People sometimes post comments to old entries on this site. Today, someone submitted my favorite comment of all time: Tips from a very smart CFO (scroll down for the comment). Is it real? Is it fake? Who knows.

It looks like one of those bazillion spam emails I get where they want me to help them invest their money and bring it into the united states. All I've seen it looks like an attempt to get my bank account information. I figure they'd offer to wire you the money, of course they'd need the routing transit number and the bank account number. Strangely, they seem to be the only messages that get through my Spam Assassin. That's the first I've seen posted on a blog though.

I think there is a 50/50 chance it's real... I wouldn't mind Ramit's personal help with my investments, just because he is Nigerian doesn't make it a scam does it? (ok, it does make you wonder why he would mention Nigeria)

and NO.. I have never sent my bank details to the ex nigerian oil minister's secretary to help get 13 mill US$ out of the country ;-)
