Сами мы не местные
Получил письмо от знакомого риэлтора (арфографея и пунктуацея аффтарские).
Good Morning,
Sorry for any inconvenience, but I'm in a terrible situation. I came down here to Kiev, Ukraine for a business,two days Ago on my way back to my hotel room I was robbed at gunpoint, my wallet and other valuables were stolen off me, leaving my passport and life safe. My luggage is still in custody of the hotel management pending when I make payment on outstanding bills I owe. I called my bank for a wire transfer but it has proven almost Impossible to operate my account from here as they made me understand international transactions take 7 working days to be effective which i can't wait.
I need you to help me with $2,900 USD to pay my hotel bills and get my self home. I will reimburse you soon as I get back Home.I will appreciate whatever you can assist me with. Let me know if you can be of help.
All hopes on you.
Мужик сам с Донбасса, причём конретно, так что чего бы ему в Киеве делать. Но телефоны указаны правильные. Хотя и не отвечают. Потому что пара цифр переставлена, но кого это волнует.
Правда, он и не уезжал никуда. Но зато сейчас плотно занят выцарапыванием обратно рабочего мейла.
В общем, на Фейсбуке горячее одобрение вызвала идея послать в ответ следующее:
Dear X,
I am sorry to hear about your situation and will be happy to help. There is an unclaimed account with a total balance of 9 million USD that belonged to my recently deceased client whose name was also X. I can use your name as a beneficiary and we will split the amount 50/50.
Yours truly,
Ilya Z, Esq.
