THE LADS COME TO SPRINGFIELD

updated August 23

"Bart Simpson" (Kindly Contributor from Quebec) vs. "Jame Peter Ja". Bart aims to top the Kindly Contributor from the Philippines who got $3 FROM a scammer. (See Dumbest Criminal on the Planet.) Bart's aiming for $5!

This may be the same "Jame" whom Ilichy is driving to distraction (wherever that is) - different phone number, same e-mail address. "Jame" and his helper "Mr. van der Bosch" are trying hard to get Bart to board a plane with $18,000 cash and fly to Amsterdam and an uncertain fate. If he can't make the flight, they want him to send the money by Western Union to a Mr. Martin Wright and a Mr. Leslie Edgar in Holland.

Maybe they're just amusing themselves, or maybe they don't grasp that Bart is a two-dimensional 10-year old boy whose IQ exceeds the multiple of theirs. This is the same 'duo' (who knows) trying to scam Ilichy Miraczky and Lady Agatha Bristol, so far - and forever - without success.

Thank for your message. I'll be glad helping you out with this task. Tell me how I could be of any assistance ! I was an orphan myself and your cause touch me deeply. I am a Candian resident.

Dear Simpson,

Thanks for your reply.

It is imperotive for me to remind that the earlier we conclude this deal the better for us, so there is no need for us to be wasting our time in exchanging mails.

Are you ready to go to Amsterdam for the collection of the consignment on mybehalf? If you are ready let me know so that i can forward to you the co-ordinates of the security company, for you to call them and arrnage when you wil be there.

Waiting to read or hear from you.

Jame.

bart: dude let's help the orphans

My dearest Ja !

I totally agree with that there's no need to exchange mail regarding your little predicament. After all it's only a couple of million dollars we're talking about.

Like I told you in my previous mail I'm very interested in conducting this deal and not electricity. I can manage to go to Hamsterdance. But before I plan any travel I think you should brief me more deeply on what I am to do and what I'll need in order to get this trunk of yours.

You mention in your previous mail that I could distribute the money to the orphenage of my choices. Here in Quebec we got a orphenage for young girls (18-22) that are badly in need of this money. They are very poor an in addition they have no money at all ! They are soooooo poor that they can barely afford to wear any clothings !

Once I get the money I'll make contact with either the Salvation Army or Victoria's Secret for them to get decent clothings.

There is also a small matter I want to settle right away, my first name is Bart, not Simpson and here in Quebec it's considered rude to call someone by their last name.

So let me know what I should do next.

Yours in urgency

Bartolomew "Bart" Simpson

bart: what's up

Mister Ja.

I tought this transaction needed to be completed fast. I'm surprise by not having a answer from you....

See ya

Bartolomew "Bart" Simpson

bart: all right be that way

Mister Ja

This letter is to mention to you that I've got a new business partnership offer from someone else in Nigeria. Due to the lack of response on your behalf I will conduct business with the other person.

Bart

jame: too illegit to quit

I have a big one !!! James respond to my last email ... I think he can't stand a other fellow scammer getting money from me instead of him ... Here we go again ... :)

bart: def jam to jame

Mister Ja !!

What a surprise earing from you ...

I thought you had already departed for a far far away galaxy. Mr. Ja I'm a bit ashame to tell you this, but I can't receive or give a phone call ... You see I'm deaf and mute. This brings me great sadness ! When I was young, and since I was an orphan, my parent could barely buy some food so they had no money to get me treated in a good hospital. So now I have to deal with this condition !

Imagine if I would to be blind !! I would have to train my dog to type for me !!!

Down to business, I'm a very pachent man, I just thought you had either dropped me or kicked the bucket. What do you mean by not trusting anyone ? Does that include or exclude you ? Don't be afraid I'm a very honest person. You can put your mind at rest we're gonna see this transaction happen.

So what I would like from you is to get the proper documents scanned and sent to me in attachement (You mentioned Pepers in your mail, I hope you meant papers 'cause sending me pepers will be a bit difficult in a email). You can also give my coordinates to the guy in Hamsterdance so he will be able to contact me.

Bart.

p.s Please tell me more about you. What kind of treatments are you receiving ? Are you in a good Hospital in Ghana ? Anything I could do for you ?

From Bart (I think this guy is BLIND !!!)

: My very sick JA !

Jame(s) I think your doctor is wrong !! You must have an eye cancer since you don't seem to read very well. My poor lad I would not like to be in your situation .... Like I told you in my other mail, I'm mute (I cannot speak a word) so I cannot call this guy at the security company. He'll have to contact me via email.

