this little gem right here. for some reason i have been getting a bunch of these lately and this one ranks right up there with the all-time greats.


From: Mrs. Gloria Hans

I am Mrs Gloria Hans

I was married to Dr. Van Hans, who worked with Chevron Texaco Kuwait for twenty years before he died in the year 2004, May be you must have heard about him in the oil firm.We were married for thirty-seven years without a child. He died during one of the war in Iran . He was held hostage and slain to death by protesting youths of the region

Before his death we were both born again Christians. Since his death I decided not to re-marry. When my late husband was alive he deposited the sum of (Five Million U.S.Dollars) with Security company in South Africa Presently, this money is still with the Security company and the management just wrote me as the beneficiary to come forward to receive the money or rather issue a letter of authorization to somebody to receive it on my behalf if I can not come over.

Presently, I'm with my laptop in a hospital where I have been undergoing treatment for cancer of the lungs. I have since lost my ability to talk and my doctors have told me that I have only a few months to live.

It is my last wish to see that this money is invested the proceed at the end of every year distributed among charity organization.

I want a person that is God fearing that will use this money to fund churches, orphanages and widows propagating the word of God and to ensure that the house of God is maintained. The Bible made us to understand that blessed is the hand that giveth. I took this decision because I know that there are a lot of poor people suffering from different kind of disease and nobody to come to their aid.

With God all things are possible. As soon as I receive your reply I shall give you the contact of the bank. I will also issue you a letter of authority that will prove you as the new beneficiary of this fund. You are to help me invest this funds into real estate and stocks. You will be entitled to 10% of every profit you make in a year. </ SPAN>Please assure me that you will act accordingly as I stated herein.

Am presently in the hospital waiting the day that the good Lord will take me. Please do all things possible to make my wish come through
Hoping to hearing from you soon.
Waiting for your reply

Yours Sincerely,
Mother Gloria Hans

one of the things i always wonder about is why these things always seem to come from either nigeria or some some refugee in south africa ,usually from zimbabwe, who just happens to have internet access at their refugee camp.


this lady's story at least had a bit of a slant to it and wasn't the usual "my husband died violently in zimbabwe but amazingly right before it happened he was able to sell all his farm equipment for $7 million US but since my eleven crippled children and i are refugees we can't get to the money" tearful plea.

That's the funniest scam email I've ever read, and I get tons. I sort of wish I'd saved some of them now instead of deleting them all!

I get tons offering to enlarge my penis as well, the funniest thing about them is the subject lines... I'll edit this post with some, if I remember :lol:
