Anytime there is a "Due to the nature of my work" that should raise a red flag.

Lol, exactly. His "work" is scamming people on CL!

Copied the first one out of my gmail I was given. I have a bunch of them when I search my gmail for Nigeria. There are others that don't have Nigeria, but those aren't quite as easy to search for.

I also have some other funny ones. For some reason they try to solicit me like I was trying to hook up with someone when I was trying to sell something. Very strange.

Thank you very much for the mail you sent to me,with full respect i introduce myself to you. my name is Tiffany Williams I hail in Texas and i am 28,though i was called to see my sick mom,she was ill and that's why am with her here in Nigeria right now,infact i always asked my dad when he was alive, i normally ask him how come he married my mom because she was A native Africa and he said i shouldn't mind that he met her in the school when my mom came to the states to study that how they met. It's a pity i lost my daddy few yrs ago, and i also just lost my boy friend few years ago in a little illness too. I am sorry if i scared you with my Letter anyway.
I will like to know little about you,and what you want in relationship,i like honest man,loyal,trustful and caring who can take care of me but i don't like lier,and drug dealer in my life,i really hate it,anyway i guess i will be back to the states next week so we could see each other. You can e-mail me and talk to me on here so we can chat before i come back to the states next week.