Peter...Pan... I'm able to travel all by my self, there is no problem with this. But before I even consider to travel to Hamsterdance I'll need to have all the papers scanned for me in order to see that the deal is ok. Is it also possible to attach in your next email a photo of yourself. I would like to see with whom I'm dealing with.

Is there anything I can send you to the hospital ? I was thinking maybe of Maple Syrup or even Poutine !! Poutine is very good, in fact you can eat that only in Quebec. It's made with french fry, cheese and gravy. It's very tasty. I could put some in a ziplock bag and ship it to you. Anyway just tell me if you need something after all we are now business partner !!

Yours truly in tragedy (this word always remember me of the BeeGees)

Hi my good friend JA !

No offense taken. I'm sorry also if I hurt your feelings. Please forgive me it won't happen again.

I'll wait for the documents. When do you think I'll have to travel to Hamsterdance ? I cannot leave on a day notice. I'll need time to get ready to go there. So let me know when I should be going there.

You said that you have two companies in Africa, may I ask what kind of business you're doing over there ? How is the cancer doing ? Still hanging in there ?

Have a nice day.

Bart

p.s: Don't forget the picture please. Since I can't hear you're voice, seeing your face will bring as much joy than hearing you over the phone. One last thing, do you know the country Sierra Leone ? I am having a business proposition with Mr Kabila over there about some gold he want to invest.

bart: thankful orphans

Hey Dude !

I was very happy receiving your email. Sorry if I did not answer it right away. I had to leave for the weekend. I went to the orphanage I was talking to you about in my second email. I just had to bring to good news to those poor girls! It was a relief for them knowing they would get such an amount ! To thank me they relieved the pressure in me if you know what I mean. We also had a festival over the weekend, it's call "Muff Diving" Contest. It's very fun all the girls had fun and enjoyed themselves !

Jame, in my last email I was asking you about Sierra Leone ? I'm about to go there to complete another transaction with a fellow African. Maybe I could use some tips about Africa. Is there any Pizza Hut ? McDonald's ? Anywhere a man can go to release some pressure ?

Hope your feeling better my good friend. Please send a PICTURE of you if it's not to much to ask. And I've never heard of the Security company yet. Do they have a Web Page I could write to them ? What was the name of the guy over there ?

Hoplesly devoted to you ...

JAME: TRIPE - IT'S NOT JUST FOR BREAKFAST ANYMORE

We got a new guy in ... I wonder what happened to Collin White ....

DEAR GOOD FRIEND,

I GOT YOUR MESSAGE AND I WAS HAPPY YOU WERE ABLE TO GO AND SEE THOSE CHILDERN.(orphanage)

MAY THE GOOD LORD BLESS YOU AND PROVIDE FOR YOU.

NOW AS REGARD YOUR TRIPE TO Sierra Leone ,WHAT IS IT ALL ABOUT IF I MAY ASK!! I HAVE BEEN THERE BEFOR AND I KNOW HOW THINGS WORK, THUS WHAT KIND OF BUSNIESS IS IT? MAY BE I CAN GIVE YOU SOME TIPS.

THEY CAN BE FUNY THERE AT TIME I LOST (EIGHTY THOUSND DOLLAS)SOME TIME THREE YEAR AGO, THOUGH I SUCCEDID IN WHAT I WENT FOR, I GUESS IS PART OF IT(EXPRENCE).

THUS I WISH YOU All THE BEST BUT LET ME KNOW THE KIND OF TRANSACTION.

SO LIKE I SAID I WILL SEND TO YOU THE DOCUMENT BE FOR THE WEEK RUNS OUT AND MAKE SURE THE SECURITY COMPANY CONTACT YOU.

JAME PETER

BART: GHANA DO SOME BUSINESS ELSEWHERE

Hi !

Those young girls were also very happy !

This business in Sierra Leone is about getting some gold out of the country and bringing it to Canada for investment. It is a very good opportunity and I'm gonna make a lot of money out of it.

The person I am dealing with is very trustworthy as he is a Doctor and his father was brutally killed !

Maybe when I go to Sierra Leone I could make a hop to Ghana and see you in the hospital ? I think it would be a great idea !

May to good Lord be with you !

BART: DO YOU WANT TO SCAM ME USING WESTERN UNION? OR MORE DIRECTLY?

Date: 14 Aug 2002, 07:04:53 AM

Hi Ja my good friend !

