They send that to my school email address probably 2 or 3 times a month. Im sure most every student at U of M gets that email.

"Christophe" is simply computer speak for christopher, for some reason computer shortens it , I get a lot of mail addressed that way.

Nonsense, really? You gotta be kiddin' me! I sent them all the info they wanted, and then some. It all seemed so legit. I don't think I believe you. Next you'll be telling me I really didn't with the Angola lottery! I don't know about you guys.
