Who knew the Nigerian money scammers were BN'ers?

Got this in my PM box this morning:

From Sister(Mrs).Anthonia Richard
Abidjan Ivory Coast West Africa

Dearest in the lord,

I am Mrs. Anthonia A. Richard , from Sierra Leone . I am married to late Mr
Edward Richard Obere , who worked with Sierra Leone Embassy in Ivory Coast for
Sixteen years before he died in the year 2004,after a brief illness that lasted
for only five days. We were married for Eighteen years with a duaghter (Stella)
who later died in a motor accident.
Before the untimely death of my husband,we were both born again Christians(from
Muslim to Christianity). And since after his death I decided not to remarry or
get a child outside my matrimonial home .
When my late husband was alive he deposited the sum of (US$1.2M ) One
Million,Two hundred Thousand United States Dollars) in a General Trust Account
with a prime bank in Abidjan Ivory Coast .

Following my ill health, being a victim to cancer , I have decided to donate
this fund to a Christain organizations (Church) that will utilize this fund the
way I am going to instruct herein,according to the desire of my late husband. I
want this fund to be used in Christian Activities like,Orphanages, Christain
schools, and Churches for propagating the word of God and to endeavour that the
house of the lord is maintained.
I took this decision because I don't have any child that will inherit this
money and my husband relatives are not Christians and do not know about this
deposit . I am not afraid of death since I know where I am going. Exodus 14 VS
14 says that "the lord will fight my case and I shall hold my peace".

I don't need any telephone communication in this regard because of my
health situation as well the presence of my late husband's relatives around
me . I don't want them to know about this development/wish of my late
husband hence I want it to be fulfilled . As soon as I receive your reply, I
shall give you the contact of the bank here in Abidjan and would introduce you
officially to them. My happiness is that I lived a life of a worthy Christian.
Whoever that Wants to serve the Lord must serve him in spirit and truth. Please
always be prayerful all through your life as well commit me into your daily
prayers. Contact me on this Private Box
(anthonia_r02@yahoo.com ) as soon as possible since any delay in your reply
will give me room to source another Church/christian for this same purpose.
Please assure me that you will act accordingly as I stated herein. Hoping to
receive your reply immediately .

Remain blessed in the Lord.

Yours in Christ,
Sister Anthonia Richard.

Really? That's great. Look, if you're looking for investments, I got this great bridge to sell you, nice location right over in Brooklyn.

They just realize you're not as gullible as the rest of us.

I had gotten one like that a few months ago. Now my e-mail has to be on a list. I get 2-3 of those a day. I try to mark them as spam but they keep coming. I hope you don't start getting piles of those. Who knew there were so many rich people out there that needed help with their money.

Coincidentally, I just happen to have taken the vow (or whatever it is you do to be Christian) and I do happen to have started my own church . . .

I will be in touch with Sister Anthonia Richard in the name of the Lord (peace be upon him).

I also got 3 pms from Sister AR. I thought at first it may be Sister Parrothead coming back to BN.

I guess they were clever enough to figure out how to pm a list!? I never knew you could do that!

Yep, I also got a pm this morning from Sister Anthonia Richard.
