\nI just got two copies of the same spam about 11 minute apart (never a good sign), and this one has a particularly bizarre premise. Some fellow claiming to have been a former archbishop in the Catholic church<\/em> apparently has $7.2 million<\/em> that he wants to pass along to me so I can continue his good works on behalf of homeless children.<\/p>\n

First, how many archhbishops are going to have $7.2M(!) lying around in their personal bank accounts? He claims to have inherited it from his dad, but even if that were true I doubt it would be sitting around in a random bank account for him to reassign without the church taking an interest.<\/p>\n

Second, how many people get to the level of archbishops (and have dads who are oil and diamond tycoons) and don’t know a better way to manage that kind of money than e-mailing random strangers and hoping for the best!<\/p>\n

Sorry – gotta go – I appear to have won three or four major international lotteries in the last few minutes…<\/p>\nNo tag for this post.\n\t
