RE: URGENT: CONTACT FEDEX FOR YOUR ATM Master CARD

Does anyone know why so many African scammers seem to think that telling me their scam email has been sent by a “Rev” will make me believe it?  Why would “Rev. James Long” be the director of a courier company?  Surely he’d be working with his church and congregation?

Yet another scammer after your money.  You know as well as I do that you aren’t expecting $450k.
