I got this email in my spam folder and had to read it...first, my being in the US and not drinking this beer, or entering any contests, I knew it was fake.
The fact it was not addressed to me, and says I was one of 10 that won over a million euros certainly made is more believable (yeah right).
One look at the email addresses tells me this is all hooey too - I doubt Amstel-Pilsner uses bellsouth and yahoo for their email addresses!
Ooops, I've not kept my numbers confidential - so if you feel like collecting 1.55 million euros on my behalf, please send me 10% up front to show your good faith LOL LOL LOL
thanks

Your going to upset some people - I suggest an amendment - slippy had to make some retractions and apologies for something similar last year.
For anyone who does not realise, the link is an automated one to your own profile.

Don't bother remembering. Instead, make sure your link actually points to Leroy's profile for everyone :-)

A favorite question of mine...
Phone rings, I answer "Christopher Perry Photography"
Woman on phone says "Do you do wedding photography?"
I respond "Yes, I do. When is your date?"
She tells me "Saturday October 13 - are you available?"
"Yes, I am, would you like to come to the studio and we can talk about your wedding and I can show you some of my work"
She says "Yes I'd like to come over, but I work all week, so we'd ahve to meet on the weekend. Do you work Saturdays?"
That's when I want to raise my prices!
