Hello there Samuel. It is super to hear from you!

I saw your advertisment for the car parts and I am very interested in sending you $4000 Ugandan Dollars. Please send me your bank account number, and sort code and I will put the monies into your account. However, before I can send you the $4000 I will need you to put $1000 Ugandan Dollars CASH, in the post to me ASAP! Once I recieve the monies which I will use to feed my children as they are very poor I will put the $4000 monies straight to your bank account.

I am very excited about these parts.

Please email me back straight away because I am very hungry and my children have no chicken nuggets or shoes.

Thankyou please.

M. Mouse.



P.S Sorry I forgot to say my full details.

My name is:
Michael Mouse

My address is:

Winnett Close,
Mongspaz Rickets,
Gommhead,

P.P.S I do not have a phone as we have no telephone wires here in Gommhead. Instead we use Carrier Pigeon. My Pigeon is called Ian.
However, he dosen't know the way to Belgium. Sorry.

Pip Pip.
