Fuck you Dr Richard Blair, SPAMMER

This motherfucker compromised my gmail account today. I was on it in a FLASH.

Greetings to you


Before I introduce myself. I wish to inform you that this mail is not a hoax mail and I urge you to treat it with seriousness. This letter must come to you as a big surprise, but I believe it is only a day that people meet and become great friends and business partners. My name is DR.

As I said, I have a transaction that will benefit both of us, as your assistance is required as a foreigner. I use to work as head of the Accounts department in my bank head office, but last December I was asked to take position of a Manager at one of our branches to replace the former who passed on, so that was how I became the present Manager and discovered a Fortune.As I resumed duty, during my routine check and taking over, I discovered an account with a substantial sum of money in United States dollars that has been floating and unaccounted for the past 4 years.


From my investigation, I discovered that the branch in which I am the manager, made excess profit from an accrued interest on money deposited by the Economic community of West African states contract payment committee, and the money has been floating. In fact, I have PLACED this fund in an ESCROW CALL ACCOUNT without a legitimate beneficiary and which will change to your name as soon as you identify your interest in writing. The escrow call account is a secret type of account in my bank and no other person knows about this account or any thing concerning it, the account has no other beneficiary. I have kept a close monitoring of the account since then. As the branch manager of the bank, I cannot directly take out this money without the help of a foreigner and that is why I am contacting you for assistance.


I have the power to influence the release of the funds to any foreigner that comes up as the depositor of the money, with the
And that's it. Can't even send a complete shitty SPAM email. Douchebag!
