Apparently we need to click on the link to her email to find out what she wants, and to see the photos. I was going to, but now that I found out I'm not the only one my feelings are hurt, so I've changed my mind.

For me it's a good proof that the Moderators did a really good job in sorting the spammers from other users, we didn't have any spammers in a long time (knock on wood, thump thump) - but since they can't get your information from the forum - they try another direction...

I don't think there is an automated way to post a private message.
That means that a human typed at least part of a name and clicked on a name. Then copied/pasted the message and hit sent.
Considering that there are 43852 people in our community it seems like a lot of work for little or no gain. (unless they automated the process)

I get caught going through a red light and the cop gives me three choices to pay my misdeeds..

1. Pay cash
2. 10 hours of public labor
3. Walk through town with the most ugliest girl in town

So I pick walking through town with the girl and awhile we're walking through town, I see you coming toward us with the most beautiful girl hanging on your arm and we stop and I ask you where you picked up the girl, oh her, she ran a red light.....

Just for you guys, I took one for the team.
I created a new email address and responded to Helen's request.

Here is her reply (with pictures)...

Helen Morgan
7:43 AM (46 minutes ago)

to me

MY DEAR FRIEND,

How are you today? I like to be open, i am a woman that have seen life, i have been in the social circle for many years, It really does not matter one's age, color or achievement, what matters in our life is nothing but Care and expression, this is the most important thing in life, to me the most beautiful thing created by God is never seen, only felt in the heart, I have been hardworking all my life, i must think of something better, to enjoy my life and probably have a family ,maybe relocate and start investing in other things, Anyway i like to tell you little about me, My name Helen Morgan, am from France , i was born in France, And i left France at Age the of 10 so i can't even speak French, Am working as a Senior Audit/banker in Islamic Bank of Britain Plc United Kingdom, I lost my only daughter at age of 4 years. I was married but my Ex Husband got married to another woman, which caused our divorce, but is OK, since he accused me of been so busy with my work and the bank and its accounting/auditing, that i was not having time for him, but he refused to understand that i was pursing a goal, i told him that soon i would resign and we will have enough time for each other but he was impatient, But is over between us, I am happy alone because I have everything i need, This is why I think of relocating to your country to get into investment and maybe own a small company which i can be able to manage Enough of myself, would you tell me more about yourself too???? I like to know you better, what you really do and your position in your work, your marital status and your country of origin

I love to hear from you soon

Your Welcome.

Thank you for the kind email. You asked about my marital status. I've been married to my first wife for 17 years, and my second for 12. I've been thinking of adding a third to help them with the housework and caring for the children. Does that sound like something you'd be interested in?

Dear Helen,
Oh, thank you so much for contacting me, the timing was coincidental or should I say Divine as my life has just come to an analogous crossroad and I feel that the timing is spot-on. After reading your well written letter I couldn’t help being besotted and now pinching myself, is this really real, do I really have another chance in Life..
Your story is very similar to mine, when it comes to a relationship, isn’t it depressing when you just made it to a point when you’re ready to step down and enjoy life, where money is hardly an object, but up to now I had no one to share it with. A few years ago I had only a year or so before I could retire at an early age (45). Being a workaholic for way too long took a toll on my only wife of 20 years, it was so close but so far away at the time. Since our relation has ended, I haven’t been in the social circle at all, but if we can get together that will all change. The property that I have in Northern Maryland, only a few hours from the East Coast, is quite large for this area, 120 acres of rolling woodland with a 12 room house, some call it a mansion, but I don’t think it’s a mansion till they have 20 rooms or more. Plus many horses and horse barns in another 50 acre area, I have hired servants that take care of everything, so there is almost nothing that we would need to work, we can just take long walks or horseback riding when we’re not traveling, oh and I love to cook.
I would definitely love to know more about you and I think I have the means to bring you over here within the next month or so if your passport paper work is up to date and then we can make additional banking decisions, (I just ran in front of a mirror and there’s a smile there after quite a long time)

So for now,
Your Loving Friend

I have a reply from my dear friend Helen...
I love the line "died as a result of gun shorts"

My dear
I must thank you once again for your humble reply to me. I really appreciate it so much and i am very happy to read from you. You see, with your response, i am convinced that the future has a special place for us, only if we could trust each other, work inline and keep an open mind with each other.

Like i told you earlier, i was looking forward to accomplishing a particular mission, which my ''ex'' husband was so blind to see that made him not to exercise patience for me. I think with the little you have told me about you, it would be very wise to disclose this secret to you and also tell you my aim and plan. Because it would be of mutual benefit to us and maybe you could be the right person to utilize the opportunity with me, because i believe our knowing each other is for a reason.

Remember i told you i am the Chief Auditor of my bank and also the Chief of the International Relation Foreign Remittance Unit. Prior to my position here at my bank, i have the opportunity to loot out some amount of money of a deceased customer, whose autopsy result showed that he died as a result of gun shorts by unknown gunmen. I was his account officer before he died and from the account opening records, he did not indicate anybody as his beneficiary next of kin. Since 2008 to date, nobody has come forward as his beneficiary next of kin to administer the fund. The amount in question is the total sum of $:14.500,000. (Fourteen Million Five Hundred Thousand USD).

