It's good that they found Chris Julian alive and well, though I don't see how that in any way or form relates to the country of Niger.

Didnt you read the news post? Thats pretty much what the whole article was about.

They found him naked in a river washing his jeans. He told the cops he was running from the Nigerian's who contacted him in part of an internet scam and I guess from what they said he got a $50,000 dollar check in the mail from them.

Quotes:

"The Topanga Canyon resident found a distraught Christian Julian Irwin saying he feared he was being pursued by Nigerians who had contacted him in an Internet scam, sheriff’s Capt. Ray Peavy said."

"According to the Times, Procopio "told him it was clearly a scam — don't be silly." But other friends and relatives told the newspaper that Irwin later received a mysterious $50,000 check and became increasingly concerned."

Come on, thats kinda funny. Sounds like the guy had a nervous break down or was on something after reading it.

Yeah I don't know what he was on but it must have been some good shit. Still was a funny story to read

I liked the part about the people and dogs chasing him. Its cool they found him alive though. I guess that’s all that really matters.

Check this out this is an e-mail I got a couple days ago, probably the same scam:

I am Mrs.Margaret Sutter, from Benin Republic. I am
married to late Mr.lewis Sutter,of blessed memory who workedwith SHELL OIL COMPANY in Benin Republic for twelve yearsbefore he died in the year 2000. We are married for
Fifteenl years without a child. He died after a brief
illness that lasted for only four days. Before his death we
were both devoted Christians. Since his death I too have
been battling with stroke sickness and fibroid problem.

When my late husband was alive, he deposited the sum of
($30.5 MILLION, U.S Dollars ) with The UNION BANK NIGERIA P.L.C , The reason why i contacted you is this,Recently My account officer contacted me and informed me that the bank are trading with my Fund thinking that I will die,that I should try take the fund out of the bank or I find somebody oversea who will assist me so that I will transfer the fund oversea to the persons account so that the bank will not
trade with the fund any longer, I contacted my doctor, and
my doctor told me that I would be Heal/OK in the NEXT four
months that God Will HeaL me.

Though what disturbs me most is my stroke sickness. Having
known my condition I decided to donate part of this fund
15% to any Organization which will help the Poor.I would
like you to use this fund as am going to instructs here
In.I want you to Give Out 15% of this money to Organization
which helps the Poor motherless home with all sincerity to
fund orphanages, Widows, and also propagating the word of
God and to ensure that the society upholds the views and
belief of the God Miracle.

Our Father emphasizes so much on God benevolence. Then you
will have 30% of the fund for your efforts and assistance
to clear the fund from the Bank and transfer it to your
bank account, this is for your own personal use, while 60%
you will open a new account in your country and deposit it
for me, if I am heal I will Use it for Investment, as Ihave
faith that I will be heal as my doctor has informed me.

I took this decision because I don't have any child that
will inherit or Assist me at this point in time, and could
not trust my Late Husband Relatives I don't want a
situation where this money will be used in an Unholy
manner.they sized all my late Husband Belongings, they did
it with my late husband Lawyer. I Taking this bold
decision. I know that our father has the power of death and
Life the beneficent and the most merciful. I don't need any
telephone communication in this regard because of my
health,and all so, because of the presence of my husbands
relatives around me always. I don't want them to know about
this development. With God all things are possible. it Most
handle strictly between me, you and the bank.

As soon as I receive your reply I shall give you the
contact of the Bank in Nigeria where the money was
deposited for safekeeping. I will also issue an order of
authority to the Bank, authorizing them that the said fund
have being willed to you as my Attorney/proxy and the prove
documents of despite related to this transaction will be
forwarded to you for your records and perusal. I want you
to always pray for me.

My happiness is that I lived a true devoted Christian
worthy of emulation. Whosoever, that wants to serve God
must serve himin truth and in fairness. Please always be
prayerful all through your life. Any delay i your reply
will give room in sourcing for anotherdevoted Person for
this same Purpose.

Until I hear from you today unfailingly, my dream will rest
squarely on your shoulders. May the Almighty God continue
to guide and protect us.Please you should reply me with this e-mail To=address,[email protected]

Best regards,

Mrs.Margaret Sutter,
