I'd like to wish everyone a very happy new year. Tonight I was going to write about resolutions because we all have them at the beginning of the year but as I was opening and reading my email tonight I received an email about inheriting 2 million dollars. This is not the first email of this sort that I've received. It's like the 4th or 5th one. Usually I just delete them but this time I decided to open it & read it. It's really sad that some people really fall for this or either they are just desperate for money & go for it in hopes that they won't get caught. Well I knew just from reading the title of the email that it was a scam. Secondly, this is supposedly a woman in London who is "Christian" and doesn't want to leave her money to her family because they are not & she wants someone to use the money for good. Well, I don't know anybody in London. Then it goes on to say she doesn't speak much because she's ill so to correspond by email only. Ok I just fell off the turnip truck I guess because why would you want to give somebody, a stranger, 2 million dollars & not talk to them or meet them to make sure they would do something positive with this money. And if it's legit why not just give it to a charity then if your family are such heathens?
Has anyone else received such nonsense? These don't even show up in the spam they are coming through into my regular mail. I received one before this & it said I had money coming from a rich relative who died in a plane crash! Ok I don't have any rich relatives & don't you think if someone in my family died on a plane that I would have known about it?
Ok I'm done ranting now. I just wanted to share the nonsense that I've been reading.
God Bless & Have a prosperous New Year!

Happy New Year! Yes, people will try to scam at every turn. One person asked me for money and offered to give me change back. Ha!
BTW, I love your locks (colour especially)and very cute hair tie.
I receive the same emails and just hit delete. Sadly, there are people who fall for them...
Happy New Year!!!
People are a trip! What some people will go through to get other people`s money!
