money matters

After reading some of those mails... i started to think... am i that stupid to fall for something like this???? some seem so real!!! they even have websites to refer from... better than all the cititions we have to do for our assignments.... well... nowadays with everything is getting more expensive than it usually was.. and MBPJ being so hardworking issuing summons every now and then.... eveybody will love the extra cash anyway... especially when it is in US dollars and even UK pounds!!!!! whoosh!!!

they will give you some random place names like ouagadougou, burkina faso, africa... if i didnt watch the amazing race... i would never know if such places actually do exist.... but its a really popular place to use for scams i suppose because quite a number of them were addresses in burkina faso, africa....

some of the letters claimed that i have inherited a few millions of US dollars from someone i had never ever heard before.. and that person claims that i'm the nearest person to the deceased.... waaaa..... "lucky"!!!! dont you think that it's really suspicious???? if someone i never knew in my life gave me something... i would also check who is he/she claiming to be??? my some long lost relative or something???? mind you, i have a very big family.. with almost 40 cousins all around me... so why am i chosen instead of them???? why didnt others know about this as well??? i have more than 20 cousins from my mom's side and more than 10 from my dad's side... so how come NONE of them knew anything about it???? hahahahaha.... too bad.. you picked a tricky target... if i'm the only child of the only child(means my parents are only childs too) maybe it may seem a little more convincing then because i have nobody else to refer to....

and others claimed that they have some business deals to offer... giving 40% of their funds.... waaa... such a great big business offer and you are offering it to me... i mean me as a non-business-type student who have no earning power in such.... a great big business deal which involves millions, billions... trillions of US dollars???? who am i to receive such "honour"???? i'm no bill gates, uncle lim's relatives or mr lee kashing's somebody... so why me???

and lastly... there are also lottery strikes.... i remember when the time i was presenting on "datuk gong" (oh gosh i mentioned the name again!!!! that means my face will appear again on the "search results" page for datuk gong!!!!noooo....) i remember saying that people dont win the lottery eventhough after they worshipped datuk gong is because they did not follow the rules of worshipping properly... that is why people dont win the lottery everyday.... and now you are expecting me to believe that i actually won lottery???? without even worshiping datuk gong, tudi gong, guanyin ma, jesus christ, or even allah????? and the lottery winnings involves millions of pounds!!! not pounds of butter or meat.... it's british pounds man!!!! 1 is to around rm6 malaysian ringgit... as far as i remember... i'm not sure about the actual exchange rate.... that's like totally impossible....

sometimes i wonder... what if any of these mails are actually real???? (which is something that will never happen ever ever.... unless i'm dumb enough to fall into it) if i really did get big money from nowhere???? hahaha... then that will be a great waste, wouldnt it???
