[spam] Well, that's a new one!

You know those lovely "hey, I have all this money that needs to be transferred elsewhere, help me" spam messages?

Now there's apparently a twist where they want the money in question to go to "a person that is God fearing that will use this money to fund churches, orphanages and widows propagating the word of God and to ensure that the house of God is maintained."

Huh. I wonder how many people are going to fall for this one?

('Course, my other notable spam email for the morning relates to the US election stuff... Nutty. If it weren't coming from a completely unknown address, and if I weren't entirely tired of the elecetion stuff, it would actually look reasonably real)

I think they're just trying to get laughs out of greedy (and gullible) SoBs emailing them back and trying to convince them just how god-fearing and nice they are...