I can provide all the required legal papers from the British Court to present you as the legal beneficiary to these funds if you would accept to partner with me in this deal. A lot of abandoned money lay around in this bank as a result of abandoned bank accounts, stock holdings, unclaimed life insurance pay-outs and forgotten pension benefits. I will definitely give you comprehensive details on how we would achieve this legally, without going against the laws of the country. Once you reply to me indicating your interest to work with me. I have worked with the bank for several years and have taken time to study the British inheritance claims procedures. I would appreciate it if you would treat this issue with every bit of confidentiality and maturity, putting my integrity foremost, because i wouldn't need any mistakes or regrets. I assure you that you will never regret it if you would take the bold step to partner with me in this deal. It would be wise if we make every effort not to loose this golden opportunity. This happens in every bank around the world, even in your own country, but people outside the banking industry do not know this.

and

Dear Helen,
It is such a pleasure to hear from you again so quickly, I was afraid I wouldn’t hear from you for a few days, don’t really know why, but just had the feeling of being picked up and floating, I don’t want to lose those sensations

So back to business on hand, sorry to hear about your client, I had a late uncle that had his shorts blown out by his wife, what scene that was.

As for the exchange of information, I will gladly do that here and I’ll even pick out a nice picnic spot down by the river, my property sits high above the river about a hundred foot cliff to the rocky stream bottom, which is a great place to be this time of the year – Halloween – there are old fables of lovers going over hand in hand, but we installed a small railing to prevent any accidental falls.

As for the amount of money, 14.5 million is not what I’m after at all, you have written me a letter and I am smitten for a Lot of Love. That amount of money for this area that is an average yearly salary, so you can imagine my net worth, which I will share with you when you get here to the US. I am also prepared to hire one of my friends to fly Lear Jet and we will come over to pick you up and bring you to our secret resort by the river, just make sure your passport is up to date and legal.

The only stipulation is our Tradition and I will try to explain, it is rather confusing….

Prior to being remarried or prior to engaging in a relationship we need the blessings of the following people,
The Local Priest (we need his blessings for a fruitful and plentiful life), my Parents, my Servants (to assure we had no relationship between us), my Lawyer (for all the legalities) and my Doctor (to make sure none of us have any infectious disease that could spread to our children and children’s children) and a few next door neighbors which are my guardian’s, keeping our property safe and using our river picnic grounds, they are great guy’s personally but they are Gang Leaders and it is very polite to say Yes Sir No Sir when speaking with them.

With all my infectious Love,
Fred Garvin

I understand your want for a little nest egg for yourself, but as indicated before, I have plenty for the both of us. None the less, I have instructed my CFO to let his deputies department take care of that bank business so that we can just avail ourselves in planning our future together.
Rest assured, those 37 people will certainly keep your secret.

I just loved how you used the words' ...our future,family...'. With your genes and my money we will make lots of beautiful babies. It shall be so wonderful having another dozen children. There might be some jealousy but I'm sure that if we present an united front that we''ll be able to nip that in the bud. We'll just have to make sure that the oldest triplets , Felicia, Francine and Philippe, are on their meds and there shouldn't be any issue.

Soon, very soon I hope, you'll be in my sweet embrace while I serenade you.

your soon to be husband

PS: Do provide the necessary certified medical statements about your mental and physical health as quickly as possible so that my attorney can start drawing up the necessary paperwork. I want us to be wed as soon as possible once you arrive.

My Dearest Love Helen,

I find myself in a precarious position. This has never happened to me before.

I am smitten by you. I have lust in my heart for you. I find myself unable to function properly in my daily activities due to the thoughts I have.

I have chosen to give up all material items in the pursuit of my one true love, yes, Helen, you make me want to leave all of my worldly possessions to the needy, so that we can spend all of our remaining days together. I have begun the process of divesting myself of all monetary assets immediately. There are several charities that will benefit greatly.

As I no longer have the means, please send me a plane ticket so that I can be with you. Together our love will sustain us forever.

Counting the hours until we are together.

Great tune! I believe it was banned from the airwaves back then so one had to go out and buy the 45! Along with My-Ding-A-Ling by Chuck Berry! Look what they get away with now....

So, My Dearest Helen didn't reply since her plea of secrecy.

I used Peter De Vlieger's reply...

Dearest Helen,

I understand your want for a little nest egg for yourself, but as indicated before, I have plenty for the both of us. None the less, I have instructed my CFO to let his deputies department take care of that bank business so that we can just avail ourselves in planning our future together.
Rest assured, those 37 people will certainly keep your secret.

I just loved how you used the words' ...our future,family...'. With your genes and my money we will make lots of beautiful babies. It shall be so wonderful having another dozen children. There might be some jealousy but I'm sure that if we present an united front that we''ll be able to nip that in the bud. We'll just have to make sure that the oldest triplets , Felicia, Francine and Philippe, are on their meds and there shouldn't be any issue.

Soon, very soon I hope, you'll be in my sweet embrace while I serenade you.

your soon to be husband

PS: Do provide the necessary certified medical statements about your mental and physical health as quickly as possible so that my attorney can start drawing up the necessary paperwork. I want us to be wed as soon as possible once you arrive.

I will post a copy of her papers as soon as I get them...

Sadly, nothing since the nineteenth of October.

At first I feared, and now I believe, my Dear Helen, a soul mate, a true love, is a dream turned nightmare.
Her demise surly is unseemly, unbefitting and indecorous.

I simply must find a path back to normalcy, no matter the level of agony.

Condolences and good luck, my friend. You are indeed keeping a brave face, or, as the Brits would say, a stiff upper lip.

Maybe Helen has a sister.

If you receive an email from a scammer, and don’t have time for all of this fun, you can forward it to this bot - This AI Bot That Messes With Email Scammers As Long As Possible Is Brilliant - Digg
i still think that the group composing responses is way more fun.

Woow Mr Rick, In return for 17000,000, what can she give you???
