Omar Sheriff, Porn Star?
Omar Sheriff Porn Star? I thought he was a porn star anyway when I saw the email with that name on the top, an obvious riff on the name of actor Omar Shariff. “Oh right,” I thought, “click on the link and here’s some guy in nothing but a pair of chaps and a cowboy hat.”
But I was wrong:
"My name is Omar Sheriff, a merchant in Dubai who has been diagnosed with Esophageal Cancer that defiled all forms of medicine so that I have only a few months to live acc ording to medical experts."
Ok first of all I like the “acc!” – A nice touch for a guy with throat problems. And who hasn’t wanted to 'defile' all forms of medicine? Write graffiti on the examining room walls? Stick “Kick Me” signs to the doctors’ backs?
"Though I am very rich, I was never generous. I was always hostile to people and only focused on my siness as that was the only thing I cared for."
Well sure but sinus trouble is terrible! Who can blame him for focusing on it?
Of course he regrets all this today:
"Now that God as called me, I have willed most of my assets to my family and friends. So far, I have also distributed money to some charity organizations but the last of my money which no one knows of is the HUGE CASH DEPOSIT OF TWENTY FOUR MILLION DOLLARS that I have with a Security Company in Europe for safe-keeping. I will want you to help me collect this, deposit and disburse it to charity organizations so please send me a mail to indicate if you will assist me in this disbursement of this money, 20% of which I have set aside for you. While I await to hear from you, remain blessed. Signed, Omar Sheriff."
And he gives his email as youareasucker@hotmail.com and OK yes I changed that just in case some of you crazy kids try clicking on it and get swept up by who-knows-what. I myself however am going to write him right now and, since he’s so rich, ask him to just jet on over here and leave my cut in small bills under the porch. And who knows, maybe when I click there really will be a picture of some young cowboy in chaps or not. :-)
