How anyone receiving the above could think it was genuine is beyond me. The language just does not read correctly, even for a HBC councillor!

Sent I would say by someone whose first language is not English, like most of these, and as soon as Western Union is mentioned alarm bells should start to ring...

I get several scam emails each day, never so far purporting to be from someone I know... but yesterday I had one from Yasser Arafat's missus and I've had them from Gaddafi's family (not)
Ya susie, when anybody uses that statement send money by Western Union, should be enough really and a friend doesn't write letters like that
