I got an interesting variation on the Nigerian spam today: it was a letter from some "Reverend" who was interested in starting a church for foreigners in the US. Kind of weird because it had my first and last name in the letter itself, so that's why I took a look at it... and saw that everything was misspelled, including the word "internate" (internet). They wanted me to reply and say that I would donate funds to help establish this "church" (which also got mispelled as "churd" at one point). I deleted it very quickly, but got a very good laugh out of it in the meantime. I guess they are appealing to... spiritual greed??
