Dear Rockhea ... er ... Loverock:

My name is Ubuntu Mandriva. I am a lowly MCSE working in the Ministry of Technology for the Country of Nigeria.

As you may have heard, the CTO for the Ministry recently exposed to world the fact that porn materials were being sold by several high ranking military officials via their personal web pages.

As one of the technology experts tasked with cleaning up the CTO's computer after they removed his bullet riddled body from his office, I discovered the existence of several local bank accounts which contain what appears to be hush money from countries and companies all over the world. Some of the depositors to this account include Bill Gates, Steve Ballmer, George W. Bush, No_Ax_to_Grind, Karl Rove and Darl C. McBride.

I can only imagine what the CTO had on these people, but suffice it to say I am certain that none of them will ever acknowledge the existence of, or their rights to, any of this money. It amounts to billions of U.S. dollars.

Since, for various reasons, I cannot get this money out of the country, I am offering to share it with you if you would be so kind as to email me your primary bank account number along with your PIN so that I may deposit all of it into your account and we can split it up when I get to the States.

I look forward to hearing from you,

Ubuntu Mandriva