I've finally heard from the security company. I wonder what happen to Mr. Collins White ? Did he loose is job ? 'Cause in a previous mail you told me to contact him. Mr Van Der Bosch also asked for tax clearing money. He tell me that the amount is US 11,818. Do you want to transfer me the money via Western Union or do you want to have your bank wire it into my account directly ? I will wait your instruction for this matter.

For the gold in Sierra Leone, it is in a clearing house. I think it is very safe because the guy told me he's gonna take care HIMSELF of my security.

Mr Van Der Bosch wants to meet me on the 16 of august but I won't be able to be in Amsterdam before the 23rd. He also ask me for the consignment certificate. Where is this certificate ??

Good Day

Bart

BART: PLANNING MY FLIGHT

Good day Mr Van Der Bosch

I've received and well understood your email. I've just wrote to Mr. Peter and told him about the taxes. I'm waiting for his money before I can go to Amsterdam. One thing is sure, it's that I cannot go there before the 23rd. Is it a problem for you ? I'll keep you inform of my flight schedule.

Thank you for your offer of waiting for me at the airport. I will need a picture of the person who is going to wait for me.

As soon as I receive Mr Peter's money I'll have my bank do a wire transfer to your corporate account so you can release the consignment to me.

Have a nice day

Bart.

JAME: YES, WE'RE SCAMMING YOU BUT WE'LL PAY YOU BACK, HONEST

JAME PETER

NB; I HAVE A PROBLEM WITH "WEBSET" THUS MAY BE I WILL BE SENDING YOU THE ATTACHMENT THROUGH YAHOO.MAIL.

BART: SHOW ME THE MONEY

Hi, how is going the treatment ?

Mr James, how do you expect me to meet the securtity company today if you haven't sent me the certificate yet ? And I've send an email to the guy at the security company and did not have an answer yet. If you want my opinion, this guy is not very serious in his business.

I've asked him for his corporate bank account in order to get the money transfer and he did not gave it to me. He told I need to bring the money cash or send it Western Union to a person I've never heard of. Who do he think I am ? a complete idiot ? I won't send him money before a have:

1- The certificate of deposit
2- A real good proof that the money is there
3- I've repeatedly asked for a photo from you and you never acknolewdge my request. But then again you ask me for $11,000. I don't know you, you will have to show me you are a trusty person.
4- I can delay my travel to sierra leone, but the guy over there means real business. You know what ? I asked him for a proof that he was serious in his business, you know what he did ? He sent me in a "wish you well" card with $5US signed by his own hand. It's not much compared to what I have to pay the clearing house to get the gold but I figure that if this guy is getting the trouble to get a card, put $5 in it and sent it to me by DHL that he REALLY mean business.

So my very good friend Mr James, can you show me that you are really serious in this business ? I'm willing to put some money in the venture but I need to be re-assuured a bit.

By the way I can be in Amsterdam next friday. But things better start to move if you want me to plan my trip

Your's truly and always your friend

Hi again ! :)

By the way I got the money secured for the transaction. I'm going to bring $18,000US just in case we run into more fees.

What do you think ? is it enough ?

You did not mention anything about a proof of your seriousness in the transaction. I'm putting a lot of dough in there. Are you willing to do the same thing that my business partner in Sierra Leone did ? After all $5US in a card is a very small thing for you.

Tell me how you want to ship it and i'll send my adress to you.

BART TO JAME: SOME STRANGE GOINGS-ON

Hi my very good friend and trusted business associate !

I know you have sent me a power of attorney and a certificate of deposit. But you know today every body can do that with a computer. I'm not asking for a very big proof, just a card with $5US in it ... it's not much, everybody has that kind of money. But to me it will proove that you are an honest person and are very serious.

You know, those guys are asking me to send nearly $12,000US to Amsterdam by Western Union to a guy I've never heard of... I asked them their corporate account in order to get the money prepared and to have it transfer from my bank to their bank but they totally ignore my request.. strange way of doing business. All I have is a scanned document ... I think that you could put my mind at rest by showing me your good will.

You told me the other day that you would send a picture of the money while it was being transfered ... I've received nothing yet, and the picture of your wife did not arrived correctly. So in my humble opinion, asking for $5US in a card and have it shipped by DHL is nothing compared to the demurage I have to pay ! And by the way don't be afraid my friend I will give it back to you as soon as we meet.

I'm sure you understand me very well.

