Few days ago I received a rather interesting email, all the way from the Republic of Benin, West Africa. Here’s the small image. For a larger image, click here.

So according to the letter, a cheque’s been issued to me, for the sum of 3 million euros. I’ve seen enough emails from Africa that’s similar to this – I’ve received a cheque, an inheritance, donations, etc. But never before snail mail. And they’ve found my address too somehow. Googling myself brings out no results, so I’m not exactly sure how it’s possible. Unless a friend’s email account was hacked. Anyway, so no, don’t think I’m 3 million euros richer (although I wish it was so), but I’m somewhat tempted to email this mysterious Laura Kesley from AIB International. Advice and suggestions welcomed.
