"DR. GOOD LUCK EBELE JONATHAN"

Is that a name for a president, or what??....

We must always be vigilant for the fraudsters (neer-do-wells [which my dictionary wanted me to change to "beer-do-wells" :woot:]) of this world.

I just can't seem to keep up anymore.
 
Please PM me with the real phone numbers you've edited out. I'll help you with your application.
 
When you tell them everything they want to know about you (especially your bank account number to send the cheque?) then they will steal your identity and empty your bank account and use your credit cards.
When they steal your identity then one of them will be married to your wife and own your home and car.
