As you know, I have this ongoing blog series called SPAM JAM where I post some of the most outrageous or at least entertaining spam mails I, like many others, receive on a daily basis. This one particularly rubbed the right way. I can imagine the poor girl in the picture has no idea her mug is being used to scam $ and landing in thousands of spam boxes around the globe. Or does she?

Hello Dear,
I am very happy to receive your reply today,Thanks for your acceptance to my proposal,How was your day?,Mine is a little bit hot over here in Dakar Senegal.Like I told you before my name is enderlin Karume,24yrs old,single and never married before.I believe that it is important we get to know each other better for trust and confidence which is necessary in any good and lasting relationship built on truth and real love.

I love reading and spots and like to visit parks and garden to be close to nature.. I love children too and will like to have many children when i get married.I am from Ivory Coast in West Africa and i am presently staying in a refugee camp here in dakar Senegal as a result of the civil war that was fought in my country
My late father Dr Federick Karume was the managing director of Fredcocoa and Associates (Ltd) and he was the personal advicer to the former head of state (Late Dr Robert Guei) 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.

I have a special reason why I decided to contact you.
Please listen to this,Because of my urgency need of your help i have to give you more information about me with the hope that you will truly help me as i expect,i have my late father’s statement of account and death certificate here with me which i will send to you latter,because when he was alive he deposited some amount of money in one of the leading banks in Europe which he used my name as the next of kin,the amount in question is $7.3( Seven Million three Hundred Thousand US Dollars) and the bank gave me a condition to get a foreign partner who will stand for me due to my living status,

So i will like you to help me transfer this money to your account and from it you can send me some money for me to get my traveling documents and air ticket to come over to meet with you.I will give you all the necessary information about the money and will introduce you directly to the bank transfer manager for discussions because the manager is waiting for me now to present my trustee so that they release this money to me.As a refugee here i don’t have any right or privilege to work or engage in any business or financial matters,be it money or whatever because it is against the law of this country and I will like to come over to your country and start a new life and go back to school because i only attended my first year before the tragic incident that lead to my being in this situation now took place.

I kept this secret from people in the camp here the only person that knows about it is the Reverend because he is like a father to me.So in the light of above i will like you to keep it to yourself and don’t tell it to anyone for i am afraid of loosing my life and the money if people gets to know about it.
Remember i am giving you all this information due to the trust i deposed on you, i like honest and understanding people and a man of vision, truth and hardworking,

In this Refugee camp its like one staying in the prison because you do not have freedom of your own,I hope by Gods grace i will come out of here soon if everything works out well between me and you together.I don’t have any relatives now whom i can go to because they all ran away in the middle of the war in my country,The only person i have now is ( Rev.Henry joshua ) who is the pastor of (Kingdom’s Assembly Int’l Churches) here in the camp,he has been very nice to me since i came here,you can reach me through the reverend’s telephone number.

His telephone number is (+221768703710) If you call just tell him that you want to speak with me (the girl that came from Ivory coast),he will send for me in the hostel to come and answer your call,

Meanwhile i will like you to call me like i said i have a lot to tell you,have a nice day and think about me,awaiting to hear from you soonest,I attarch my picture bellow and i will like to see your own.

Yours in love
enderlin
