Title: EMAIL HOAXES AND CHAIN EMAILS
Post by: neilep on 06/09/2006 16:46:07
Dear All,

There seems to be a preponderance of scam emails going around and chain emails too.

Please do not be concerned about them. These people are very clever at making you think that they are writing specifically to you...but when you really read the letter it is just clever in it's approach.

They might say...' we have seen your profile '...but have they actually mentioned the site ?...and have they addressed you by your real name other than Dear sir/Madam..Dear One etc etc ?



Please feel free to send me all the emails you get and especially the chain emails which hint that something may go wrong if you do not send it...I just bin them and I am still here after years and years of receiving all this crap...I just laugh at the banality of it all.

So, I offer my inbox as your scam/chain email depository...just send them to me and forget about them.  withdrawnmist@gmail.com

Men are the same as women, just inside out !

Lookie what I found in my emailsy today...interesting that I just received it today...hmmm?

REPLY BACK TO MY PRIVATE EMAIL BELOW From :Fatimah mohammed
E-mail:( fatimahmoh888@yahoo.fr ) Private:( fatimahmoh833@yahoo.fr)                Dear One(like Neilsy said, no name),
Permit me to inform you of my desire of going into business relationship with you, After reading your profile in this site I decided to confide in you this simple and sincere business.  I am fatimah mohammeh  the only surviving daughter of late Mr and Mrs ibrahim mohammed from Liberia who was killed by the former war Lord Mr Charles Taylor. My late father was accused of having hand in sponsorship of the troup that tried to overthrow the his government during his time as the president of Liberia He was arrested and beaten to a comma and was later thrown into prison where he was secretly murdered . My late mother was also mudered by the then government alongside my only sister leaving me, I survived this because I was in school outside my country Liberia. But during my one of my visits to the prison where he was incacerated before his death , he disclosed to me about the deposit of Twelve Million United States Dollars ($12M)(Exchange rate changes all the time???) he made with one of the banks in Cote D' Ivoire, he told me that his lawyer has all the documents covering all the transactions he made and the documents covering the deposit,he also told me that the deposit was made with my name as the next of kin and the beneficiarry to the fund, he told me that why he made the deposit in Cote D'Ivoire was that Cote D' Ivoire was the only peacefull(yeah, right...uh, I don't think so!!!) country in Africa where he find safe to hide his hard earned money. He also advise me to leave Liberia for Cote D' Ivoire where they Government will not find me there I will locate the bank where he deposited the money and seek for a foriegn trust worthy partner Oversea(why oversea? Because they maybe a bit naive and not know this is a scam?) who will assist me in transfering the money and Invest it properly in a very profitable business(what type of profitable business...scam business??).
I have now located the bank here in Cote D' Ivoire(the name of the bank please...) and confirm the existence of the money(how can you without proper info on account and why can't you get it out if you are the beneficiary??).Dear, I am honourably(dishonourably is the word here) seeking your assistance in the following ways:   (1) To Help me transfer this money into your account(why not keep it in the account you found as it is a peaceful country and is safe for you to go to!) for Investment purpose in your Country(How can you invest over here when you have to apply for political assylum?? and that takes a bit of time)(would you really trust a stranger with 12 Million USD, just by reviewing a profile?)
(2) To serve as a guardian of this fund(I cannot do this without legal POA here in the US, I wonder what I would need overseas..as "proper documentation" as documents can be doctor'ed or paying one of the judicial magistrates/ministers under the table would produce illegal document)
(3) To make arrangement for me to come over to your country to further my education and to secure a resident permit in your country. (hehe, sure, I want you to be my foreign exchange student...I want to sponsor you, would this be tax deductible?)
Furthermore, you indicate your options towards assisting me as I believe that this transaction would be concluded within a couple of days(Pretty fast for International documents produced...) you signify interest to assist me.  Anticipating to hear from you soon.
Thanks and God bless.
Best regards,
fatimah mohammed

These are so much fun to address, I am with you Neil...hehe  I had one who kept up communication and tried to convince me through their frustration for a month..hehe...I told him I would turn him over to Bank Authoritatives and much more as I am sure they would love to know where the Money is...hehe He played right along as a banking authoritarian was helping me deal with the matter...investigated...blank address, nothing was legit...as we tried to bust these stupid criminals...geez..

