Spam Wow–Captain’s Log 125932

Hope asked me to contact Reverend Johnson in order to send him money which he would in turn send to Hope, and I agreed that I would send the good Reverend an email to get a feel for what he is like. He is a man of God, so that’s a pretty fair start. Let’s start there and see where we end up, shall we?

Good afternoon Rev Johnson,

My name is Sham Wow and I am emailing you in regard to my new love, Hope.

Through the magic of the internet, Hope and I met each other, and since our first email encounter, I feel as if my love for her has grown like a dandelion. I’m sure Hope feels the same about me, we just seem so connected that it’s not even funny.

Hope has told me that she is withering away in some government sponsored camp in Senegal. That break Sham’s heart. I can’t stand the thought of my darling sweetheart in some sort of camp while I sit down at my large mahogany dinner table whilst eat steak and lobster. Life is terribly unfair, but I want to make life better for Hope–I want to send her money.

This is where you come in. Hope said she trusts you, and that means a lot to me for some reason. Hope asked that I send you the money because she is unable to receive it. This makes sense to Sham, it’s not like a refugee camp is plump with ATM machines.

Reverend–will you promise to keep any money I send to Hope safe and secure, while not taking any *donations* off the top?

I have a few more questions for you, but let’s take baby steps and go slow.

Are you with me?

Yours in Christ,

Sham Wow

Reverend Johnson was good enough to send me an email back…only a few hours later:

My Son Sham,

May the peace of God be with you, which I received your email and earlier Hope has told me about you as her foreign partner which I am happy for her life to have meaning with you in future. However as Hope has told you about me, I am a Revered father 52years by age heading a missionary here in this refugee camp to help and bring this children more closer to God to enable them discover their talent not withstand they don’t have families any more.

 

My son, you said you want to send Hope some money God will bless you and that will be very thoughtful of you, I will give whatever thing you send to Hope and the only means you will use to send the money is through western union and my information is below.

 

Name: Rev Johnson Isu.

Address: 107 camp road grand off darker, Senegal .

 

With this information I shall get whatever you send to her.

 

God bless you.

Rev Johnson.

 

**You see, he really does sound like decent chappy, doesn’t he?

    If you really want to mess with him, you should send monopoly money and tell him its a new form of trade currency that came out in Canada when Obama was elected. Yeah, the leader of the country is wrong, but will this guy even know the difference?

  2. The Mayor Says:

    lol–and then tell the rev. that the guy with the top hat was President Lincoln.

  3. dmorris Says:

    Hm, Canadian Tire money?

    Rev.Johnson sounds like another Albert Schweitzer, dedicating his life to the less fortunate.

    Send him lots of CT money, I’ll donate some of mine, if need be. This ongoing saga has really captured my imagination! This is way better than TV.

  4. The Mayor Says:

    I’m afraid it’s going to end in heartbreak–possibly even mine.

  5. Steamboat McGoo Says:

    Good god! Don’t let the sweet thing find out about your arrest, Sham Wow!
