    Funniest email I have ever received

    Hello,

    from: Mrs. Emma Ashqar.
    Central Bank of West African
    Ivory Coast (Cote d'Ivoire).
    In West Africa.

    Dear friend,

    This message might meet you in utmost surprise. However, it's just the urgent need for a foreign partner that made me to contact you for this transaction. I am Mrs. Emma Ashqar. from Ivory Coast (Cote d'Ivoire). in west Africa. I got your e-mail contacts from website after my extensive search for capable person. I prayed and meditated fervently over it and i committed it into the hands of almighty that you should be the rightful person to help out before I made up my mind to contact you today.

    I have the opportunity of transferring the left over fund sum of $11.5million dollars into a foreign account and the said fund belongs to our deceased client. Hence, I am inviting you for a business deal where this money can be shared between us in the ratio of 60/40 if you agree to my business proposal.

    Further details of the transfer will be forwarded to you as soon as I receive your return mail.
    Have a great day.

    Thanks,
    Sincerely,
    Mrs. Emma Ashqar.

    Dude... you should go for it man.... i mean it doesnt sound too good to be true imo. i mean if it was more than 12 million i would be skeptical. but 11.5 sounds reasonable. nothing out of the ordinary there....

    LOL

    I always mess with these people... I had a stack of envelopes in my office of fraudulent checks from overseas until the popo found out about it and confiscated them... They pay big money to send checks over here... after exchange rates they were sometimes 40-50 bucks a check just to mail them

    I get these all the time. I really like the ones from the FBI and that everything is legal and that if I don't respond that an agent will be sent to my house. Way too funny...

    nice. I've read some pretty funny blogs where guys will reply to waste their time, effort, and money. Were they sending you fake checks for you to cash and send funds back to them or something? How did the police find out about you having them?

    Mrs. Emma Ashqar. got your e-mail from searching websites. Maybe she found you from this website. You should trade her your 40% for some g/u or autos!
