Very funny...

[sandyRoe]

Only $8 million. It's hardly worth bothering about, is it?

[RATTER15]

Sounds legit to me!!! :-)

[Gizmonster]

The sad thing is - some people actually fall for these scams :(

[buildersmate]

It's relatively easy to spot that this one isn't legit - everyone should know that the acronym for a secret diplomatic transit payment is SDTP, and not STDP.

You may get an S.T.D. if they're taking the P !!!

[smurfchops]

Are any of them legit? Pull the other one.

[DTCwordfan]

Hi BM....I think they dropped a brick by trying to get you to tap into their system.

However some folk do fall for e/mails such as you have received and should note the following.:-

[boxtops]

if you send them my details and my mother's maiden name too, do you think they would cut me in?

[vivandorron]

Has buildersmate's identity now been stolen.? Has his computer been bugged.?

Perhaps there is something afoot and the FBI is already involved because he's already lost his Avatar.
