The TY Sports Mailbag - Now Open for Business

About a week ago, we decided we needed to post our email addresses on the side of the site so that our loyal readers and fans could get ahold of us. What we did not expect was the sudden outpouring of love and attention. We do not write for praise or really anything beyond amusing ourselves, but I think you’ll agree that the notes below really show why we keep doing this whenever we have time and/or don’t want to work. We are also making plans to leverage our newfound public fame by attending this entreprenurial extravaganza. If you want to join, well, just email us!

Enjoy the mailbag, and if you have more to say, please contact us at tysportsblog@live.com or thetastygreek@gmail.com.

From: Mr. Johnson Kofi.
The Manager International
Commercial Bank Ghana
First Light Branch
Accra, Ghana.

Attn: Sir,

First I must solicit your confidence in this transaction, this is by virtue of it's nature as being utterly Confidential and top secret. Though I know that a transaction of this magnitude will make any one apprehensive and worried, but I am assuring you that this is real and genuine.

My name is Mr. Johnson kofi. I am the manager of the international commercial bank Ghana, first light branch. I am a Ghanaian married with two kids.

I am writing to solicit your assistance in the transfer of us$2,500.000.00.

This fund is the excess of what my branch in which I am the manager made as profit during the last year. I have already submitted an approved end of the year report for the year 2007 to my head office here in Accra and they will never know of this excess.

I have since then, placed this amount of us$2,500.000.00 on a suspense account without a beneficiary.

As an officer of the bank, I cannot be directly connected to this money thus I am impelled to request for your assistance to receive this money into your bank account.

I intend to part 30% of this fund to you while 70% shall be for me. I do need to stress that there are practically no risk involved in this. It's going to be a bank-to-bank transfer. All I need from you is to stand as the original depositor of this fund.

If you accept this offer, I will appreciate your timely response.

With Regards,
Mr. Johnson Kofi

Thousand Dollars ($30, 100.000.00) to you in the Codicil and last testament to

his WILL.This may sound strange and unbelievable to you, but it is real and

true. Being a widely traveled man, he must have been in contact with  

you in the

past or simply you were nominated to him by one of his numerous friends abroad

who wished you good. Engr. J?rge Kr?gger until his death was a member of the

Helicopter Society and the Institute of Electronic & Electrical Engineers.

According to him this money is to support your humanitarian activities and to
