Default Is This True

Eductaed College Grads,
This was in my E-Mail, is this true-----

This From An Emergency Room Doctor:
I live and work in a border state over-run with illegals. They make more money having kids than we earn working fulltime. Today I had a 25-year-old with 8 kids that’s right -- eight! All are illegal anchor babies and she had the nicest nails; cell phone; hand bag; clothing etc. She makes around $1500 monthly for each; do the math. That's about $12,000 per month folks!!

I used to say, “We are the dumbest nation on earth”. Now I must say and sadly admit: YOU are the dumbest people on earth (that includes me) for we elected the idiot idealogues who have passed the bills that allow this. Sorry; we need a revolution -- vote 'em all out in 2010.

REMEMBER -- IN NOVEMBER 2010 WE HAVE
A GOLDEN OPPORTUNITY TO CLEAN OUT
THE ENTIRE HOUSE AND
ONE-THIRD OF THE SENATE

I don't know how, but maybe some good will come of this travesty.
If an immigrant is over 65, they can apply for SSI and Medicaid and get more than an elderly woman on Social Security, who has worked from here from 1944 until 2004.
She would only be getting $791 per month because she was born in 1924 -- and there's
the 'Catch 22.'
It is interesting that the federal government provides a single refugee with a monthly allowance of $1,890. Each can also obtain an additional $580 in social assistance, for
a total of $2,470 a month.
This compares to a single pensioner, who after contributing to the growth and development of America for 40 to 50 years, can only receive a monthly maximum of $1,012 in old age pension and Guaranteed Income Supplement.
Maybe our pensioners should apply as refugees!
Consider sending this to all your American friends, so we can all be ticked off and maybe get the refugees cut back to $1,012 and the pensioners up to $2,470.

Then we can enjoy some of the money we were forced to submit to the Government over the last 40 plus years...
Vote them all out of office…

What do you do with the emails from Nigerian princes asking for your bank account number?

Yes Harry. Of course it is. It was in your e-mail this morning.

Similarly -- and please, don't tell too many people this, it's a rather delicate situation -- I recently received an e-mail from the scion of a deposed monarchy in West Africa. All this individual needed was a few thousand dollars to get his papers in order, and well the rest is very complicated, but long story short, he stands to lay rightful claim to tens of millions upon his ascension to the throne. When this happens, as you may expect, he will be pretty handsomely rewarding my investment of a few thousand measly dollars.

E-mail is a beautiful thing.

As is google. Maybe you should try to source the many "facts" in the e-mail you received. Something tells me the reality is much more wonky and much less shocking than the text of the e-mail you just received from a stranger.

Unless of course it's just more satisfying to believe everything a stranger sends you in an e-mail, in which case I have a sweet West African deposed royalty deal I can cut you in on...

My name is Owen Clarke, I am the credit manager in a bank here in the West Africa. I am contacting you of a business transfer, of a huge sum of money from a deceased account. Though I know that a transaction of this magnitude will make any one apprehensive and worried, but I am assuring you that everything has been well taken care off, and all will be well at the end of the day. I decided to contact you due to the urgency of this transaction.To ease your apprehension, I got your contact from the British chambers of commerce and industry, foreign trade division. PROPOSITION; I am the account officer of a foreigner named Gerald Welsh who died in an air crash along with his wife on the 31st October 1999 in an Egyptian airline 990 with other passengers on board. You can confirm this from the website below which was published by CNN.WEBSITE. http://www.cnn.com/US/9911/02/egypta...ist/index.html

Since his death, none of his next-of-kin are alive to make claims for this money as his heir, because they all died in the same accident(May his soul rest in peace). We cannot release the fund from his account unless someone applies for claim as the next-of-kin to the deceased as indicated in our banking guidelines. Upon this discovery, I now seek your permission to have you stand as a next of kin to the deceased, as all documentations will be carefully worked out by a lawyer for the funds Twenty- Eight million, Five Hundred Thousand United States dollars (US$28,500,000.00) in a domiciliary account to be released in your favour as the beneficiary's next of kin. Because after four years the money will be called back to the bank treasury as unclaimed bills and the money shared amongst the directors of the bank. so it is on this note i decided to seek for whom his name shall be used as the next of kin/beneficiary to this funds rather than allow the bank directors to shar! e thi! s money amongst themselves at the end of the year. It may interest you to know that we have secured from the probate an order of mandamus to locate any of the deceased beneficiaries.

Please follow the directions on this link...

Wanted to find this story that was just hilarious, a few years back... this guy baited the typical Nigerian-deposed-royalty scammer endlessly. Basically feeding the scammer all sorts of bizarre twists and turns in his trials and tribulations in getting the money back to the scammer, and his girlfriend getting suspicious, and the authorities getting suspicious, and the scammer gets more and more panicked in their correspondence...

Then the guy has his girlfriend pose as if murdered and sends the photo in one correspondence... and the Nigerian scammer is going just nuts. I remember some ridiculous drop set-up in some airport or somewhere, blanking on the details... and it's all basically a guy sitting at home at his computer in coke-bottle glasses just toying w/the scammer to no end.

Wish I had the link handy, but I'll be damned if I'm googling that all morning, when the other guys here can't even google the claims in the actual e-mails they get...

Sorry it took so long to respond but Bill Gates was sending me $5 per email and I was forwarding get well cards to that kid in England (for those you who remember it from 15 years ago).

I think this is the link to the Nigerian scammer revenge,,,
best of craigslist: Nigerian Scammer Payback


This is an even better one where a guy convinces a telemarketer he’s part of a murder investigation.. Probably fake but funny anyway..
