FEDEX COURIER SERVICE, WEST AFRICAThe picture is actually a real one taken from the FedEx web page, of David F. Rebholz, who rejoices in the title of "President, Chief Executive Officer, FedEx Ground". Needless to say the scam has nothing to do with either FedEx or him.

Stupid FedEx scam. How stupid do scammers get?
FedEx have a package for me. Or so a scammer says. Feel free to email him at live-fedexng@live.com or SMS him on +234-706-700-2889. Please be rude. [P.S. I just got a message from him, his cellphone number works, as does his email address.]
