Never heard of the bank before, but has my character ever repeatedly heard of the scam.
It didn't take long to throw "Director" Chima a curve up and in that he never recovered from, starting with an edit of his original email:

What ensued led my character to believe that "Director" Chima isn't up to his chosen profession:
Your mail do not make any sense.
Sure it does. First you have to put yourself into the mindset of a sh*thouse wombat. Breathe deeply and orange juice from concentrate.
I do not understand
.
That's because you're not "being the wombat".
what do you mean?
For example, the loosest interpretation possible of the philosophy of zen argues that a donut with no hole is a danish. The Danish don't understand that, but will eat all you put in front of them. So you get it, right?
dont write me no more.
What do I use in place of "me"?
So far...*cricket chirping*...which leaves this person to ponder just what it is I'm supposed to use in place of "me"...

Whatever is going on in the world, looks like the scammers will always be with us. Lord love a duck -- even when it's dead and plopped down on somebody's head.:)
