Too funny not to share.

For those not familiar with Bernie Madoff perhaps not as funny.

At least we now know for certain that 419 scammers stay up to date on current events. LOL

Dear Friend ,

I am Mrs.Ruth Madoff, wife of bernard madoff.

I am actually going through some kind of difficult time with my family
right now, as my husband is at the Metropolitan Correctional Center, New
York City.
My husband Sentencing is scheduled for June 16, 2009 and he is likely to
face a maximum sentence of 150 years in prison and $170 billion in
restitution, so there is need for me to move out a lot of my personal
funds and personal belongings around the world , particularly  from
outside America, but i need somebody to trust now, because i cannot
receive funds here in America right now.

I would need your help in acquiring some properties and keeping some large
cash amount for me. but first i would  prefer to chat with you either on
yahoo chat or Skype. if you are not comfortable with yahoo then write me
,so we can communicate via email.

This is very urgent, i would have to entrust a large amount of money into
your hands  and some personal valuables. But this would have to be very
confidential, just between me and you, because the press are after  me
and my husband name all over the headlines, because of his Wall street
business.

Anyway! don’t be scared about the risk, it is a very safe deal i can
assure you of your confidentiality.

Yours Sincerely
Mrs. Ruth Alpern Madoff
