USD1.3 million

Whoo hooo.... it's better than striking 4D, Da Ma Cai or Toto. This one came in from one of my African scammers...err... I mean friends. I have not been corresponding with this fellow for almost 2 weeks - you know it gets kinda boring after awhile. Anyway, I didn't expect to hear from this friend but I got below mail in my inbox today.
