Perhaps if you replied with the greater grammar, spelling, punctuation, and most importantly intelligence of a child older than 10, perhaps you could have gotten some useful information out of this guy and helped the authorities. As it is you made yourself look like an idiot both to him and us.

Doctor told me she will undergo a Surgical Operation, so i decided to stay with her in the Hospital for some days. I want you help us with alot of prayer because she's going through seriouse pains.i would like to update you about my wife's present situation and request for your kind help. I was at the hospital today and i was informed by the doctor that my wife needs to undergo an immediate surgery treatment and has to be travelled down to Africa for an
expert surgery. In which it would involve with a lot of money. as a
matter of fact, i have no other intentions rather than seeking for
your help and gratitude. I am weeping right now because i am sort of

I am sure it's been stated before, but be careful when talkin to these ppl. They are dangerous and if you ship it, you lose. The money will not be there and you will be responsible for the 4K. TRUST ME. DON'T DO IT.

Yep, buddy of mine has already gotten 2 checks. Setup a alternate email address though so you dont get the emails in your main account.
