the idea is only the dumbest of the dumb would fall for it so that makes it easier to get the money, anyone with 1/2 a brain would not even consider it, only someone who is dumb would even consider thinking it was legit

A Sgt with an M6 should raise flags too....not that I know much about pay grades or his day job prior to service...either way, they are LOWlifes.

Here's my latest scam run-in:

I was looking for an apartment for my buddy who is moving to van, since I know the areas and am local I was going to check out the appointments..

Super long read, sorry but here was my reply...short and sweet...

"WOW AWESOME!!! GREAT deal I would like to move in right away. Where do I send my money to your scamming retarded ass?

Fuck you, "REVEREND"

PS your name is Donna, a woman's name and you are a reverend married to a woman? Gay reverends are against the religion....use a better name when you try to scam someone else, asshole.

Chilled regards,

Mark"

That's besides the point though. You'd have to be pretty dumb to fall for any of the 'normal/original' Nigerian scams. The point the OP was trying to make is that now they've stooped to the level of using a fallen soldier's name for benefit; obvious scam or not!

RIP Sergeant Shipway - Beyond salutes you
