I am finally rich and getting out of the security business! I always hoped this would happen. I've bought a lot of lottery tickets in my life, and I've busted my rather large butt, running my security business; Corporate Defense Strategies and other security companies since 1982, and stilll - I never got rich, until NOW. I am getting $40 million dollars transferred into my bank account from the king of Nigeria's son! I get half of it, just for letting him park that money in my account for a week or two - won't my bank manager be surprised! My usual bank balance is quite a bit less than that!
I wrote the good Prince back and we have communicated by phone a lot too(my trap line of course). But I wonder why he hasn't called me since last week.

See I told him I work as a civilian in the FBI Fraud Unit, and agents go to Nigeria all of the time, and they said they would pick up the money for me, and help the kings family, and me of course!

My new friend Prince Mumbo Jumbo Joey Bag O'Donuts was kinda shocked that I was in the security business, had some working relationships with IT people, law enforcement, and knew Steve Hunt CPP CISSP.

Well Prince Mumbo will finally get the help his family needs, and I can finally get out of this business and live like a king myself. Does anyone want to go to Cabo with me - when I get the dough, I'm buyin'. I probably won't be at ISC this year either - LOL.

If anyone else wants me to help them by sending me millions of dollars to my bank account from Nigeria or anywhere else, hey I'm not picky in this economy, write me at j prusan at corporate defense dot com .

Not sure what the previous comment is about, or if it is real,or if it is only meant to make Prusan look silly.

can it be deleted?

It's a bit out of place, but still funny. Jeff is referring to the now infamous and still perpetrated email fraud sent to everyone and thier grandmother over the last five years where a Nigerian requests help collecting lottery funds.
