Since after the death of my father in the hands of the rebels I have been in a very big difficulty of how to safeguard the money that my father left for me as my inheritance before his death because, the money is too much that I am afraid I don't know how and where to start to go about it. Please if you can help me invest the money to your country try to reply me urgently I will give the contact of the bank were my lete father deposited the some of 10.5 million USA Dollers here in my country Cote d' Ivoire before his death, God will always bless you for your help which I know you shall never regret as I am going to take you as my partner.
The death of my father actually brought sorrow to my life. I also want to invest the fund under your care because I am ignorant of business world.
I am in a sincere desire of your humble assistance in this regards.
Your suggestions and ideas will be highly regarded. Now permit me to ask these few questions:
1. Can you honestly help me from your heart?
2. Can I completely trust you?
3. What percentage of the total amount in question will be good
for you after the fund has being transfeered to your account and i come over to meet you?
(4) To provide a bank account into which this money would be transferred to.
Please, consider this and get back to me as soon as possible Immedaitely I confirm your willingness, I will send to you more details involved in this matter,I will like you to forward to me your full contact information.

Hey All!
Ugh, so sorry about the spam. We're working on tougher spam blockers right now. You might get some spam if we keep email within VegWeb open.
Do you all have a preference? Would you rather be able to email within the site even if it means getting occasional spam or is it too annoying?
Let me know and until then, all of those people have been banned and we're working on tougher blockers.
Thanks for your input and patience!!
Laura
thanks WML, I'm not sure what I'd prefer....I'll need to think about it.
BUT, I did get a message from Miss Larissa, so looks like she'll be setting up business in a few countries!
haha, I finally got one from Larissa too, was feeling a little left out there for a while...
I like being able to send messages, and because I haven't received a whole heap of spam yet, I still find it more amusing than annoying. That being said, generally if two regular members want to exchange private information off the forums, it's not that hard for us to exchange email addresses or hook up through facebook or whatever, so it wouldn't be the end of the world if the messaging was restricted to subscribers again...
please don't take the messaging away!
I've met a lot of people who don't post on the forums, but wanted to message me and add me on myspace and whatnot.
I was really happy when we could message people :/
me too! i like the messaging! please oh please let it stay!
the messaging rox
My only concern is that there are a bunch of folks who don't read the forums and so they might not know that it's spam and that everyone is making fun of it. Is there any way to send an email blast to everyone on vegweb warning people about scams?
Laura, I'm not too worried about the spam. I'm kind of enjoying all the love messages. ;)
Well, I'm not really enjoying them, but I'm not upset, either. I just didn't like getting a message in my personal email.
its starting to get irritating. I got three more messages today from larissa, all sent within 30 seconds of each other.
i think we should keep it and just continue to make fun of the spam until the blockers are up.
yabbit - the hackers you speak of i can't remember. but i feel like i should. are you talking about the creepy clown tied to a chair hack?
No, it was the one where you couldn't get past the home page and it had a banner saying "VW Has Been Hacked by the Blue Team!!" like that was a great achievement.
Creepy clown?? When was this?
I haven't had any for two days now.....I feel so unloved! :'(

me too... :'-(
I'm really sad that I haven't been spammed. I guess no one wants my loving touch or for me to get to know whom they are. :'(
getting busy writing creepy love spam to sad vegwebbers.....
Anyone else get one from someone looking for DaveDrum??

Yes! I wasn't sure about that one.
I'm also questioning authentic messages.

Likewise...
Okaaay...
I just got a message from ChocSoyChica asking why she couldn't have access to the forums. It was badly spelled so I figured it was her. It only now struck me to wonder...if she's been banned from the forums how does she PM?
