Here is this lady sending me this in mylot mail. You know it is a scam as she relates that her husband is hiding then further down she refers to him as her late husband as if he was dead. The nerve these people have....Does anyone know how to send this to the admin so maybe they can stop her as I am sure once again she has probably spammed everyone here...

My Dear,
I am Mrs. Sese Seko Mobutu, the wife of Late Sese Seko Mobutu, the Former President of democratic Republic of Congo. Laurent Kabila dethroned my Husband, which force him to take refuge in Nigeria with his entire family until his death.
After much deliberation with My Son(Alfonso Mobutu) and our Family Lawyer concerning my Late Husband fund which is saved in a security company in London, He further advice us to look for a foreign partner who will be willing to help us claim the fund. We decided to contact you after looking through your profile.
Please for further information do reply me through my Son private email box
alfonmobutu1@hotmail.com and alfonsomobu@yahoo.com
. Since Alfonso Mobutu is the first Son of my Late Husband he will be dealing with you in regard to this transaction. Please Reply through his email Box so that he can be able a to furnish all the details information in confidential.
Thanks waiting to read from you through my Son private email address. Stay Blessed.

I guess its better than having mods as most mods will be over critical.

I've rec'd a couple of these too and don't like it either. I get these from time to time in my email too. I'm glad you started this thread because we do need to warn people not to respond to this stuff. It's not on the up and up and if you're not familiar with the ways of these creeps you can get rooked into giving away bank account information and allowing these people to rob you blind. I know most of us wouldn't fall for something like this, but some would innocently assume it was the real deal. Be careful everyone and it would be nice if myLot would boot this person who is sending this out. We don't need him/her here.

I think it is difficultto monitor it and sometimes best not to have a mod start working for youa s some have a power trip. I feel your pain I hate it. I also hate lack luster answers.