Send the card to :

Bart Simpson
(gave Canadian address)

Be in touch and may the good lord be with you ! Also, I have a reservation with British Airways for friday the 23rd .. but no card, no travel

BART TO BOSCH: WHAT'S THIS FUNNY STUFF?

Mr Bosch, like I told you in my previous email, I can't be in Amsterdam before the 23rd of this month.

I will not send money by Western Union to a person I don't know. I've asked you for your corporate account detail in order to get the money transfered from my bank. I'm still waiting for that information. And I don't understand why you're telling me that the demurage is $500 per day, on the certificate I have it is written $100 per day.

How long have you been doing business ? First I got my certificate of deposit with a BIG mistake in the spelling of my name, and now you are making a mistake with the amount of demurage ... And who are those guys your asking me to send money to ? If I send Western Union it's going to be to your company name. But frankly I prefer bank transfer.

Have a nice day

Bart

JAME: I CAN'T FIND THE PICTURE OF THE MONEY

MY GOOD FRIEND
I GOT YOUR MESSAGE AND I QUIET UNDERSTAND YOU!
BEFOR THE END OF THE WEEK I WILL SEND TO YOU WHAT YOU HAVE REQUESTED AND ANOTHER THING THE PHOTO I SAID I WAS GOING TO SHOW TO YOU THAT IS THE PHOTO OF THE BOX, I MUST TELL YOU MY FRIEND I HAVE LOOKING EVER WERE FOR IT I CAN"T FIND IT I HAVE TRYED TO LOOK IN MY SAFE AND I DON" UNDERSTAND HOW I KEEPT IT BUT I KNOW IS SOME WERE AROUND MY FILE ANY WAY IS NOT OFF ANY IMPORTANCE I JUST WANTED YOU TO SEE HOW THE BOX LOOKS LIKE! AND AS FOR THE PHOTO(ME MY WIFE AND MY LAST DUAGHTER) I SEND TO YOU AND DID NOT APPAER WELL I WILL TRY AND SEND IT AGAIN.

THANK YOU ONCE AGAIN AND MAY THE GOOD LORD BLESS YOU.

BART: SEND ME $5

thank you my good friend I always knew I could trust and count on you !

Be sure to send me the tracking number when you have sent the card with the $5US in it.

BART TO BOSCH: DETAILS, DETAILS

Hi,

I've just received your email. It's ok I'm gonna bring proof of identity with me (passport and driver licence).

I've got airplane reservation for the 23rd of August. But like I told you before, I am waiting for a package from Mister James Peter. As soon as the package arrive here I'm leaving for Amsterdam. I know that demurage fee will be a bit higher but it's ok.

By the way I've asked you several times for your corporate bank account in order to have the demorage fee wired to you but you keep ignoring the question I don't like carrying that much money on me... Like you said in your previous message "TIME IS THE ESSENCE" so rush me that info as soon as you get the email. I also asked for a picture of the person meeting me at the airport, still no answer from your part ... please send the PICTURE.

Plane reservation has been made for Friday but I can delay them... so send me the picture and info on your bank account.

Have a nice day

Bart

BOSCH TO BART: LET'S HAVE SOME FUN BUT FIRST THE MONEY

Hi Bart,
Thank you for your prompt response, it shows you value time and I am very much prepare to assist you if you give me your full cooperation, by complying with my instructions and you will be very happy at the end, MY WORD IS MY BOND.

As regards your question to have our corporate bank account, be informed that this clearance charge is a mandatory fee made payable to the Dutch Custom Authority for the clearance of your consignment,this fee is not for us, is for the Dutch Custom, as such it is unethical and unprofessional for you to pay the charges into our corporate bank account, because the fee does not belong to us and it is not going into our bank account, we might be penalised for it if we forward our account for you to make the custom clearance charges into, the only alternative is for you to send the charges via WESTERN UNION MONEY TRANSFER with our Account officers name i earlier forwarded to you and as soon as the payment has been effected, e-mail me the money transfer control numbers and the sender's name, so when you are coming down to Amsterdam you will not need to bring much money again, i sincerely believe that this option is the best and most relibale, you don't have anything to be afraid of, as our company is a reputable company and the satisfaction of our client is our number one priority.

Take note that the official meeting you at the airport will be carrying a placard boldly written BART, i.e. your name, you just walk up to him and introduce yourself to him and he will bring you to the office and also the hotel that has been specially reserved for you, that is the way our company operate.

Be advised that the plane reservation made for Friday for you, don't delay it, make sure you travel on the Friday, so that we will conclude all the process immediately and by Saturday I will have enough time to take you round Amsterdam Red Light District.

