Hi,
Nigerians are good footballers. So also some African nations. Incidentally some ex-players are earning by internet fraud. I used to know a man by the name of Peter, an ex-footballer and married to an anglo-indian and later arrested by Calcutta police for credit card fraud. But mostly they earn bread by playing club football in India. All big clubs got African players.
Thanx,
Truly,
Amitava

if you even thought that u could have been cheated by this mail, then perhaps u r v likely to get cheated in future since such mails keep propping up time and again in various forms.

Simple solution. Just press SHIFT+Delete to permanently delete it 🙂
