Dear MTT,
I have been referred to you by business contacts who assure me that you are a most trustworthy and erudite man of your word. I am seeking assistance in the matter of recovering the inheritance of my family, the Royal Family of Nigeria, totalling over 500 million $US, much of which was stolen from us under a previous military government...

Originally posted by Cliphead View PostA guy I know went for something similar a few years ago, way better than the above pic. She came over here and stayed with him for a few weeks, wowed the locals in Stornoway although that wouldn't be hard.
A couple of months after she goes back to Russia he goes over for a visit and is back 2 days later. He won't talk about it but seems he was picked up at the airport by gangsters demanding money etc, but he managed to get away.
Don't know if he ever followed up on the HIV test it was suggested he had.Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!Comment
