Lucky me
Just today, and at this early morning hour, I have already received messages from the likes of: Professor Charles Soludo, General Peter Olu, The Fondation of France, (they write fondation- not foundation) Barrister Daniel, Barrister Collins Obi, and some others. All of them offering grants, inheritance, business proposals, lottery winnings. I must be the luckiest man in the world,... or .. are you?

I feel lucky, blessed with the attention of so many wonderful persons, all of them looking forward to make my life better. It would be greedy on my part not to share. I have plenty, and much more coming in as the day advances. Why not share? Send me your email address and I will forward this blessings to you.
You are just one email away from a different, fuller life. Aren't you excited?

Important Message From RBC Royal Bank...

Dear Customer:

Due to the recent update of our servers, we have issued this warning message....

Usually, it starts in that tune and goes in crescendo as we travel down reading the message. To our surprise, that account we have with Royal Bank...(we can't remember when we opened it, how much is in there or where in earth is the Royal Bank) is compromised now. We don't have access to our money and unless We act fast, there will be nothing left soon. So, depending on the kind of day We are having, We either utter a couple of high resounding words and erase the email, or have a laugh and continue to the next one after reporting another attempt to part us from our real money.

Despite the fact that the majority of internet users are very literate, informed guys and gals of today, the trend is increasing; the variations of the Nigerian Scam are now infinite, taking the shape of lottery winnings, business proposals, offers for employment, charity requests and many others.

Authorities on the countries this wannabe scammers reside are basically unable to arrest them even though they know who and where they are. The Law does not provide elements to condemn internet criminals. Lately an american TV show has been exposing some of them through self funded investigation and research. A sad finding.. the victim's count is high.

Although not everybody will ever have the same level of information, this is a hard hit to those who fall into the hands of the scammers. The only possibility we have against them is to protect ourselves, to be aware at all times and tell the world.

I have made my mission to educate everyone in my family about it. All of us should do the same.



I'm evaluating a multi-media course on blogging from the folks at Simpleology. For a while, they're letting you snag it for free if you post about it on your blog.

It covers:

  • The best blogging techniques.
  • How to get traffic to your blog.
  • How to turn your blog into money.

I'll let you know what I think once I've had a chance to check it out. Meanwhile, go grab yours while it's still free.