Bart I wish to reassure you once more that you will have a nice time in Amsterdam, just follow my instruction by sending this charges via WEstern Union Money Transfer to reduce the risk of carrying large money and forwarding your flight/arrival schedule immediately. Once again MY WORD IS MY BOND.

I await your immediate response in the positive direction.
Yours truly,
mr. Van DEr Bosch
Director of Operations

BART TO BOSCH: BRINGING MONEY ORDER

Hi Mr Bosch.

Thank you for your rapid reponse ! Ok what I will do in order not to carry a large sum of money with me is to have a money order prepared for the Dutch Custom.

Thank you for the reservation. Can you tell me the name of the hotel I'm going to stay at ? I will visit their web page to see where I'm going to sleep.

Like I told you in my previous email, as soon as Mr Peter parcel comes in I'm out to Amsterdam.

So you'll hear from me when I received the parcel. I'll confirm by email my flight number and time of arrival.

Good day

Bart

BOSCH TO BART: CASH ONLY AND DON'T WASTE MY TIME

Bart,
Your e-mail refers.
Please be informed that the Dutch Custom clearance charge are normally paid CASH, not by Money order, cheques etc. You either come with the money CASH or nothing else, this will be my final e-mail message to you until i received your flight/arrival schedule in Amsterdam.

Be it known to you that we are a very busy organisation receiving and delivering consignment to various individuals and organisation, as such you are not our first client's nor will you be our last, so don't try to teach me my work.

I'm still scheduled to fly on friday, but I'll have to delay until I here from you and get that card.

May the mighty Lord put is blessing on you

JAME: I'M TRYING SO HARD AND YOU'RE NOT SCAMMED YET

Dear Bartolomew,

I want to thank you for every thing so far. I went through your last mail the day before yesterday, when you wrote telling me any body can prepar the Cerificate of Deposite and Power of Anttony.

My friend i must tell you from my mind i was disappionted, after all i have been trying to do, to make thing go well for you, do you realise how much i spent to transfer this money to were it is now despite my ill health trying to make sure there is no misidentifiecation, ... at firt you asked me if i was the person that signed the Power of Attony, you keept me worryed, because i don't know what you are trying to do and now you say to me that anybody can prepar the document i sent to you what was given to me by the Security company do you know the gravity of what you have just said, if it was a fake the Security Company wouldn,t have contacted you, if not for the change of ownership.

My friend i may be sick but i think i still have some sence of human.

The $5 you ask me to send to you through POST CARD, i called the DHL OFFICE and UPS and told them i want to send a POST CARD with $5 in side to my brother and i was adivice to send only the POST CARD, becuase the Country operational jurediction does allow it.

I have been going through your mails and my friend i have trusted you with what i think not every body can do, thus i don"t want to think or imagain that $5dollar will be what will not make enback on your jounry, you have spoken like a father and as a brother, well i tell you $5dollar is not my problem now because what you have been writing has made believe in you engouh to trust you with any thing, if those girls in the orphenage home have you as a father i don"t think they will settle for less and with what God is about to use to do for them, thus my i think with we have said to each other is enough to know who you are ,i will adivice you enback on your jounry to amsterdam,everything is up to you now!

my friend do you know at times i do think if you were my doctor!! with all your question and what you are asking of me to bring Hm....

Thank you, regards

Jame Peter.

JAME: ARE YOU MAD OVER FIVE BUCKS?

Dear Bartolomew,

How Are You?

Hope Everything Is Fine I Have Not Hard From You Today,. I Don’t Want To Believe That Is Because Of The $5us That You Are Angry Hm..

Well My Good Friend;

I Want To Thank You once, again ! I want to believe that the stage you are in life now, you did not just get there under one day or did get you get any assistance from your family or your Father/Mother, I bet you must have trusted some one to the stage you are now and I believe you must have had a lot of disappointment, but basically what is life all about, love and heist wicked despoilment and blessing come through, give and take my parent were poor they wanted me to get to school, wanted any of my children to suffer or experience, look at all the children in ORPHANAGE home today is a result of neglect, because I don’t see why any body would want to have baby’s and not care for them and who know any of them can be like me or you time to come, but before then who is going to be there parent, I will tell you god and God will use people around the globe like us to get to them. I thank God for using you to meet these children’s needs and I also thank you for.

