“When a Microsoft veteran turns into a Linux enthusiast."


"It taught me more about open source software and Linux than I ever knew before. It was riveting."


“A case that free software can help pave the way for a 21st century renaissance."

I’m gonna be rich!!

Man who will make me rich!!
This man needs my help to transfer 30 million dollars to a US bank account and I get 15%! I had no idea South Africa was such an unstable political environment that the banking system is not reliable, but their loss is my gain.

Note the passport looks a little suspicious to me as his personal details are done in a different font from the country name, and his personal picture looks like it was added on the computer later. I’m trying to get a bigger copy of the passport, a copy of his CV, to get him to send me any sort of inocuous mail from his official business account, and to understand why South Africa is unstable like Zimbabwe and Somalia, but I’m not worried, anyone with glasses like that has to be an honest man. He’s a respected civil servant in the Ministry of Finance of South Africa and that’s all I need to know. I’m going to be able to live like a rock star! I’ll keep this post up to date with the latest news.

Update: I think Khumalo Donald figured me out. Oh well, the dream was fun while it lasted.

    That’s not fair. I thought that i get such offerings exclusively. Maybe you will have more luck with the Microsoft Lottery and hopefully you will never get an email from the FBI ;)

    Regarding your email to Mark:
    There is always someone somewhere who has exactly the same problem/request and in most cases you can find there a solution. Thanks to the Internet and the great Ubuntu community it’s easy to find solutions (real solutions and no KB##### machine translated Chinese :-P) and to be up-to-date.
