face

My darling, I know not what made you get mad. All I know is that you contacted me from a dating site and now you want to drop me. Please, let me know what I did to upset you. Oh, and send more pictures.

Two Dogs

I'll keep y'all posted of further developments with me and my betrothed. I'm so in love.
