Is that so? You think you\'re better than me just because you can\'t understand my english? In this case, my big brother will take over! OH, you make me SO MAD!!! I\'ll go and shout your name in the streets!! Brother, you write to Andre please.
Dear Mr Koffi,
I hope this email finds you well. I am Erich, Ivan\'s brother. I know his
english is sub par, but I hope you can understand me better.
First of all, let me apologize that it took me so long to reply to you.
Turbulent times here as my brother just got arrested. He is not a bad man, I
assure you that, and he couldn\'t harm a fly, but he is charged with taking
part in some sort of scam. The fine is 250,000.00 Rubels, which would be
8,946.14 US Dollars. I am trying to get the money, dear Sir, but it is hard
as payment is low and work is scarce. I live at the minimum possible and
sold whatever I could (even the PC, so I am writing this from an Internet
Cafe), but it is hard to get so much money and still maintain a state worth
living. Please Sir, I beg you, find it in your heart to help me and my poor
brother out. I am appealing to your sense of decency - when I get my brother
out of jail, I will do this transaction with you if you want - I don\'t even
want so much money, please, do keep it all, I am desperate. I ask for but
10.000$, then I could get my brother out of jail, buy back what I sold and
we could go on with our lifes. Really any amount would help tremendously - I
offer my eternal gratitude. Please, do reply back as soon as possible! I
will check back in about a week if my funds permits it.
Thank you so much in advance, my friend. You are my brother\'s hope, he\'s
sure that you can help him, and I think so too. You are our light at the end
of a dark, dark tunnel.
Regardless of all those troubles, I so do hope you will have a merry
christmas.

Unfortunately, Nigeria cares not for the likes of me. I was left to rot in jail, and with the excuse of \"unfortunately not being able to make a transaction to Russia\" Andre Kofi vanished as quickly as he appeared. I sent another mail, but unfortunately by that time the address was already deleted.
I tried somehting similar just before my operation but just got a \"Don\'t waste my time\" reply.
I\'m eagerly waiting for the next spam.
