    What do you think of this one? I've never had one like this before.

    Dear in Christ,

    My name is Carol Kevin am 75yrs old of age, I stay at Queen Elizabeth
    Hospital NHS Trust Stadium Road Woolwich London SE18 4QH. I am a
    goodmerchant, I have several industrial companies and good share in
    variousbanks in the world. I spend all my life on investment and co-
    operatebusiness both is Asia, Europe and America here. All the way I lost
    myhusband and two beautiful children in Plane Crash.


    I am a very greedy woman with all cost I don’t know much and care about
    people, since when I had an experience of my difficulty to sleep and
    giverest. Ending of last year (September) I was sent a letter of medical
    check up, as my personal doctor testify that I have a lung cancer, which
    caneasily take off my life soon. I found it uneasy to survive myself,
    because a lot of my investment cannot be run and manage by me again. I
    quickly call up a pastor/prophet to give me positive thinking on this
    solution, as myadviser. He ministered to me to share my properties, wealth,
    to motherless baby/orphanage homes/people that need money for survivor,
    business woman andman for their investment and for future rising.


    Therefore I am writing this letter to people who are really need help to
    contact me urgently. So that I can make available preparation on
    that.Especially women of the day, who are divorced by their husband, why
    theycannot survive from feeding their self. Please contact me and stop
    weeping.Probably let me know what you really need the money for, and if you
    can still help me to distribute money to nearest orphanages homes near your
    town. Now am so much with God, am now born again.


    May the lord bless you as you reach me, please to remind you don’t belong to
    scammers or any act of fraudulent act on internet? I will give
    moreinformation to you as I await your Response immediately


    Best Regards
    Carol Kevin

    I have never, ever had any spam emails like this. I feel left out. Mr K gets them from time to time, but they never bother with me.?

    I have these all the time. I remember the first time I ever had one of these, I actually felt sorry for the person and told a collegue about it and he told me they're spam emails. ?

    They are all pretty much the same just worded differently.

    Totally agree.. Another classic was "I am a very greedy woman with all cost I don’t know much and care about people, since when I had an experience of my difficulty to sleep and giverest." ?
