Today the Nigerian scam got a little original. First sentences: "Pardon me for contacting you through this medium and in this manner without any prior introduction. This is due to circumstances beyond my control. I had to bribe the prison attendants to secretly allow me open an email address from the computer in their office." Why the attendants have a computer in their office is left unexplained.
