Delightful Surprises!

So... less talk, more surprise!
*cause I'm speechless* 8D


The blog that was deleted (by my stupid accident)
is now finally around! :D

So, instead of running around asking my friends to relink,
I can now just use the blogskin to replace :D

Go see what it looks like, and try to catch the car! ;D

2ndly...


TA-DA!!!

My sis finally decides to reopen her blog 8D
Only... it's at a different URL now  :)

Click here to go see :D

Oh, before that, you may want to be forewarned:
You have to click the colourful sound bars above to navigate around the site :)

PS. It's kinda still under construction, and sorry chele!
I kinda "borrowed" the lines that made your blog :P
Most of it is from the skin :)

3rdly...


Neopets sent me this email =/


Uhm... people, you guys aren't trying to hack into my account, right?

XD

Which is weird. Cause this is seriously out of the blue =/
(I'm not crazy, I didn't request for a password change =/)

And yeah, I know. I doubt anyone wanna grab my account...
(since everybody's busy with their own lives right now ._.)

Unless they have a sudden urge to want to play and get a headstart! D:

No, seriously guys :(
Please don't attempt that. Tis wrong :(

But the funniest part is...
If I had tried to log in to my neopet's account, I wouldn't for the life of me figured out the password XD
That was totally UNEXPECTED. lol

4thly...

There was supposed to be an section to warn you guys about an email about this foreigner who suddenly emailed me =/

Oh wait, there is! My bad XD

Apparently, she thinks I'm a guy. For some reason -____-;;

Here's how it goes like =/

dearest,

How are you today, and i hope you are in good health?

i am miss, Annabel Moses Akumi, I am 24 years old girl, a medical student, I am from Chad but I am residing now in a charity home here in Ouagadougou Burkina Faso

Please I need you to read through this mail very carefully because I said something very important about my life which I really need your helping hands, so it is important for you to know who I am and also my purpose for contacting you, and I pray you will have pity on me and save my life from my present situation

I never grew up to know my mum as she died immediately after my birth, my father told me that, my mother was poisoned when people came to celebrating with her, so my father became very angry and afraid that they might kill me, so after my mothers burial, my father took me and relocated to Mali, my father’s name is late Mr. Moses Akumi, My father was a business man, he deals on lime stone in Burkina Faso, and travel to other countries for his business, so I lived in Mali with my father until his death with his business partner and the family of his business partner in a collapse at an gold mine in Sierra Leone, please you can read through the story from this page

http://mrtara.com/2010/03/20/200-killed-in-goldmine-at-bo-district-west-africa-goldmine-tragedy/

i know you may wonder why i am so soon telling you about all this, even without seeing or knowing you fully well, really something in me tells me you can help me and it is better to trust you than to die in this charity home where I have no body to help me, I am suffering in this place, many are dying here because of lack of food and medications, I cry day after day, I am very sorry for telling you all this, I don’t suppose to border you with all this but I have no body to tell how I feel, sometimes I stay the whole day without seeing anything to eat, it is too painful, but I pray that with your help I will have a better life to live

My late father willed and also made me the next of kin of a treasure box deposited in a security company through his bank here in Burkina Faso, and in the treasure box contains $9.2 Million (US Dollars) deposited in it, though the security company do not know what is in the treasure box, but my father’s bank director knows everything about the treasure box because it was from their bank that my late father secured the fund with the security company, I have some documents here which my father gave to me to claim the treasure box, I went to the security company and they told me that they can not release the treasure box to me without presenting a foreigner as my late father instructed

the reason why I need your help is because of the instruction my late father gave to the security company, my father agreed with his business partner that his only child Eric will marry me, so my father told me that to insure his friend his faithfulness towards his promise that his son Eric will marry me, my father instructed the security company to release the treasure box to me through a foreigner who can help me to manage the treasure wisely, so now Eric has died with his father and mine in the collapse at an gold mine in Sierra Leone the security company can not release the treasure box to me without presenting a foreigner for the claim as my late father instructed

Please I want you to help me and stand for me as a foreigner who can help me to manage the treasure wisely so that the security company can release and deliver the treasure box to you, and I will come over to join you in your country and continue my studies while you will help me to invest the fund because I want to be a doctor, I love to be a doctor so that I will be able help and save others life it has been my dreams from my childhood, please I will compensate you with 15% of the total fund while the rest will be for investment

Please I want you to kindly let me know your readiness to help me so that I can forward all the details of the treasure box and also the contact of the security company to you

if really you will be honest to help me, please i want you to send your picture and your phone number to me so that we can talk through phone and i will also like to hear your voice

I will be expecting to receive your reply as soon as possible

Yours sincerely,
Annabel

I've searched it up. She's fake.

