I received the following from email address m.ellwood06@yahoo.com claiming to be Mike:

Good Morning (Help Needed)

How are you,

Sorry for any inconvenience, I'm in a Awful situation. Am stranded here in Manila - Philippine, I came here for a conference and I just had my bags stolen from me and personal belongings. I have tried to sort things out with the necessary authorities but nothing is really working out, the bad news is my flight will be leaving very soon. I need a quick loan from you.Please let me know if you can help.

Kind Regards

Micheal


They did not even spell Michael correctly. I suspect someone has phished his name.

Yup... Got 2 of them

If you are going to help him, I am stuck in my living room and the bottle of Scotch is nearly empty. Anything along the lines of a single malt close to my age will work. My allied forces are poised to launch a devastating wave against the fearsome French foes but I cannot move forward without my Scotch allied force....
