I don't know, ,, maybe it's OK... NOT... This is one of the worst ones I've ever seen. Kind of like a first graders attempt at a con game.

...which raises the question: he gonna do what?

[J Eddington]

Yeah, lets all head to SeaTac WA! How funny. That is what the airport is called, not a city, it is Seattle. But I think he at least used a real street around the airport.

Lol, got the same email.

[Ahh!]

believe it or not Seatac, is actually the town where Seatac airport is. I know because I had to deliver there one time and I don't like to deliver to airports. Why cant these Con artists at least use SPELL CHECK. Do they not have spell check in Nigeria?

So what is the scam? Do they get free wedding pics?

My guess is they'll send you a phony cashier's check for a lot more than your fee and want you to send a real check back for the overage...Typical Nigerian 419 garbage......Ben

Hey....let me give you a check for 10,000.00 all I want is 2,000 of your money....back....I am sorry we have to do this...but I have no way of breaking up this check here...

Just like Ben says....sounds like that kind of deal....

Scam! -G

[ifly223]

Im surprised!!! They also forgot to tell you that you won the lottery there and or their father was a wealthy businessman who was murdered and they need a place to hide his fortune.LOL

[Murph]

*sigh* another 419 scam. I hate them.

[Robert Paredes]

It's scam!! I received an email like this last year, they wanted everything they are asking you in this email. They will never stop scamming people, I just wonder how many people fall for it.
