Lagos, Meet Whitey Bulger

Gotta love those Nigerian Internet scammers. Sitting around all day, trying to come up with a good angle, writing letters so bad that anyone who falls for them deserves to lose all their $$$ in Lagos. But this one came from “Robert S. Mueller, Director FBI.” 

Obviously this guy doesn’t know much about the FBI’s reputation around here.

Ha ha. Silly Nigerian Internet scammer! Someone needs to tell that dolt that in Boston, the only thing less credible than Nigerian Internet come-ons is the FBI. Now, if they want to send me a letter from one James “Whitey” Bulger.

I have been on the lam for over a decade, living under various false identities, and I am having trouble accessing some of the considerable drug and extortion profits I racked up with the assistance of the Federal Bureau of Investigation …
