Scamming
Lately we have been bombarded at home by telemarketers calling around 6pm from wanting us to change our phone carrier offering free phones to people selling us insurance.
The insurance guy was so insistant even though I told him I wasn't interested his response was
"But sir you could have an accident any day." my response was
"Sir, if your jinxing me to have an accident I'll curse you and all members of your family to a life of misery."
He soon backed down and hung up.
I've even had the Nigerian scammers sending me emails promising me millions if I gave them my bank account details.
Well move over Nigerians cause the Iraqis are moving on your turf.
I recieved this in my email today..
"Investment Plan Please read! In April 2003, Staff Sergeant Kenneth Buff of the United States Army found US$160 million hidden by fleeing members of the Baath Party led by former dictator Saddam Hussein of Iraq. Later, a search of the area revealed more hidden loot, totaling US$650million in all! For a detailed account of the money found by the US Soldiers, please click on the following website: http://www.smh.com.au/articles/2003/04/20/1050777165192. Last week, during a routine archaeological excavation of the area east of Tigris River, I discovered 2 boxes of the similar kind found by US Army! After careful examination I discovered that it is $100 US Dollars notes totaling USD 7Million, which I concealed personally and packaged in one box hidden safely at my place of residence.I need foreign help! Can you help me? I do not have any foreign contacts. I will therefore appreciate your help to move this money abroad for investment. If you are interested, please reply urgently so that we can conclude the plan to move this money. It will be 100% risk free! You will not be required to travel to Iraq. Rather I can send it to you via diplomatic courier service through special arrangement to your country for you to clear and collect and proceed for subsequent lodgment of the money into your designated account pending my arrival as time can permit me.May Allah bless you!Regards,Samir Abou RabiaBaghdad Iraq samirrabia2@redejovem.net"
Come on! Please!

I always tell the telemarketers that the person is dead, or I pretend that I am retarded. It gets them off the phone, and you off the calling list.
Telemarketers are a pain in the ass. I usually just hang up.
I believe that Iraqi phish is based on the on plot of the movie Three Kings. Maybe Ice Cube is running a scam!
