Nice To Bloggered You

I don't know about you but I get quite a few of those e-mails that promise millions of dollars for the simple task of depositing hundreds of millions of dollars in my puny little bank account. They are called 4-1-9 e-mails, apparently after section 419 of the Nigerian criminal code. While annoying, I find them mildly amusing in their near lyrical misuse of the English language. Take two I just received today. Here's the first:

NICE TO CONTACTED YOU!

This is an honest work of God, which I am introducing to you to undertake it sincerely and urgently as child of God and to obtain blessing from God.

I am barrister mike smith a lawyer for late Mr. MOSES TONY and late Mrs. DORIS TONY. Mr. MOSES TONY was a chief accountant with a foreign oil company-GOLF in Netherlands for 8yrs. In 1999 he died with his 3 children in motor accident and leaving her wife a widow without a child. They were Christian of the first order that decided in vesting in Amsterdam by banking their money in financial bank and a erecting 6 duplex super houses in Amsterdam.

Now, I'd love to see the 6 duplex super houses in Amsterdam and talk with these Christians of the first order in their honest work. And maybe I could if I qualify as "a responsible and honest person who resides in an entirely country" to be the recipient of "this fund of 25,004,002 Euro and estate for the upliftment of christen cause."

Here's another, just received today:

Due to the political crisis here, I have decided to nominate your name to claim this consignment of Gold & Diamonds on my behalf as my business partner & also you have to promised me that you will not sit on my money when it gets to your country that is why I need your assistance as a God fearing person. As soon as the consignment release from the storage company, the fund will be transferred through a bank or we make a good arrangement with a diplomat to bring the consignment directly to your doorstep in your country through a diplomatic means.

Directly to my doorstep? You mean $8.5 million in gold and diamonds at my doorstep in St. Paul, so long as I don't sit on them? How can I resist, especially as a God fearing person of the first Christian order for the upliftment of children and others? Nice to bloggered you indeed!
