Hope you have a great time !!!! but make sure all the moneys tax free and you save some in your sock for a taxi ride back to your cabin on the luxury cruise ship you will hire to live on when you get the money?{ beware of greeks bearing gifts} old donkeyman saying today update beware of anyone bearing gifts scammers are everywhere .

what a laugh, ! some people must fall for, or they would not do it, most of this comes from Nigeria, Ghana and the Ivory Coast areas, a common one is an African Girl will send an EMAIL, showing very nice Photos of a very attractive Girl, Stating she is in a Refugee Camp in Sierra Leone, after escaping from Somalia or similar place, after her Parents were murdered, she managed to rescue all the money and put it in a secure place, she needs a man here to help her transfer the funds, offers you a few million Dollars for help, if u chat to them long enough it gets around to , i need your Bank details, every EMAIL sends more Photos, sometimes they forget what Photos have been sent, the next ones are a different Girl, most are men doing this posing as Girls,i was getting so many of these Emails, so one day i decided to play a game, told them i was a Lottery Winner here, had so much money it was impossible to spend it, well the EMAILS that followed were many, i said i was looking for an African Girl Friend, More Photos followed, told her i was not sure she was the one, well i could write a book on the conversations, this went on for weeks, then i said i was off to Italy to see my Super Yacht being launched, and ignored her, or him ? for two weeks, so many moreEMAILS arrived, eventuall i got bored with it, told her i met a prettier African Girl at the Launching Party, whos Father was President of A Bank where she lived, well she went nuts, saying bad things about that Bank, told me i was being conned by the new Girl, it passed the time and was a laugh, i have a Nigerian Friend here, He told me a few men rent a room and send Emails all day posing as Girls, they must make money or would not do it. what a world we live in.

Cockney rhyming slang alone: Would have you away to the Pinker parts of the MN.
