Les salles de marché s'amusent

Dear American:

I need to ask you to support an urgent secret business relationship with a

transfer of funds of great magnitude.

I am Ministry of the Treasury of the Republic of America. My country has had

crisis that has caused the need for large transfer of funds of 800 billion

dollars US. If you would assist me in this transfer, it would be most

profitable to you.

I am working with Mr. Phil Gram, lobbyist for UBS, who will be my

replacement as Ministry of the Treasury in January. As a Senator, you may

know him as the leader of the American banking deregulation movement in the

1990s. This transactin is 100% safe.

This is a matter of great urgency. We need a blank check. We need the funds

as quickly as possible. We cannot directly transfer these funds in the names

of our close friends because we are constantly under surveillance. My family

lawyer advised me that I should look for a reliable and trustworthy person

who will act as a next of kin so the funds can be transferred.

Please reply with all of your bank account, IRA and college fund account

numbers and those of your children and grandchildren to

[email protected] so that we may transfer your commission for

this transaction. After I receive that information, I will respond with

detailed information about safeguards that will be used to protect the

funds.

Yours Faithfully Minister of Treasury Paulson

C'était notre blague du jour.
