I'm so special --- Scam

“This afternoon I received a three-page single-spaced letter in the mail basically telling me how totally wonderful and awesome I am, with special hidden traits, (Jon already told me that) and that for absolutely no money, the sender would like to send me fantastic secrets of success from this ultra secret society. Here's how the letter starts. Trust me, it only gets better.



"Victoria Sawyer, please forgive us, but we have just taken a closer look at your profile. It turns out you're more special than any of us imagined! Victoria Sawyer, did you know that you possess some very rare, hidden traits? In fact, there is a famous person who possesses these same special, incredibly rare traits! It turns out that people who possess these same rare and often hidden traits that you do are some of the most famous and successful people on this planet! Victoria, you are indeed blessed! I know those around you don't know this yet, but they will! Down deep, you sense it, too. Right? I'm so excited for you!"

It continues: "Who are these gifted people and how did these gifted people find you? If we told you who we are, the association would be exposed and, believe me, our secrets are simply not for everyone but only a select few."

There is so much more in this letter. I'd share it with you, but then it wouldn't be a secret anymore, would it?


So I did a search and came up with this site. http://www.abovetopsecret.com/forum/thread68952/pg1 Turns out there are quite a few of us extremely rare and special people out there.


But in the meantime while I bask a while in my specialness, all you TTers can bow down and worship me, since I am so incredibly gifted and possessing of several rare traits and abilities. (At least Jon agrees with that statement) ;-)”

“all hail the wonderful Ruby!

here ya go honey,

In fact everyone is extremely rare and special, except for me. Someone had to be ordinary and "the same" so that others could be extraordinary and different.

Sigh --- but at least sameness and ordinariness is peaceful, at times.
