I am not sure about you but I always like to keep my eyes and ears open to a great business opportunity. Today, I got one sent to me right here on ActiveRain through the contact system. After reading it, I am sure that I definitely want to contact this person and get started today. Here is what I received today.

(Oh, BTW, since you can not hear the sarcasm in my voice, just know that this is a scam and be careful not to fall for it)

The stupidly amazing fact is that these scams must work, or so many of them wouldn't be out there.

Danny, I'm continually amazed by the numbers of people who fall for such hoaxes. It seems to take a little greed mixed with a lot of stupidity.

Danny - if you aren't going to go for this one .... well, I will be forced to question  your spirit of adventure!  After all - she IS just a girl of 19 --- and motherless --- and now fatherless.  AND her father was quite wealthy.  Geesh!  Do you have no heart, man?!

Good grief - what some people will fall for.  Just look at the composition and grammar!  Gives me the willies all over!

Danny - if you get another one of these, let me know ASAP so I can sign up for this incredible opportunity!! I just haven't received any of these lately...okay...it's been about 2 days...ya got me!!

I too am amazed at those that fall for these scams. They actually believe this is all true, because why would anyone lie about such events? We all need to remember...if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is!
