Tod gets spam in his email all the time. Maybe he's a little fed up because I just saw this today....(scroll to the bottom and read each email until you hit the top for it to make sense):

K, I just sent $25,000 usd just to be sure that you have enough. I sent it Western Union like you said. The MTCN is: GETAJOBLOSER.
Thanks,

Thanks a lot. I hope it won't be too much trouble for you because i got mugged of my belongings including my bank cards and that's why i really need a loan from you but I'll explain better,once i get back.Right now I'm sick and confuse with my situation here. I need you to send the money to me via Western Union Transfer on my name:Barbara Schuelke address:521 West Fifth Street London, KY.
Please let me know how much you send for me to know how I'll receive in euros here. please send an email with the Money Transfer Control Number (MTCN) on the receipt with sender's name, i need it to pick up the money, this is important. I will refund once I get home. I really appreciate this. Please reply asap.

Would $10,000 be enough?

Tod is awesome.
This scam (w/a little twist) was pulled on a relative of ours and she got taken for several thousand dollars ... she met him in a chat room & he lied about being a member of the church. Even LDS chat rooms aren't safe from scammers! Good for Tod!
My favorite part is
"Would $10,000 be enough?"
bwhahahah!!! amazing! funny thing, i'm only about 40 miles from london, ky.
We need to have a week with you guys.
Oh my gosh, that is absolutely hilarious.
(And you asked a little while ago on my blog, but we don't know each other. I'm not sure how I stumbled upon your blog...apparently I have a lot of free time)
Mom...I don't know if I would admit that on the internet if I were you, haha! 1. Not sure if I want people to know that I have relative's that have fallen for this...2. Most of the people that read Holly's blog are scammers and they are now going to be contacting you from the UK or Africa because they are the heir to Prince Alibaba's fortune who died in a plane crash but they need an american bank account to deposit the money into.
