They're apparently trying to start making the rounds again. This time they're not using the "Happy Married Life" line. If anmyone gets this or something similar and is wondering if it's for real or not, it's a scam:
Here are some info about the cake i want to bake from you i will like you to bake me a chocolate or a strawberry cake of 5 tier that can serve approximately 250 guest or more, and I want the cake to be decorated with pink roses and the cake should be covered in fondant or butter cream and let there be an inscription be writing on one of the cake as (Bill wed Kimberly) and i want you to pack them in different boxes after ready for pick up. And I want you to have the cake ready for pick-up on 22nd of January 2010, 11 o clock A.M. So let me know if you can fill in the date, once i have your reply i will forward all the details and the picture sample of the cake i will like you to bake for me. I await your reply soon.
Thanks and God bless.
Bill.
I dont know what you mean mike i cant see anything wrong with the letter and i think it is very nice to have the offer to bake a cake of 5 tier to give me opportunity to make wedding cake for 250 guest or more.
ha ha, The grammer is bad. ending the letter with god bless lets you know this person is trying scam you.
the scammers LOVE strawberry cake! HA HA HA
They do love that strawberry cake for some reason!
Oh yeah, as soon as I see strawberry....my hackles go up. Who the hell asks for strawberry anyways?
It doesn't sound like English is the native language of the scammer. I'm sure this isn't a newsflash to anyone though. LOL
Wherever they are, they go to a site like BabelFish, and type in what they are requesting in their language. They hit translate to English, and this is what you see. They don't think it sounds funny, because the translation thingy tells them it's correct.
It shouldn't be too hard to figure out it's a shady proposition.
Unfortunately, people are falling for it, because well....it hasn't gone away.
My favorite thing to do is lead them on and waste their time. Go along with it right up to the part about sending you the money...
These jerks almost ripped my cousin off for $2300. If not for me telling him it was a scam they would have succeeded.
They remind me of the parasitic scum that write virus programs.
So yes, I take the time to make them unhappy and then I forward everything to the police

And man, I would love to see you converse with a scammer!
Ha, you should see some of the letters I've written to these guys! Sometimes we've gone back and forth about ten times before I tell them that payment has to be in advance and in cash, then they stop writing to me for some reason
They'll even reply if you write "suck it, scammer" and send that to them! They're really friendly and enjoy correspondence.
Oh yeah, I've told them "May God have mercy on your soul seeing as how you are going to be burning in hell for trying to steal people's money". I've only ever got one response. The guy said he didn't understand what I was talking about as he is a good person just trying to help. Whatever!
