Is This The Mysterious Gadaffi Rumor Source?
Sender: Col.Gadaffi@Libya.com
To: Tips@BBC.com
Hello Distinguished Sir or Madam,
I hope this email reaches you in time. I would like to offer you a
business proposition. I am the owner of $60B in Swiss and US bank
account and would gladly offer you a fee of $1B if you will release a
press statement that I am about to surrender to the rebel Transitional
National Council.
However, to get the banks to release the money, I need you to forward
me the transfer fees in the amount of $1MM so that the banks will
transfer the money to you. Please forward this payment into my new
untraceable swiss account so that I may send you the $1B payment.

LMAO .. ZH rules
agreed!
I got this same e-mail and forwarded to Ben.
I usually respond to those emails with the following -
"I would surely be willing to help you in this matter and would like to talk with you as soon as possible. I can be reached at 212.902.1000. Please ask for Lloyd Blankfein and my executive assistant will be able to get you in touch with me and we can get the ball rolling."
Another one is:
Dear sir,
Thanks for the offer. Unfortunately, my account is frozen due to a dispute with the bank and they will not release any of my funds until I pay them $100k in dispute.
If you send me the $100k to unfeeeze my account, i will be able to deal with you and sent you the $1MM.
Thanks
A few years ago, when I first started getting them, I forwarded them to the local FBI.. :)
but...but...but, that's their origin.
Hillarious!
US monetary policy is now RUMOR MILL policy.
What an absolute JOKE !!!!!!
Control commod's through rumors. THE US GOV'T AND ITS FAILED PRINTING POLICIES ARE A JOKE !!!!!!!!!!!
I loled, hard.
Nice!
... but erroneous: it would be ...@bbc.co.uk (no such thing as bbc.com; here in engerland we don't all belong in the .com family you know)
;-)
Au contraire! www.bbc.com works just fine.
quite clearly you are not looking at where your browser redirect you when you go to bbc.com
No, we all are...at least it's not as bad as getting decoyed by lemonparty.org.
good one
Nope. Redirection is dependent upon your ISP portal location, I suspect. If entered as such, a browser remains at bbc.com, at least here in Canada.
in this case i do offer my most sincere and humble apology
;-)
priceless
My world sources tell me North African and Middle Eastern countries are getting ready to pull the plug on the dollar.
Covert withdraw of dollar denominated assets are on-going. Protection of precious mettle reserve measures are underway.
The closing of markets in specific areas to shut out western arbitrage will continue.
A spike in US Treasury yields is imminent.
ZH: Doin our part to keep the no fly list in seven digit territory.

About two years ago there was a news story regarding a county treasurer who was scammed by this. She lost something like a quarter of a million dollars.
That means you now have the credentials to run for office.
Education shouldn't be used as a measuring stick to how smart someone is, but more of a guide post on how well they follow instructions by others.
So it's been Ghadaffi sending me those e-mails all this time.
ME TO!!
And luckely for me, he accepted payment with my visa. I just had to give my account number and security codes.
I'm so going to get rich!
You are both fools. I'm waiting for a response back from my nigerian prince. Any day now my ship will come in.
""So it's been Ghadaffi sending me those e-mails all this time.""
...Yup....Trying to move his cash to Vancouver BC, Canada...
"Canada's four Western Provinces...with a plethora of natural resources and only 12.5 million citizens, led by gateway city, Vancouver BC...
Based on a combination of environment, health care, culture and infrastructure, Vancouver topped the list of the world's most liveable cities for the fifth straight year, according to a new report....."
http://seenoevilspeaknoevilhearnoevil.blogspot.com/2011/02/vancouver-bcworlds-most-liveable-cities.html
Do you really believe this crap? A city where the average home price is 9 times the median income, where an overdue earthquake would come with liquefaction, where the sheep vote socialist, and which has a metro population over 1 million with practically no expressways? Granted, it's a nice place to visit, but I wouldn't want to live there.
Ahh, the report came from The Economist. Which explains much.
Ah, the old Libyan scam. Who hasn't gotten one of those e-mails?
That is what the banksters are doing every day with POMO
Dammit, did you respond as well?
Well I was first so you're the looser.
[ L ]
+++ Very nice.
And OT, TD, can I suggest re-christening the ChairSatan a little?
How is ChairShaitan (Shaitan, Etymological parent of Satan, in Arabic).
It's got some Zing and comes off th etongue with a little Swing.
ChairShaitan.
Even the ME will get behind it.
ORI
I responded...I said send me some gold I will convert it for you free of charge.
I get those like 3 times a day. I though it was just me.
Gadhaffi must be desperate. I'd help him out except he's a useless old fucker.
market going red, oil bouncing back. QUICK...START A NEW RUMOR!!!!
Someone needs to create a random rumor generator.
Where's Banzai7 when you need him?
something tells me he's conjuring one up as we speak...he rarely disappoints.
Banzai7 is working on Cats this morning. Hilarious.

