Are You Really That Broke Over There?

[Laurie]

Very nice of Michelle to e-mail me asking for contribution to her husband's funds, but I don't think I will.

Not even sure it would be legal!

I know spammers cast a wide net, but do they really think a .UK address is going to generate very much on this one?

We are even more broke over here!

I have no idea what the OP is talking about here.

 

[oakapple]

Me neither, but suppose he has had a spam request for cash.

 

[AZ Jim]

I dunno....weird though.

The nerve of them spammers!

Do you mean the First Lady of the U.S. emailed you asking you to contribute to her husband's funds? For what reason??

Purportedly.

Spam, obviously, as has been suggested. Sorry, this apparently wasn't as obvious as I supposed.

So you got a SPAM email... and thought you'd take a little pissy shot at the US.. NOW I get it.

Found it humorous, Laurie...that a spammer was that dumb to send a request for money supposedly from our First Lady to UK. Did you happen to trace the ISP to what country it was from?

 

[Shalimar]

Yes Laurie, it was hilarious. This spammer is not a bright light! Lol.

For God's sake lighten up!

If I wanted to take a shot there's a hell of a lot more pegs I could hang my hat on.

Having spent 40 years alongside many thousands of your countrymen eyeball to eyeball with the Red Army (who eventually blinked) I have no such desire.
