"What the... Hell...?" Dating Style

When I started this little experiment in online venting, I made it a point to myself not to delve into personal things, dating especially. At the very least, it's rude and unfair to the lady involved and I won't be party to that kind of thing.

But there are always exceptions to every rule. This one's choice... another "What the... hell...?" moment and I don't think it even really counts as I don't know who she is and certainly didn't ask for this. Today, in the Inbox of my online profile (oh, right, like you don't have one), I received the following from somewhere in Nigeria... (quoting via the magic of cut & paste)

Hello,
Although you may not know me as i do,but in the other hand i think we will knoe each other soonest. Don't think that I tell you enough how much you truly mean to me and how much I love you. I am proud of your achievements and impressed by your strong will. Although I don't constantly say it, I am proud to see you develop into who you are becoming. I love you dearly and you constantly remain in my sweetest thoughts.... Never doubt how much you mean to me and nevertheless how much I love you. I will remain faithfully yours until the end of time.And i will like you to tell me more about you.Hope to hear a good reply from you.

I could spend paragraphs picking this part, but I'll just ask a simple question to my reading audience: Am I wrong to be completely creeped out by this? And where's my $78 million? She's supposed to have some relative with $78 million. If she really loves me, show me the money!

That is seriously creepy although you could return the favour. She did afterall ask that you tell her more about yourself, just pick one of the greatest loonies from history and write away ...
