NOTE:

If I refer to anything from the email scam in my reply I've bolded it, so you don't have to read the entire scam to get the references. Also, to maintain my anonymity I've changed all of my real contact information in my replies to Scamtastic. Some of the emails are written as if I were a woman and some are written as if I were a man. For the record, I am neither.

My Response:

Mr. Cho,

I'm not what you'd call a book learner. However, I'm also not street smart or handsome. But I do know one thing, and that is Orientals is good with money. Or was it the Jews? I don't remember exactly what Pappy said because I'm drunk, but I'm pretty sure he said you're good at numbers because your squinty eyes helped you concentrate in school, while my round eyes were better for taking out the trash and mowing the lawn.

The only thing I want to know is who gets the additional 10%?

I don't have a phone as it is the work of the Devil. My current address is PO Box 114, Birmingham, Alabama. And to answer your question, yes, I live in alley behind the post office.

Please provide me with details of the secret operation. And use smaller words as "endeavor", "utmost", and "discretion" confuse me.

再见
