In reality, when you send snail-mail, the address could be something like:
Mr Richard Roe
123 The High Street
Trotters Bottom
near Pigs End
Middx HA8 8UT
UK
or
Jock MacTavish
The Brewery
Glasgow GU9 7TR
Scotland (optional - you would never say England but might specify the smaller places or they get pissed off that England supports them and the English don't give a crap about them. Actually, no one who lives inside the M25 even acknowledges that anyone lives outside of it)
UK
Note that Middx is short for Middlesex which the Royal Mail do not recognise and is not on maps any more but everyone still uses it.

"269 counts of wire fraud and money laundering"? Hopefully, that'll put him away for a few years.
Pity it's only a middle man though.
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Yup! He should get a one year sentence for each of the 269 counts. These sentences to be served sequentially!

Not if this was the UK. If it was the UK he'd be suing the police for reading his emails.

Thanks man. Although it's not as easy affording prostitutes these days with the economy and all. So sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do...

He was just the middle man. The main perpetrators are probably in Lagos somewhere.
