New Scam

I get some interesting emails. I don't seem to get much in the way of 419 Nigerian scams these days - oh, just damn. Steve H. blogged about his adventures leading these leaches on his blog, and ended up writing a book about it - The Good, The Spam, and the Ugly.

But I don't remember anything quite like this:

Ms.Dorothy Rifferty drthnr312@zebren.com

MY ADORABLE YORKIE FOR ADOPTION

CALVARY GREETINGS,

MY NAME IS MS. DOROTHY RIFFERTY. I AND MY HUSBAND ARE ON A CHRISTAIN MISSION TO AFRICA AND I CAME ALONG WITH MY PUPPY(YORKIE). AFTER A WHILE I NOTICED THAT THE AFRICAN WEATHER IS NOT GOOD FOR THE PUPPY AND I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO TAKE GOOD CARE OF HER THE WAY I ALWAYS DO BECAUSE OF MY JOB. I NEED SOMEONE TO ADOPT HER INSTEAD OF GIVING HER OUT TO ONE WHO CANNOT,I NEED ONE WHO CAN TAKE CARE OF HER THE WAY I ALWAYS DO. IF YOU CAN TAKE CARE OF HER DO SEND A REPLY AND I WILL EMAIL YOU HER PICTURES.
I HOPE TO READ FROM YOU.

REGARDS,
MS. DOROTHY RIFFERTY.
