I will swear that I received this email actually! Celebrian will vouch for that. I did not send the reply that I wrote, however. Jandalf, don't kill me for mentioning you in it!
This is a fasinating spam email: I found several reasons why it couldn't be true-- but it would've been nice... snicker. Here follows an email I received on August 25th, 04. Read, enjoy, snicker, and hope you like my joking reply... which, of course, I can't send because of the spambot stuff... too bad... heh. I actually DID receive this email, I swear it! Names have been changed to protect the not so innocent-- but I SWEAR it was sent to Eowyn Skywalker about some random other Skywalker!!!! REALLY!!!!!!
Dear Eowyn Skywalker,
Greetings
I write in respect of Mr Jarad Comrad Skywalker an America, who died with his wife and two children in an auto crash in Kara district of my country on 31 October 1999.He was the CEO of H.C. Constructions Ltd.
He was my client and I have been directed by his bank the Financier Bank Plc, to search for his next of kin to claim fund belonging to the deceased which has been dormant without any claim either from his family or relatives.This is because the bank could not locate any of his relatives.The said amount is USD$25,521.000(Twenty five Million five hundred and twenty one thousand United States dollars.(Plus interest).
Please indicate in your reply if you are related to the deceased,or if you would like to work with me in confidence to have this fund transferred to your account as the located next of kin.As his personal lawyer I can not have this fund transferred to my account hence I contacted you.
This chamber desire absolute confidentiality and professionalism in the handling of this information as all documents will be forwarded to you for this claim.And the sharing ratio will be discussed.
Please do get back to me as soon as possible stating your position on this matter.
Yours Sincerely,
Barrister Jacob Smithson
My reply?
Dear Mr. Barrister Jacob Simthson, or whomever else it may concern,
The fact that you have emailed me on this subject greatly concerns me. For, as you very well know, we Skywalker's have had a lot of people on our case of late. And the death of my dear second cousin's mother's father's sister's dog's roommates's brother's aunt's daughter's niece's bird's owner's pet's boss's third cousin's second brother's son deeply bothers me-- I have reason to feel that his death was not an accident, but caused by my dear husband, Anakin Skywalker, or, of late known as Darth Vader. He has had a thing for us Jedi, you know.
I believe that I am Jarad Comrad Skywalker's next of kin-- for, indeed, I am the only Skywalker there is-- Anakin no longer accepts the name, and Jandalf would kill me if I mentioned her Skywalker bloodline. In fact, I am not sure she even knows she is a Skywalker-- when Anakin sees her next, that should come as a shock. You know, the whole I'm your father thing, and all...
There are only us left that you could contact, then-- and I'm the only Skywalker that would bother with the fortune you leave us. I am shocked though, that Comrad would dare involve a lawer with the personal feud he has going on with Jason Baggins, the Hobbitish Sith that was out to steal his fortune. (25,521.000 U.S.F., you know) Thus I do find myself wondering much. I mean, because he killed Jason, I am sure he would want to avoid contact with the law as much as possible. But who am I to question his motives? I'm merely his son's second brother's third cousin's boss's pet's owner's bird's niece's daughter's aunt's brother's roommate's dog's sister's father's mother's second cousin, after all.
I suppose my position in this matter is runfordearlife... I don't know... are you with the CIA? Because, if you are-- ummm... well, I wasn't the Eowyn Skywalker that was doing the triple agent selling top class information to the Bounty Hunter's Intergalatic Assotiation!!! REALLY!!!!
Your's Sarcastically,
