  1. Nigerian money scams are old news. The new hotness is Kenyan money scams. Watch out for people claiming to be the son of a Kenyan dignitary, who then tell you they have some important office over here, and would like to give you some kind of bail out. The trick is, they steal it all back and more in small increments over the next four years.

    This isn’t racist is it?

  2. Are you positive the e-mail isn’t authentic? That Yahoo e-mail address just screams “legitimate” to me.

    I think you should reply with all of your band and credit card information just to be sure. Not that that is my e-mail address or anything….
