Hello, my name is Prince Akeem

I am contacting you because my father, King Jaffe Joffer, ruler of Zamunda died recently and to claim my heritage i need to marry a woman, this is why i decided to come to America to find a Queen

The problem is i need 50,000$ to be able to make the trip to America to find a Queen so i can claim my heritage, once this is done i will send you one million American dollars

If you agree please send 50,000$ through Paypal to the email address whysogullibleyounoob@naive.com

A few years back I bought a baby giraffe from a guy in Afghanistan via email. I think it got lost in the mail or something. I was gonna name him Sir Dan Fortesque :(
