I can almost picture this person flipping through a Merriam-Websters dictionary, choosing words at random. Fortunately for me, it’s how I usually converse, so I am well-armed to fire back a volley of incomprehensibilities.

You have been selected for a confirmable Bank Draft of $950,000.00 USD, which await the outstanding payment of $150USD.Contact the TNT Courier Express Company for claims with your information. Contact person Mr. West Oduduwa,Tel;+2347033325490 Email:tntcourierxpressservice02@gmail.com
Damn it, bitches! stop bouncing my carriage about! I’m trying to draft an email!
Hello Mr. Oduduwapduwapshebop,
Wow! This is the second bank draft I’ll have been made owner of in the last month! Although I’m still living quite the lavish lifestyle from the last deposit made to my bank account, I would very much be interested in receiving these funds as well, since I’m a greedy and stupid American. I’m currently traveling the Midwest U.S. via a concubine-carried carriage and my cell phone lost it’s charge over a week ago, so we will have to handle this situation via email and the U.S. postal service.
From your contact, it seems that I owe you $150.00, which I would like to take care of. Please withdraw $150 from my bank account to pay the fee. In fact, withdraw an extra $10.00 and treat yourself to a cappuccino.
thanks,

While I’ve got you, could you tell me where I might find the TV remote?

Subj: Your response is needed
Attn:
This might be a surprise to you about where I got your contact address. But all the same, I believe we do not need to be of blood relatives before we can establish Cordial relationship.
My name is Mrs. zama Olds Martin, the wife of late Mr. Martin Olds Martin, of Masingo Province of Zimbabwe. During the current war against the farmers in Zimbabwe from the supports of our President Robert Mugabe, to claim all the white-owned farms to his party members and his followers, he ordered all white farmers to surrender all their farms and Lands to his party members and his followers.
My husband is one of the richest farmers in our country and because he did not support President Mugabe’s ideas.His supporters invaded my husband’s farms and lands and burnt everything in the farms, killing my husband and made away with a lot of items.For more details visit: http://www.rte.ie/news/2000/0418/zimbabwe.html
Before my husband’s death he made it known to me that he deposited a huge sum of money with a Security Company in Johannesburg, South Africa. Then after my husband’s death, we decided to move to the Republic of South Africa seeking assylum.
I decided to contact you to assist me to transfer this fund out of South Africa because as (Refugee) Asylum seekers we are not allowed to operate any bank transaction within South Africa.
I have spent months in trying to get an overseas reliable contact, it is worthy to note that people are unreliable these days and even derive joy in telling lies.
On this ground I request your unreserved but sincere cooperation devoid of greed in carrying out this transaction so that no one amongst both of us shall defraud each other at the end. I am prepared to split the fund at 70%—30% for you, provided that mine (70%) will be intact at the end.
I wait your co-operation.
Thanks and God bless you.
Best Regards.
Mrs. Rosemary Martin Olds
Awwwwwkward…..
Hello there, Rosemary!
I must admit that at first, I was very curious about how you might have come across my contact email, but then I read the news article you linked to prove that you are really are truly who you say you are and that I can trust you because a Nigerian scammer would never link to something to try to prove that they are someone that they really are not. After reading the article, it all made sense. You see, I’m one of the guys that killed your husband and took over your farm and I lost my wallet somewhere that night. I imagine you might not remember the specifics due to all the excitement of what was happening at the time, but I was the guy grunting like a baboon while hitting your husband in the head with a club crafted from one of those funny-face totems you can buy at the beach. Let me tell you, my wife really gave me hell over that when she found bits of your husband’s brains and hair all over it. In the end though, we both had a laugh over it, as you can’t stay angry when you’re looking at those funny faces.
Now that I have your farm, I see how very expensive it is running one and would very much appreciate 30% of your fortune. I can’t get over how expensive everything is. It’s admittedly getting cheaper every day, since I’ve eaten all of your cows, half of your goats, two of the slower running dogs and your daughter’s pet gerbil, but it’s still crazy expensive hiring people to do all the work around here(it’s very tiring and I’m more of a white-collar guy). If you would like to just bring the money by, I’ll be happy to meet you for tea. Just call and leave a message with the butler(your son) and he’ll schedule you in.
thanks,

there is an extra cost when using visa or master Card.Kindly get back
to me with your name Are you the sales manager or the Owner?

Bob Wilson
Mr. Wilson, although it would seem that randomly spamming email addresses in search of radial pistons is an inefficient method of acquiring some, you’ve hit the lottery.
Hello Mr. Wilson,
We happen to have just under four billion radial pistons in stock, which you MUST purchase within the next four hours. We don’t accept credit cards, however we are willing to barter for illiterate and ignorant Nigerians. The way we’ve managed to create such a store of radial pistons is by having Nigerians shipped to us in exchange for past orders, placing them on the shop floor and telling them if they work really hard, they’ll get to meet a deposed prince’s wife. They are whirling dervishes!
I look forward to your order. You now have three hours, fifty two minutes and eleven seconds.
HURRY!
