JEFBOT.45_Bad Mail
Luckily, my mom doesn’t forward many emails but she does get a lot of crazy stuff sent to her on a daily basis. Last week I showed her the magic of Snopes.com, which I pretty much check out whenever I get any story emailed to me, even if it’s from a family member or friend and even if I know it to be true.
HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!! Jefbot, this is soooooo funny. We can all relate to those questionable emails. Although, I am in the process of transferring Count Wilbur Reynolds of Yorkshire’s $1.2 million into my checking account. In the meantime, can I borrow twenty bucks?
Fantastic job, man. Oh and congrats on being nominated on Joystiq.com!
I agree with your mom! … I hate email forwards!!! Very funny, and I’m sure someone is getting rich off of those emails!!! Excellent work as always Jefbot!
Darn…I really liked the Mr. Rogers and Capt. Kangaroo stories, too.
Love the strip! Congratulations on your nomination for Webcomic of the Week on Joystiq.com! I just voted.
OOooooooo…if only I DIDN”T know someone who had fallen for the back account scam! Good One JEFBOT!!!
Congrats on the nom! And I thought you might enjoy this actor-related email scam: http://more.showfax.com/bbs2/viewtopic.php?t=4443 (made me giggle, anyway).
(Your mom rocks.)
your mom sounds cool…
CONGRATULATIONS!!! on the nom. it sounds like some sort of porn site.
I think I know exactly which Bill Gates email you meant, which my mom forwarded to me, too! That was when I introduced her to snopes.
So true!
And the one about you being the 1 Millionth visitor gets going too. Argh!
michael cornacchia, thanks, man. yes, the $20 is yours, as long as you give me a percentage of your payout from count wilbur reynolds. i hear he’s legit.
funnyshaffer, i hope SOMEone is getting rich off those things. i sure aint!
mombot, i know. those were at least nice stories. i say we should should believe they’re true.
janonymous, thanks for taking the time to vote. you’re the cOOooOoolest!
jeff payton, heheh. that “someone” wouldn’t happen to be you, would it?
thanks, bon! ha! that link was hilARious! i always feel the need to “shave my bears.” and i am in full agreement with you: my mom TOTALLY rocks.
#2 jefbot fan, she’s TOTALLY cool and TOTALLY rocks.
unfavorite, gracias! it is kinda porn. porn for videogame peoples.
susan, i wonder how that scam will evolve now that mr. gates is retiring? and yeah, introducing moms to snopes.com is a must!
lalla mira, i share your frustration: double argh!!!
What I don’t get, is what is it with Americans and bank account numbers? I mean, what can you actually do with it? Nothing.
Here, it’s common practice to make a direct bank transfer over the internet to someone else’s bank account, which he/she has published on his/her homepage. If i have to rent an airsoft rifle for a game, because my pistols don’t cut it in non-CQB conditions, but don’t have any cash on me, he gives me his bank account number and I transfer him the money in the evening, from home.
If someone could clear it up for me, why is it so terribly unsafe to publish your bank account number, I’d be happy.
Airsoft is one of the fastest growing sports in the world. Make sure you have top notch gear.
heh. i got tht bill gates one.
This weblog appears to recieve a good ammount of visitors. How do you get traffic to it? It gives a nice individual spin on things. I guess having something authentic or substantial to say is the most important thing.
I tried to post a statement previously, however it hasn’t shown up. I think your spam filter may possibly be broken
Superb weblog! I really adore the way it is easy on my personal eyes and also the information are well written. I am asking yourself how i might be notified each time a new publish has been made. I’ve activated to your feed which must have the desired effect! Possess a good day time!
