I just received a call from someone who said he

[RebelOne]

was Robert Freeman. He had a very heavy accent. He said that I won $350,000. And I said to him that I assumed he was calling from Nigeria and hung up. I know I didn't win the lottery because I didn't buy a ticket nor have I entered any contests or raffles. Who do these jokers think they are kidding?

1. Unfortunately, they seem to target senior citizens.

And sometimes they fall for it. Sad.....

2. I'm sure she found that advice comforting.

3. Well, I am a senior citizen,

and I was not dumb enough to fall for it. I just wonder how many others do. I used to visit http://www.419eater.com frequently and am quite familiar with all the scams of these Nigerian crooks

4. That's an interesting site.

I went to its forum and saw somebody named grovelbot posting.

6. Someone posted that song should be the national anthem of Nigeria.

I gotta agree.

7. Actually only a very tiny fraction

of the 130m Nigerians do any kind of email fraud. i used to think it was a myth when I was younger. And most of a huge majority of the ones that even engage in this fraud are outside the country. So no, this cannot be the Nigerian National anthem. It will confuse the hell out of a lot of people
