Hello,

This reminds me of when these scams first appeared.  They originally
came via post or fax.

When I received the fax, after a short moment of astonishment, then a
snigger, I too it to one of my directors, thinking he'd also see the
scam/joke.

To my horror, his eyes lit up and he instructed me to pursue the
*venture*.

It took me half a hour of arguing with him (during which I thought he was going
to fire me) to persuade him that it was a scam.
