    By circulating, I assume you mean you're circulating it via this post? 
     
    Apparently in Nigeria they can't afford keyboards with lower case letters.

    No, no, no. NOT my intention. I've had other spams but this one was a bit odd as this was the first one I've received. Even though the FBI is routinely used as/in spam I'm just surprised I got one such as this as there is not an ounce of african in me... lol. And furthermore what the hell would I be sending things to Nigeria. Nevertheless, I got a chuckle out of it.
