ps; while I await your reply at most by tuesday, if you do not reply, I
will have no choice but to find another alternative.
Anyone interested in seeing where the money should be sent? Should be able
to have a bit of fun. I though there had been enough publicity on this one that
everyone would remember the Nigeria scam by now.
Also, do any of the police in Nigeria care? Can police in any other
country trace this sort of thing? Or do the police just say to toss
it and forget it?
Better have a well protected site - they may just be sending back a virus!
