Why, when reading that, did I have a Nigerian accent in my head?

my standard reply now, after trying to sell my exige --
that is great news !
i am so glad that you agree to buy at my price.
and that you don't ask any questions about my car until after you have agreed to buy, that is truely wonderful !!
paypal is fantastic for me as i have used it before and know just how secure it it, it is like a chocolate teapot.
how i wish you could come for inspection too, however i understand that money laundering must take a up a huge ammount of your time.
it is unfortunate that you will be away for nine days, however if you send me your sister and a goat for sacrifice i will keep the car muchly for you for the nine days
i feel i must congradulate the effort that has gone into this email, as i realise your grasp of english is pretty poor.
please remember to cut airholes in the box you send your sister and your goat in, perhaps a partition too so your sister isn't pregnant when she arrives ?
if your sister is pretty i may take 5 euros off the asking price

scams almost always ask on second email for paypal, and the exact way to sign up for it etc....

My Nigerian friend refers to and addresses most people as My Man! Or Bro! If it's a middle aged lady. Therefore, I suggest starting your email with My Man!

This one is brilliant........

Yep. That was the other one.

Why? I mean it's just my email address?

I keep thinking of this.