But there no money and as a result I was ask to frey cassava, because they were not ready to stress there self over the child when they have eleven children to feed and fields to plant yam and cassava, with all these and may things I saw on my way up, are things I never using your christen mind in assisting the less privilege and please don’t stop assisting them.

May the good Lord Bless you.

Awaiting to hear from you.

Thanks,

James Peters.

BART: MORE IN SORROW THAN IN ANGER

Hi James

I'm fine and you ? I am not angry at all after you, I'm just very disapointed. I've asked you for a proof of good fate from you. It's not the money that's important, it's the gesture. So far you've asked me for $12,000US and to plan a trip to Amsterdam. I've done what you've asked for, even if you sent me "documents" wich in fact contained more grammar and spelling errors than a first grader would make.

I've got the money secured, the plane reservation and took some time off from my job for you !! I've asked for a picture from you, you did not send it, I've ask for a small token to proove your good faith ... and still again, nothing ... Mister James, it's not difficult sending a card with $5 in it to Canada, YOU DON'T HAVE TO TELL ANYONE. You just have to tell DHL that it's a simple card ...

In addition to that, I find Mr Bosch very rude, I don't think that this guy can tell me that HE will stop sending me email. For christ sake, WE are customer at his security company. And if you want me to speak my mind, I find it very suspicious that I have to bring cash money. Here in Canada, whatever transactions we do with the goverment, can be paid by money order or bank wire.

So If I add everything up, I'm not even sure I'm want to go there anymore. I've did what you asked me. So know I want YOU to do what I asked. Send the card with the $5US in it. Just tell DHL it's a simple card with nothing in it. A single $5 bill won't be apparent in a card. THIS GESTURE is very important for me. Mr James, how do you expect me to go to a new place with a pile of money and I don't even have a proper and legal binding document.

I'll write Mr. Bosch to tell him I'm not going there tomorrow. We will have to schedule a new meeting next week when I receive that card. Don't make any mistake, I want to help you Mr Peter but I want some respect with the simple demand I make.

Be in touch.

Bart

BART TO BOSCH: MUST RESCHEDULE

Hi Mr Bosch, we will have to re-schedule our meeting next week as I cannot be there within the time frame I gave you.

I'll send new flight info as soon as possible.

Bart

JAME: SAME PHOTO HE SENT AGENT ILICHY

DEAR FRIEND,

HOW ARE YOU? I HAVE HAD ALL WHAT YOU HAVE SAID. I WILL TRY AND DO AS YOU HAVE SAID AND SEE IF THERE IS ANY WAY IT CAN GET TO YOU AND AM ALSO ATTACHING THE PHOTO OF MY WIFE AND MY LITTLE BABY GIRL SHE WAS MY LAST BORN ANY WAY THE MACHINE HAD SOME PROBLEM THAT WAS WHY I COULDN"T SEND IT TO EARLYIER.

[ScamO note: Here was attached a picture of a couple with a pretty baby girl. It looked like something from a magazine. We don't for a minute believe this is Jame Peter Ja & family. However we can say it is the same photo sent to Ilichy Miracsky, whom Jame is still trying to scam in Prague. He isn't going to score in Prague and he isn't going to score in Montreal but he sure keeps trying.]

WELL MY GOOD FRIEND SINCE YOU SAID YOU CAN"T GO TO AMSTERDAM WITH OUT A POST CARD AS A PROOF,..........ANY WAY I HAVE DONE AS YOU HAVE SAID,. THESE IS THE TRACKING NUMBER-CODE(xxxxxx). YOU CAN SEE ON THE NET (WWW.UPS.COM.

STILL I HEAR FROM YOU. BYE AND GOD BLESS YOU.

STAY BLESSED

JAMES PETER.

NB; IT IS INSAID A BITHDAY CARD ($5)

[ScamO note: That last bit would be heartbreaking if it were from anybody else.]

BART: WAITING FOR THAT MONEY FROM THE SCAMMER

James ... you fill my heart with gladness. I can't imagine that you found a place in your heart to put my mind at ease !

I've check the tracking number and the package has been registered. According to the website (UPS) the card should arrive on Tuesday. So expect me to go to Amsterdam by friday the later. I will have to re-book a flight. I've heard that one of my friend was in Amsterdam in vacation. He is called Jimbo, very nice guy. So I'll tell mister Bush to cancel hotel reservation as I'm going to stay with Jimbo. Don't be afraid he doesn't know why I'm going to Amsterdam and there is no reason I should tell him.

Can you imagine man I'm gonna be rich !! All that money for me and the girls.

Have a nice weekend man !

Brat
