Bah ha ha

This is a vaguely 419-scam-ish spam I just received, presented for your amusement:

TERRY GILLIAM
South Quay Plaza
183 Marsh Wall
London
E14 9SR

Greeting,

I have been directed to contact you by my boss, Mr Terry Gilliam, British citizen and Principal Assurance Manager for the HSBC in London. He has  an urgent business proposal for your consideration and acceptance that he wishes to discuss with you.

Kindly indicate your interest and get back to enable him furnish you with more information/details and modalities on this proposal via his private email address: terry.g1@qq.com

Respectfully,

Secretary.


Oh, there's got to be a reference to a Monty Python skit that fits here.....(I also like how the spam is simply signed "Secretary." So s/he doesn't get to have a name?)

Have you ever been to the 419eater website? Some of the stories make me laugh so hard I cry.

Ha! They might as well have name-checked Basil Fawlty.
