SCAM- BITES

As i jot these lines down am a disillusioned man.
one day on reaching office, i opened my e-mail in my in box before anything else.I had a fresh message from one 'Favour Mathew'.
according to the message she is a 24 yr old living in an IDP in Dakar Senegal due to the civil war going on in Liberia.
her parents Dr Mathew Toure was and advise to the ousted president now being tried for war crimes by the ICC, together with her mum and siblings were harked to death. she is the only survivor.
as i read on she said having gone through my profile on face book, she was greatly interested in me and wanted us to build a deep mutual relation ship.at this my heart skipped.
Imagining life in an IDP for such a beauty was very touching. immediately i sent a postie response and guess what she replied as fast as she could.
Favour is a beautiful girl, she is a nice story teller, a very passionate one.
In her next reply she requested me to be silent forever about her plight and the intentions to transfer the money which her farther left in the bank for her but she could not access it as they are not allowed to have money. She asked me to send her my account number so she can transfer the funds to it and the i may process her travel documents to Uganda.
Before this i had heard of fraud stars 'scam bites' i decided to find out the true source of the mails. It was not Dakar. she was in Abuja Nigeria, black listed by Google as a '419'.
I laughed out loud (cynically) and every one stared at me. I had survived. survived to be looted.
Watch out for such easy come easy go.
This makes you fail to tell who genuinely needs help and who is a cheat.
