I know some of you were uncomfortable with this at first, but you started to come around, maybe when she kept after the money when the supposedly rightful owner came forward, or maybe when you found out she was a Confederate traitor, or maybe when you got sick of her lack of punctuation.
But some of you are still uneasy, wondering if maybe there isn't some fantastic coincidence, and it'll turn out that her brother actually did lose money and really was stranded in Bratislava. I'll admit, there's a part of me that worried that that might be the case.
But now she's busted. She makes a couple last attempts at a guilt trip before apparently giving up on me, but in doing so, she gives herself up.

First of all, she says she'll never get the money for Greg. The first thing I remembered was that Greg is her husband, who incidentally, was not only not in Europe, but at home last weekend, doing some volunteer work around the neighborhood. You can read about it here. He sounds like a nice guy.
Anyway, my sisters married guys with the same names as their brothers, so I couldn't rule it out in her case, but when she sent that mass e-mail, I saw a couple other Blacks (her maiden name) -- Adam, Aaron, Mary -- but none named Greg. Sure, that's not conclusive, but then I saw the original post.
Her brother took advantage of lax regulations in the Amsterdam probate courts to change his first name from Aaron to Greg! I'll tell you what, if I were stuck in Europe, that wouldn't be the first thing on my mind.
Anyway, this chick is toast, but we still have a couple options:
-- Send her an e-mail explaining what's going on.
-- Send her an e-mail explaining what's going on and inviting her to come look at this page.
-- Send her an e-mail explaining what's going on and inviting her to come look at this page, and CC the 80-plus people she wrote to about her virus.
-- Or keep screwing with her. I was thinking it could be funny for her to get a call from the "Richmond post office" saying that she can come down to claim her envelope.
What's it gonna be?

Well my post office says they don't have any letter where I owe postage. Also you told me you had mailed it from the post office and then in another email you said something about talking to the mailman at your house about the letter and telling him the story. I am praying if you did mail it you didn't tell him that there was all that money in that envelope or you know what happen to it!! Maybe it will get to me one day but it seems like my parents are gonna have to send my brother some money so he can get home. I appreciate you being honest and saying you found it but the thing is I have never gotten it so its hard to tell where it is now!?!? You can answser that and live with yourself knowing you sent it or not. I just would think you would be just as worried since it was your money you had to send since you had spent my brothers money the first time for your car you said. Ok well take care and I don't know what else to say. If it ever arrives I will let you know.

RE: still nothingToday I got a mass e-mail from her saying that her computer had been infected with a virus and would be out of commission for a few days for repairs. That e-mail, coupled with this last one, gave me all I need to settle it in my mind.
Oh well I guess I will never get the money back for Greg. Thank you though. I guess we are both out money now. Well have a good rest of your summer.