I don't know about you, but I'm wondering why this poor fella is in a charity home at age 24, without a guardian? =/
And why couldn't she ask a foreigner wherever she is?
She is studying in a University, so..................................................

There are many duplicates like this one so... if you got this email, deleted it.
Oh, btw. English is not her first language.

So beware :D

Hoax Emails

Hi everyone :)

I'm writing here today to tell everyone to please, be at least, aware of such unscrupulous people who like to take advantage of the emotions that people have and write spam emails.

I, for one, do not like to receive e-mails asking me to forward the mail to my contacts.
Fine if it's genuine.
Or funny.
Or has some value to other people.
But it's not okay to me if it's not.

How would you like someone to tell you,

"Hey, DUDE! You've been tricked!
Someone on the other end of the world 
is laughing at you right now...
because you've just been pranked!"

Have you seen an e-mail (real recently and have ended up in my inbox twice now)
That goes like this?

Dear Reader,

I am writing this on behalf of my loving husband.
  

Everything was fine, me, my husband and our two children. We had a happy family. My husband was an Engineer in a big company. He comes home early and helps me with the house chores and plays with the children... Our dreams were shattered in front of our eyes last week. It was a drunk lorry driver, who came on the wrong side and hit us and went. It killed my little baby girl and left my husband paralyzed. My husband is still in the hospital. Hisbrain is damaged and he needs an operation. I need 5 lakhs to save his life I have collected about 3 lahks from my friends and family. I need another 2 lakhs.I don't want to lose him. He is such a wonderful husband & father

He still doesn't know we lost our little girl.. I am looking after my son now.. Without my husband I won't be able to take care of him. Please help me
save my husband the one person I dearly love. I have already lost my daughter and I don't want to lose my husband as well. Please help us.
Thank you very much for your love & support.  
 

May God bless you.

Yours Truly,
Nirosha Silva
(I know you don't like to forward mails. I am really sorry to bother you.  If you have a heart and like to help a family, please forward this mail.
Every time you forward this it will add 5 cents per email ID to AOL and they will deposit it into my bank account. This will help me save my husband.)
  

( Even If you treat it as all Fake ... Try to forward Please. It Does not CostFor You. BE OPTIMISTIC)
 
      Whether it's true or false doesn't matter, but Pls forward this as Max as you can.



Well, I don't believe it's true.
According to hoax-slayer.com, this e-mail is a hoax.

I mean, think about it.
If AOL (or any giant e-mail company for that matter),
were to really give out 5 cents for each email ID,
and for every sad-case e-mail that gets forward to every inbox,
don't you think you've lost your e-mail account like years ago?

HAH! 
THOSE COMPANIES WOULD'VE BEEN  
BANKRUPT BY NOW!!!

Come on people, BE REALISTIC!!

Why you do want to help spammers all over the world?

You know, I could easily grab your e-mail ID from this forwarded e-mail alone and sell the info to people on the Net. (It's worth USD 5 for each of your email ID... that's easily USD 1000)

Like what these people are doing here: Go ahead and Google; I want to sell a list of e-mail IDs

And because I know that these (your!) e-mail IDs are from real people,
I could make a good sale from you.

And don't think,
"Well, I'm sure the person I forwarded this e-mail to
will delete my email ID before they forward it out."


No. DUH! 
I can safely say more 99% of the people who send me the forwarded e-mails DID NOT DELETE the history of e-mail IDs before they send the forwarded e-mails out.


You know why? 
Because out of the many people who send me forwarded e-mails, only one person deletes the history of e-mail IDs.
(If you're that one person reading this, thanks for doing so :)


So, anyways, if you are scared now that I might take your e-mail ID and sell it off, don't be.
I have a reputation I wanna keep.
And, anyway, it is unethical business to do this.

But remember!!
Not all people have a reputation they want to keep... and not everyone is ethical.
There are those who would do this without a second thought... they'd sell their souls if they could.

And you will never know if your email ID will be one of those sold to an unresponsible person.
Before you know it, your e-mail is hacked, and your personal details are stolen.



Peace yo.


P.S. Before I end my fury-filled post today, I want to remind you.
Be a little more responsible to your friends.
They are NOT words or numbers in your contacts.
Before sending out a suspicious/spam e-mail,
go to http://hoax-slayer.com, and look for that e-mail.
Most likely you are just sending out recycled stuff.
Not there?
Copy paste the first few lines of the e-mail body and do your own search.
You will find out, and it's confirmed to be a fake.
