The Chinese Red Cross And April 1

April 1.  We all know what that usually means.

Except this year:  now the prank is to tell a colleague that, "yes, there IS toilet paper in the john"...when there ain't.

I knew that it wouldn't take long for the scammers out there to jump on the COVID-19 Hazmat wagon and craft some scams around it.

And here's one from the Chinese Red Cross, which I found particularly fitting:


I hope this email finds you in good health, especially this period the
Coronavirus is destroying human health and life.

 The Chinese Red Cross sponsored by chinese Billionaires Wang Jianlin, Jack Ma and others have donated 100 Million Dollars for saving lives of Coronavirus patients and other people in isolation or Quarantine worldwide, the sum of 1 million Dollars will
be sent to kind hearted individuals with integrity and honesty to provide Face
marks, protective hand gloves and medical wears and shoes to reach out to people in different countries of your own country.

  If you are willing to volunteer for this humanitarian task in your country, the
sum of 1 Million Dollars will be made available to you for reasonable fee processing.

You will be able to show some integrity before approval and acceptance

Best Regards,

Wang Jing

CHINESE RED CROSS  


Ain't that generous of the People's Republic what brought you the current pandumbic in the first place.

My character was all over this one with 'editing gone wild' tips from the vacationing pet rocks:

Herro

I hope this email finds you!  It sometime get lost when taking wrong toin at Albuquerque.   

Especially this period when our Made-in-China Coronavirus is destroying sales of beer and sauteed bat.

  The Chinese Red DoubleCross sponsored by chinese yenionaires Wang A Lang A Ding Dang, Jack Yo MaMa

and others have donated 100 Million yens for saving Herrary Crinton from obscurities associated with her testing negative for President of the United States going on four years now.

 

 

  If only she could have not fallen off the broom

so much.  Sales of her life-size infratable sex toy aren't doing so well either, since it leaks, squeaks, cackles and has an ass the size of a 747's First Class lounge. 

We all have our probrems.

 

It wasn't with any of that in mind that we are trying this out on you:  the sum of 1 million yens will
be sent to snowfrake-hearted individuals with a general rack of integrity and honesty to provide Face
marks, protective hand groves, medical wears and shoes to reach out to people in different countries,

pranets, sorar systems, or even in your own country of Portrand.
  

   If you are willing to volundeer for this fool's task in your country, the sum of 1 Million yens will not be made available to you, though certain fees will be assessed that after you pay, you still won't get something back. 

That how we rorr here in the former Peking Duck.
 

You will need to be able to show a comprete rack of common sensicals before approval and acceptance.

 Best Regards,

Ever'body Wang Chung tonight.

The scammer correctly discerned that there was no point in coming to bat on this one....
