Really great piece of 'literature' that pete ... you'll have to frame that one :¬)

why don't I get those?

Just had the most amazing spam mail through. Can't believe a scammer would go by the name of Dr. White Butt!


The mail :

''Hello dear,How are you today?

I write to inform you that we have already sent you $5000 USD dollars through Western union as we have been given the mandate to transfer your full compensation payment total sum of USD1.2m via western union by the Authorities of FEDERAL MINISTRY OF FINANCE FOREIGN PAYMENT.

Now, I decided to email you for the MTCN and sender name so that you will pick up this USD5000 to enable us send another USD5000.00 today as you know we will be sending you USD5000 per day. Please note that the transfer charge is $125, so contact Dr.White Butt and asked him where you can send the transfer charge to enable you run to western union to pick up the $5000 and call him back to send you another payment tomorrow, his contact info is

Nmae:Dr.White Butt
Email: [email protected]
Phone:+229-96 39 85 75

Here is the western union information to pick up the USD5000;

Receiver: Your name
MTCN : 9514438180
Sender 1st Name: Richard
Sender 2nd Name: Tedlock
Text Question:WHO
Answer : GOD
Amount: $5,000 USD

Track it ,you will find that it is available to pick up by you the receiver but you cannot pick it untill the transfer charge od $125 is paid.
So try to send him the fee to enable you pick your fund.

Regards,
Mr.Frank Jerry. ''

Evening.

Just come back from dinner (it's 20 past midnight here), a lovely North Indian chicken and tomatoes dish that I can't remember the name of. Lunch consisted of Pizza, so not exactly healthy food today.

Hotel is great, fairly easy (albiet 12 hour) day at work due to getting to know the people and the place before I start training tomorrow.

I have someone to help me in the training too, which also means I have a backup if I can't make it in for whatever reason (never know if I'll get a touch of Delhi Belly at some point!).

Weather is rainy and hot, but biggest problem this presents is mud all over the roads,which is worse than it sounds when you're trying to cross three lanes each side with mad traffic that doesn't stop for you, even on crossings. All part of the fun though,

Seen two bike accidents in a few hours on the road outside the office, apparently quite common and still no one wears more than tshirts and shorts and no helmets.

Odd.

Probably completely unrelated, but when I accessed Freeola from my Blackberry the other day, my status had changed to Regular in Purple. But when I logged in on the computer, it appeared as Moderator in blue again.

I did have to sign back into Freeola in the past week. Maybe when it logs out for whatever reason, it resets? Otherwise, I'm not sure.

Odd. Resolved for now.

Did you manage to catch when it happened (roughly) this time? Would really help to locate the issue.

I've lost moderator powers in the Games forum again.

Morning,

back to work after a mini tour of Devon and back to the chaos, how I've missed it.

Performed a quick cleanup of the review forum. Same character keeps posting reviews, even ones that I've already had removed. Reposting them over and over again doesn't mean they'll eventually be allowed to stay up!

@pb
Hope your cough gets better soon! ;¬)



@Freeola
I see a staffie has been able to delete the spam post I edited earlier - but no one has had a minute to reply to my Python query :¬(

NB. When I login/out it looks like some CSS 'style' is breaking...
