Michael Jackson didn't even have $315,000 when he died. These guys should go back to 5th grade, they sound like garbage.

Well, there are a few things that lead me to believe that this may be real:

1. It's from Africa, right?
2. Africa is sending money to poor people in the US. That happens all the time.
3. They knew I was poor. How could they know that?
4. It's from the Micheal Jackson World Foundation. That's pretty famous, isn't it?
5. The payment is arranged through an ATM card payment. Why bother with a check?
6. It's full of spelling and grammar mistakes because they were really excited about it!
7. The person sending the email and the name of the email account don't match. Large corporations like the UN normally use fake names and Gala or Yahoo email addresses, right?

It must be real.

It's international, Nigeria. It could be one of those 900 type number scams that charges you thousands of dollars for the call.

Apparently people in Nigeria are taught that people in the U.S. easy marks for confidence tricks. And unfortunately they keep being proved to be right...

In the beginning there was nothing. There'll be nothing in the end...
