USD$11.5million for me?
So I am all done my first semester at Southern! I handed in my last paper this afternoon, went over to check out the apartment that’s been offered to me, and just started packing my duffel bag for the bus ride home (mostly books lol)!
I also just checked my email and found this in the “Junk” folder. Apparently, I could be the next-of-kin of a certain Mr. W. A. Leung… I’m not sure how he’s figured out my name, but it is certainly public information. *I am tempted to mess this guy up and tell him to send a check (not cheque) to my mailbox here in Kentucky!!

FROM BARRISTER DOUGLAS JAMES.

Here in after shall be referred to as my client. On the 21st of April 2004, my client, his wife and their only daughter were involved in auto crash along ecowas express road. All occupants of the vehicle unfortunately lost there lives. Since then I have made several enquiries to your embassy here to locate any of my clients extended relatives, this has also proved unsuccessful.
After these several unsuccessful attempts,I decided to track his last name over the Internet, to locate any member of his family hence I contacted you.I have contacted you to assist in repartrating the fund valued at usd$11.5million left behind by my client before it gets confisicated or declared unserviceable by the BANK OF GHANA where this huge amount was deposited. The said Bank has issued me a notice to provide the next of kin or have his account confisicated within the next twenty one official working days. Since I have been unsuccesfull in locating the relatives for over 2years now, I seek the consent to present you as the next of kin to the deceased since you have the same last names, so that the proceeds of this account can be paid to you.
Therefore, on receipt of your positive response, we shall then discuss the sharing ratio and modalities for transfer.I have all necessary information and legal documents needed to back you up for claim. All I require from you is your honest cooperation to enable us see this transaction through. I guarantee that this will be executed under legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any breach of the law. Please get in touch with me through this email for more details.
Best regards.
Barrister Douglas James.

When I saw this title in my reader, I thought that was the new offer for your domain name, haha. I was like wow, they must really want that url!
It would be cool though, I mean, 11.5 Million USD is essentially 11.5 Million CND. If the dollar goes back up though, that would be roughly 20 Billion CND
If it looks like a scam, smells like a scam, then it must be a scam!
But.. but… I want to scam this guy! hehehe
Actually, about my domain - I haven’t officially posted about it, but I responded in rejection of their $2k offer and said I am convinced that it’s worth at least $8k
I’ll let those guys sleep on that for a while to rethink how much this domain is really worth to them.
By that time, I’m going to ask for $11.5million
HAHAHA
