By the way, I put this in the "Vent" section because I get mail like this ALL THE TIME in my campus email. It gets very frustrating! At least I always have fun reading them for grammatical errors and because they are usually a bit amusing, especially when there are overly obvious signs that it's a scam, like this one. I just hate that some innocent people actually fall for scams like this and that these scammers are so heartless that they feed on people's religion and emotions to try to get their money...

I just got a similar one. I was so tempted to tell her off, but realized that I don't really want to share my energy with one of these bottom feeders. These scammers are just are so vile that it's best to keep away from them.

My college aged daughter found an ad in the newspaper for a secretary and sent her resume in (via internet) and they contacted her and told her that the first thing she would need to have for this job is to open a new bank account. Then they would pay her more than she earned and she would need to send some money back to someone. She had never heard of these kind of scams. I warned her to stay away from it. I think that it's sad all of the ways that someone tries to cheat us out of our hard earned money.
