There's a thread on this on the Atlas board already.  That's the place to go to if you ever receive anything like this again.  Smiley

I didn't get the message.

I'm not complaining, just making an observation.

I agree, but I think we may be talking about different people.

why? Shouldn't we look into our hearts, and help the poor man? All we need to do is give him our bank account number's and we can make a big difference in his life and earn a little at the same time. How could any of this be bad?

This is so legit. I'm currently awaiting my paypal transfer. It turns out this person is really a super wealthy monarch of some obscure country, they just needed to borrow my identity for a few days. They sent me this picture: <img>queenofengland.jpg</img> weird..it's not showing. Well I trust them.
