Cthulhu 419 scam

Taken from http://www.geocities.com/steerp1ke/David_Ehi.html I just stripped out the geocities stuff

It’s October! In this spirit of Halloween, for this scam I’m trading my Tom Udo
persona for Randolph Carter. If you’re familiar with the works of H.P.
Lovecraft, a fantasy and horror writer from the 1920s, you’ll appreciate this,
as I include a bunch of references to Lovecraft’s “Cthulhu mythos.” If you’re
not, sit back and enjoy the ride as Randolph gets way more than he
bargained for. In the exchanges below, Randolph’s messages have blue headers,
and the Nigerian Lad’s are in red. To help you read through faster, the
important parts of the Nigerian’s are highlighted in red text.

Then I loaned (yes, I know, technically illegal) my DVDs of spaced to one of the co-workers who had never experienced it so that he could be one with the geek.

Dictator cards

Top trumps … with ‘great’ dictators. Looks like it could be fun, if a bit limited. I want to play Junta with the Bush(shrub) cabinet! Minister for Internal Security, El Presidente for life! Viva el Prez.
