3. You don't think it's legitimate?
Reads almost verbatim the way I'd expect Mr. Gonzalez to write after hearing his testimony before various congressional committees.

4. Not a chance.
He may be an idiot. But he's a rich idiot. Rich idiots don't type letters, their secretaries do.

And they definitely aren't involved in the recruiting process for work from home jobs, advertised from Holland.

7. Nope
Did get one from a purported British artist who wanted someone to act as a rep in the U.S., though. Isn't it so nice to see the Nigerians are branching out and finding new ways to separate fools from their money?
