REFLECTOR: Philippines Trip...Help

Jeff,

These are Nigerian scams. They hack the email account and send this email to everyone in the address book. If anyone actually replies to the email it is redirected to the scammer's email. It does not actually go back to the person who has had their email account hacked. 

Since we are the reflector the redirects will not work.

>> Hello & Merry Christmas,
>> 
>> I really hope you get this fast. I could not inform everyone about my trip to Makati, Philippines for a program because it was impromptu. The program was successful, but my journey has turned sour I was mugged at gun point and all my valuables were stolen, It was a terrible experience. I need your help         financially to get back home, I need to settle some outstanding hotel bills and also take a cab to the airport and also i've reported to the cops here and canceled all our cards,it appeared I had acted quickly enough or they almost would have succeeded in cleaning out my bank account.
>> 
>> I contacted my bank, but the best they can do is to mail a new card which will take 2 to 3 days to get here.Western Union Transfer is the fastest option to wire the funds to me.
>> 
>> All i need right now is $1,890.00, but anything you can spare pending when i get things straighten out will be appreciated and I promise to refund as soon as i arrive home safely. You can wire it to my name from any western union outlet around, or you can also send money online, visit : www.westernunion.com

>> Here are the details you need to get it to me;
>> 
>> Full Name - Jean Prudhomme
