Default Free FPV GTs

Well I have had a huge stroke of luck. I just inherited a huge amount of money.
Now as a gift to all the nice AFF people I am giving every member a free GT.

I got this email.....

Hello

My name is Mr.Graham N.Robert. Given my current state of health, I have decided to donate what I have to you,I am 69 years old and I was diagnosed for cancer about 2 years ago, I am donating

(US$155,600,000.00) for you to use for charity and for the less privileged, Please contact my lawyer for more information on this:

Reply To:

Contact my Executor:

CHARLES STANLEY Esq

Principal Partner Cole & Cole Associates

Email: charles.stanleychambers@gmail.com

Now in order to get this sorted I have had to set up a trust account (in the Cayman Islands) to get the ordering and I don't want to have extra GTs hanging around because people have given me wrong addresses so all you have to do is send $50 to my trust (me) account and shortly your free GT will be delivered......

While the basic Ford Six was code named Barra, the Turbo version clearly deserved its very own moniker – again enter Gordon Barfield.
We asked him if the engine had actually been called “Seagull” and how that came about.
“Actually it was just call “Gull”, because I named it that. Because we knew it was going to poo on everything”.

So Flappist what did you do to deserve the donation, lol?

I had a customer once ask me if I could loan them some money to help undertake a transaction where they would get several hundreds of thousands of dollars. Took a phone call to the US bank in the email asking to see if the other party had followed through with their "commitment" to prove my customer was about to be scammed.

ps. could you spring me a GTE and I'll pay the diff as I like the Q-ship look having a G6ET, thanks.

Sorry to have to tell you this, but under Big Kev's changes to the Australian Tax Law, you now owe the ATO $75M, irrespective of whether you have actually received the money.
The Good news is, that when you are unable to obtain the money promised, you will be able to claim a tax loss and carry it forward, so once you have paid the $75M, you’ll probably never pay tax again.

Wow that is good news Dazz, no more tax ever!!
I will put my name down for 1, but as I live in WA, I will have my shipping agent pick it up. If you cover his costs of $2000, I will add it to the original amount.
That's $2050 to you Flappist.
What is your Paypal, so I can complete the transfer?

what a great offer. just in case you dont get enough takers, can i pull my name down for three, as i cant decide on what colour. I'll have Sensation Blue, Mystic and Sunburst

thanks very much for such a generous offer.

PS - no stripes if they are the new range, don't like them.

No one's claimed the $129,818,431 (euros) European lottery yet.
Maybe one of those emails I get telling me I'm the winner, even though I never bought a ticket is true.

Who do I send my bank account details to???