Those who follow him on twitter get all his stuff fresh off the printer.

Thanks for the link! I think I have a new favourite website!
He had me worried when he briefly switched to other barnyard animals, but now he's safely back to cats.....at least for the moment.
Witnessing an artist in real time is not for the faint of heart.
The best smart ass is a great smart ass. Nobody beats Tyler.
>>Hello?
<<Hi please hold for the Col.
>>OK but speed it up. I have a meeting with the NY Fed.
<<LLoyd! hello! this is Mumi long time no see how are the wife and kids?
>>Hey, my good friend, I'm in a real pinch here and you're the first person I thought of calling.
<insert shitty deal here>
TD you got that from chavez didn't you!
This is an all-out war now, guys !
Goldman Sachs hires law firm to shut blogger's site
Goldman Sachs is attempting to shut down a dissident blogger who is extremely critical of the investment bank, its board members and its practices.
The bank has instructed Wall Street law firm Chadbourne & Parke to pursue blogger Mike Morgan, warning him in a recent cease-and-desist letter that he may face legal action if he does not close down his website.
Florida-based Mr Morgan began a blog entitled "Facts about Goldman Sachs" the web address for which is goldmansachs666.com just a few weeks ago.
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/newsbysector/banksandfinance/5137489/...
That's Mike Morgan's old site !
This is probably the happiest moment of my life.
as Sandra Bernhard once said: "I feel like a mole on Marilyn Monroe's cheek...I'm just happy to be here"
Good job!
This is a great post. I wonder if Qaddafi is going into exile in Nigeria.
Not Nigeria, but a place with the same kind of laws : WASHINGTON
So freaking funny! This site is my only saving grace. Thanks for improving a crappy morning.
Looks like a great opportunity!
winning!!!
+1 Classic..
Glad it didnt' get sent to the SPAM folder. Lol..

I have been receiving emails like that from my banker at JPM weekly for the last 20 years-what's the big deal?
Actually, we now have an NSA visual for "Benghazi Deep Throat," a/k/a, the Khadaffi rumor source. Highly-placed within the government, "BDT" has Moammar's ear, as the Colonel is a big fan of "Wall Street" and "Hot Shots! Part Deux:"

You mean I might have just lost that $1 million?
Its ok, is only paper. Now, if you would have paid in gold, thats a different story.
it's a great man who can crack a joke in a shitstorm. Tyler,with all the new's you bring us,it's a wonder you have time for this...(not that it's a bad thing)....rock on
Qadaffy duck should have demanded PMs, doesn't he know ink-on-paper coupons are the locust plague, he really is a 2W bulb in search of a socket.
har har har....classic
laughing out loud.
One comedy bit deserves another:

For sale. Long-term superpower/empire now on a downward spiral.
The Prospectus:
Has a population with mostly good people trying to do the right thing in a global depression caused by their Powers that Be and banking system.
Like any society, they have their fringe nutcases. Some of which are trying to run for President in 2012.
Unchecked govt. spending and borrowing (mostly from China). Apparently basic math means nothing to them.
Not all but much of their population has a mass apathy problem.
Our Recommendations:
It's not a total writeoff yet. If you do buy it, our suggestion is sell off the arms and bases worldwide. If you do, you'll save money and gain massive positive pr globally. Others worldwide hate the govt.'s policies but like the citizens.
Any questions. You know where to find us.
This sounds strangely familiar to the response on my "car for sale" ad on Craigslist. Is the colonel shopping getaway cars, too?
Dear Col. G @Lybyayoyem.con: this is to advise you that we have sold the "Your Ass Is Mine" 'credit default swap' insurance on the now-uninsurable insurgents in the East, right at the top 0 the market for you, Laddie. if they don't like yer styoooopid gold-frikaseed, rag-headed ass, just shut the fuking valve!

Sorry Colonel,
since your son Hannibal was arrested in Geneva in 2008 on violence-related matters, you started a diplomatic row and withdrew your money from Switzerland.
So, not only have you some narcissistic problems, but probably early signs of Alzheimer (forgetfulness), your paranoid behavior being another typical manifestation of this affliction.
Why don't you just leave the scene and leave "your" country in the hands of more honest and capable leaders, who's first interest is the people and not just their own clan or family. As for "your" wealth, we suggest you return it to the people, as all the money can not give you back your mental health.
