  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

Most people know about this stuff, but some don't still.. (Not sure if am posting in right forum here)
Typical email scam, have been getting these for years now but this one slipped through..total nonsense..NEVER reply to these at all.... the 'girl' claims to be from Africa but the IP location is Bulgaria and there is Bulgarian writing at the bottom which translates "End forwarded a letter"..:sigh:

"I am Miss Aaren IB. Coulibaly, and I am 23 years old female from the Republic of
Ivory Coast, I am the daughter of Late Chief Ibrahim Coulibaly (also known as
General I.B). My late Father was a well known Ivory Coast military leader. He
died on Thursday 28 April 2011(a date I will never forget in my life) and this
was as a result of a fight with the Republican Forces of Ivory Coast (FRCI).
I decided to
travel out to Republic of South Africa as a Diplomatic refugee and now I am in
the South African Diplomatic Refugee Camp. I am seeking for your friendship and
investment assistance. My father of blessed memory deposited the sum of US$20.5
Million in his foreign bank account with the First National bank of South
Africa (FNB) with my name as the next of kin of the fund.

I have contacted the Bank here in South Africa to clear the deposit but the head
of the bank’s international wire-transfer Manager told me that my late father
placed an instruction on the deposited fund that I must present a foreign
trustee who will help me for investment and management of the fund, this was
due to my young age as at the time of deposit.

(blah blah blah I will not quote all the lying nonsense here)

I got a similar one a while ago saying that they'd been trying to find a living relative of someone who had passed away to give away their millions of dollars, and they thought it was me based on my surname, allegedly. Scams make me angry because the most vulnerable members of society are the ones who fall for them.
