Today when I checked my email, I was surprised to find an email with the subject “Rose order.” The email came from a man named Ken Larry. Mr. Larry wishes to order 200 dozens red stem roses from me. The roses are to be delivered by freight and he wants top know what method of payment I accept.
I wonder what he is going to do with 200 dozen red stem roses. I’m more curious why he is emailing me for them. Wouldn’t it be cheaper to just grow your own rose garden?
So, what’s the strangest email that you have ever received?
If you liked this post, why not buy me a coffee?

Either there’s gonna be a lucky girl, or someone is pulling your leg, Rose.
The weirdest email I got was someone congratulating me for my dad had been elected as governor or something. I was like..
huh? Of course, they got the wrong person.

Heh… maybe he has a bunch of girlfriends all over the place!
One of my oddest emails was probably the one sent directly to one of my teddy bears. It said a lawyer had been looking all over for him because one of the teddy’s family members (somebody very wealthy) had just died in a plane crash. He had no heirs, and so all the money was to go to the teddy bear, who was the closest family member who could be found.
It would have been nice if Teddy could have cashed in… I hope he would have continued to let me share his roof, and perhaps taken me with him on holidays to Bermuda.

Maybe his daughter is getting married, or his wife caught him doing the wild thing with another woman.
But it sounds to me like he’s fishing for your personal information in a weird way.
