Another wrinkle on the Nigerian e-mail scam.

[mcscajun]

I've got 'em before, I'll get 'em again. So have you, so will you.

If you haven't gotten this one before, it'll be an eye-opener. Obviously, one of my far-flung friends' e-mail account has been hacked, as it appeared to come directly from her (full name/e-mail address), and the opening would appear that she's in trouble and needs my help. (From the addressing, it clearly came to me as a BCC, so it's not all THAT personal. This joker/thief has sent this to everyone in my friend's hacked address book, the bastard.)

How are you doing ? I hope you are fine,well am writing you all the way from Africa(Nigeria),i came here for a project which was brought to me by an associate there back at home,i have been to three different countries here in Africa and the are all great places to be at,i have visited South Africa you need to see the way they related to me,these people are so wonderful i went to a place called SUN CITY there in South Africa you need to see the various kinds of animals they have here,i just can't wait to be back to show you the photos i have from my journey.The Project was about Racism and Human Interaction,i was also in Ghana and i visited AKWAABA TOURS there in Ghana.
Recently i came here to Nigeria i started enjoying my stay,i got to eat all kind of foods and some kind of Africa SALAD which they call it,i lodged in an hotel and was paying through travellers check which i cashed at the Nigeria Airport and all was going smoothly,i planned to live this place last week but unfortunately i was not able to do so because am having problem with my credit card which i planned to start using after i run out of cash, but it doesnt work here,i owing the hotel $900 which is now hanging around i can not pay it, because my card is not working,i need to get a ticket which is $550 for to come back home,all this problems have gotten me worried that is why i decided to let you know,because i know you are someone i can share my problems with and i know at least i will get them solved.A waiter(George) here has been helping out he was the person that brought me to the City Library where am sending this message,so i want you to lend me $1450,immediately i get back home i will pay up instantly,please you will have to help me send the money,through Western Union,and you will have to send it through the Waiters name because i can not collect money because non-citizen cannot receive money,i would have love to call you but they can not recieve and call international destination,it is a remote area,so please here is the information sending me the money:
