Chasing the Wind

I suppose she must have found me by googling, perhaps looking for Dale Earnhardt’s current girlfriend. However she found me, Mrs. Arafat emailed me and wants to share $6.5 billion dollars with me.

This mail may not be surprising to you if you have been following current
events in the international media with reference to the Middle East and
Palestine in particular.I am Mrs. SUHA ARAFAT, the wife of YASSER
ARAFAT,the Palestinian leader who died recently in Paris.

Poor thing. Yasser died nearly three years ago. You’d think she’d be done grieving over him by now; three years isn’t exactly recent. She goes on to say –

Since his death and even prior to the announcement,I have been thrown into
a state of antagonism,confusion, humiliation, frustration and
hopelessness by the present leadership of the Palestinian Liberation
Organization and the new Prime Minister.I have even been subjected to
physical and psychological torture. As a widow that is so traumatized,I
have lost confidence with everybody in the country at the moment.

You must have heard over the media reports and the Internet on the
discovery of some fund in my husband secret bank account and companies and
the allegations of some huge sums of money deposited by my husband in my
name of which I have refused to disclose or give up to the corrupt
Palestine Government. In fact the total sum allegedly discovered by the
Government so far is in the tune of about $6.5 Billion Dollars. And they
are not relenting on their effort to make me poor for life.

Perhaps they’re torturing her because she has $6.5 billion that was meant for humanitarian aid but her terrorist dead husband siphoned it off greedily to spend it on yachts and clothes and stuff. I’m just saying.

In case you don’t accept please do not let me out to the security and
international media as I am giving you this information in total trust and
confidence. I will greatly appreciate if you accept my proposal in good
faith. Please include your tel/fax numbers to expedite action and reply
only to my private email address mrsarafat@totonline.net

Yours sincerely,
Mrs Suha Arafat

Dang it, I wish I had read that part first. Now I’ve shared not only her request to “the security and international media” but also given out her personal email address which oddly doesn’t match the gmail address I received. Oh well.

I’d contact her and collect my portion, but I just got through writing a post about Jesus and money and collecting embezzled money from the widowed wives of terrorists just doesn’t seem right. Besides, Mr. Chan Lee of Hong Kong wants me to have part of his $17 million that he’s currently embezzling from a bank in Hong Kong.

Dear Friend,

My name is Mr. Chan Lee, I am a staff of Bank of China Hong Kong. I have a Business Proposal of $17,300,000.00 for you to handle with me from my bank.I will need you to assist me in executing this Business from Hong Kong to your country, Should you be interested please reach me on this email address (ch_19lee@yahoo.com.hk) so that I can furnish you with more details concerning this business.

Busy, busy, busy.
