Blogging Gets Me Work

The anonymous editor at Blawg Review received this email:

Greetings,

I am Barr.SHANE M BOLTON. I am reaching you to handle an investment portfolio. I am reaching you to assist in repatriating the funds and property left behind by my late client before it will be confiscated by government and declared unserviceable by the bank where the huge deposits were lodged.

He died intestate and every attempt to trace any member of his family has proved abortive and unsuccessful.

Do note that who you are does not matter and you will be better informed when I hear from you.

I want you to respond by sending:

1. Your full names
2. Tel & fax numbers
3. Complete Address

Send the above information and I will furnish you with more information about the estate and process of transfer to you.

Yours Faithfully,

Barrister SHANE M BOLTON ESQ.
Dakar Senegal

Anyhoo, this isn't really my area of expertise, so I don't think I'll be sending Mr. Bolton my full names, after all.
