All emails from Nigeria should be regarded as scams,Not being racist but I worked in a Bank for 17 years and Nigerians must be the most dishonest and untrusty worthy people in the World.

Thank you Masie !blush!

I have to admit that I didn't write my original post correctly, I wanted to get a warning up asap.

I should have said it was a scam and if anyone had Tammie's phone number to call or text and warn her that her email had been hacked.

Thanks again babes !love!

I've run a scan and my Norton hasn't found anything.

No model on Earth would write with this formality, eg

"I want you to assist me urgently with a loan of $2,500 to sort-out my hotel bills and to get myself back home. I have spoken to the embassy here but they are not responding to the matter .........

and why in US Dollars?

No, take it from me, it's a scammer!LOL

Nigeria is known for its scamming & its probably their biggest industry, not only do they con people this way but also through ads on Gumtree, Friday ads etc where they ask for money transfers for small items like laptops,Playstation 3 etc. Do like Pumpkin said scan your computer well as they have seen enough on your hard drive to enable them to make their scam personal.

Yes, it does appear be the case that one half of Nigeria are hard working honest folk whilst the other half are bent as nails, mind you if it wasn't for the vast amount of extrememly thick greedy white folk that exist then they'd have noone to scam.
