Benin Western Union Scam

You know, I have to admit this - I had to go and look up where Benin was - but I'm SO glad I did - it looks a great country! It must be kind of hard with your big neighbours on the border - especially Nigeria - but you seem to be solidly there getting on with it in your own way - Congratulations!!!. Maybe when your funds start arriving I'll use some to come visit - actually yes - let's make a date to do just that!!!

Oh, I minor quibble - "$1,5000.00" is not anything - you left some zero's out - it's certainly not "$1.5M":) And why the capitalization of Western Union? No idea what that's about
