I got an email from Donald Trump

[RAB910]

Somehow I ended up on a right-wing email list. I never tried to opt-out because I like to waste their resources and keep an eye on what they are telling their anti-American followers.


So here is what Donald Trump asked of me today:

Patriot,

THE MOST IMPORTANT THING YOU CAN DO TO SAVE AMERICA:

President Trump requested $25 from you.

He needs your transaction in 10 MINS.

...

the rest is how to donate.

1. Any way to send it to him in rubles?

[RAB910]

2. My last name isn't Putin

so I don't think he will accept them from me

4. Good point!

3. Postage due?

5. I sent a bunch of pennies taped to a pice of paper

inside one of their postage paid return envelopes once. No return address of course.

6. GAWD! Spray yourself with lysol. nt

7. Was the e-mail in crayon.

8. Big clue to a scam is if they need you to pay RIGHT AWAY!

If they give you time to think it over, you might wiggle off the hook.

9. Isn't a genuine GOP fundraising email also a scam though?

How would you differentiate?

10. I put them all in the same file. The circular one under my desk.
