My Friend Shin Yuu . . .

LLOOOLLLL! He wants to send us money because our economy is getting better? Mr. Shin Yuu, please send your donation directly to the US Treasury! They need all the help they can get!

Attn:

My name is MR.SHIN YUU,a contractor from Japan.The statistics shows that the Economy of your country is getting better and will be more profitable in few years to come. I am interested to invest in your country through you. I am in HONG KONG NOW with the Sum of Sixteen Million,five Hundred Thousand US Dollars ($16,500.000.00) that I would like to invest in your country if possible?

I made this money through a contract awarded to me by the ministry during the relocation of OSAKA AIRPORT,and I am not safe if I go back to Japan because I did not finish the contract. I hope you can understand my situation and assist me to invest this money properly as this is my only hope.
Please kindly get back to me as soon as possible.

Best regards,
MR. SHIN YUU

  1. *snort*

    not to mention that he fairly unambiguously implies that he made off with Japanese government funds: “I am not safe if I go back to Japan because I did not finish the contract.”

    Sounds like a very trustworthy fellow!

  2. Yeah as if….

    Seriously how vain can they be? Sending out the most stupid email on earth and expecting people to actually fall for it?!?!??!

    16.5 Million USD? Put them in a bank in switzerland Mr. Yuu and live from it’s annual profits, rather than waste ur time and send stupid emails…

  5. Yeh, Daggero, another effective demonstration. Sorry, every now and then a little cynicism leaks through.

  6. Hey all,

    I answered Mr. Shin Yuu’s email request and we became best friends. The money will soon be deposited in a London account in my name. Too bad you guys didn’t believe in my friend, the honorable Mr. Yuu.

  7. So your new best friend now has your bank account number, Mike, so he can transfer you the money? Good luck with that, buddy.

  8. Not yet. I was hoping to go to London soon and pick up a big sack of cash. I think Mr. Yuu got tired of my constant screw ups in getting him my bank information. I’ll have to send him a note, see how he’s doing.