My late father was accused of having hand in sponsorship of the troup that tried to overthrow his government,He was arrested and beaten to a comma and was later thrown into prison where he was secretly murdered . My late mother was also mudered by the then government alongside my only sister leaving me, I survived this because I was in school outside my country Cote D'Ivoire.
But during my one of my visits to the prison where he was incacerated before his death , he disclosed to me about the deposit of Five Million Five Hundred United States Dollars ($5.5M) he made with one of the banks here in Cote D' Ivoire, he told me where to find all the documents covering all the transactions he made and the documents covering the deposit,he also told me that the deposit was made with my name as the next of kin and the beneficiarry to the fund. I wish to request for your assistance in investing this money in lucrative venture under your directives and guidiance in your country. I want you to assist me for the transfer of this sum of Five million, five hundred thousand United State Dollars (USD5.500,000) to your account in your country hence I will give you the contact of the bank where the money is, so that you can contact them immediately and discuss with them since I do not know much about financial issues.

Here you go!  It looks legit...but don't believe it!

Dear Lo,

My name is Michael S. Smith and a Playwright Artist by profession, I am 40 years old Christian, single and based in Lagos, Nigeria but have close to Sixty works [film Storylines and scripts] to my credit with best intention to get them produce in USA. Warner Bros., Paramount Communications, Twentieth Century Fox, Taurus Film Company, and Odyssey Distributors, Inc were the Production Companies that want to sign me in for production contracts and that’s why I employed the service of a famous Matawan based Literary Agent that represent my work from year 2000 till date.

I saw and read through your profile via net at ------ and found it interested then decide to contact and establish a serious relationship with you and with the hope that you will not disappoint me or to turn my request for friendship upside down. I believe that I don’t have to start telling you juicy story in order to win your heart and love but I believe that when time comes you will know and understand me better due to the fact that when time comes, you will have access to my US based agent and you will be able to see and read some of my Sixty works that I have with her in her agency.

Kindly be informed that you don’t have to start judging or condemning me because of I’m not an American Citizen or because I’m living at a far away distance to you or because of the immoral attitude of some among our citizens in your country due to the fact that human beings are not the same in behavior or character. I’m assuring you that when time comes you will know who I am, the type of person I am, what I can do and what I cannot do either right away from my country here in Nigeria or when I come to start dwelling with you in United States because I will open your eyes to various lucrative businesses that you can do and that will be profitable to you, and I will likewise reveal the mode and shady deals that some of our citizens used to do in order to dupe foreigners of their wealth so as to prevent you and your people from falling into their traps.

I will be very much glad if you could please put this into consideration and accept my proposal so as to enable me establish a serious relationship with you, and I promise you that you will not regret knowing and establishing a serious relationship with me and likewise you will not feel or have any disappointment from me after establishing a serious relationship with each other. Please you are to tell me your full name, e-mail address, contact address, and phone number in your reply for easy communications Thanks in anticipation of your prompt and positive response to this request.

Sincerely Yours,

Michael S. Smith

And no, I haven't been to confession, haven't actually been to one in years. They tried to make me go when I was at school, but I refused. I told my dad about it and he was a little upset of the fact that they tried to force me. He came close to writing a letter to them to voice his opinions [;)]

So could you end up getting 5% of a good few million as well then  [;)]

For some reason they must think that I will fall for it if they tell me that someone with the same surname has died and I could try and claim their millions  [::)]
Someone even tried using the same story on me  [???] duh

How did it all go Neil  [:X]

            Dear beloved in Christ,

I am the above named person from Angola. I am married to Mr.George Moahiri, who worked with Angola embassy in Ivory Coast for nine years before he died in the year 2005. We were married for eleven years without a child. He died after a brief illness that lasted for only four days. Before his death we were both born again Christian. Since his death I decided not to remarry or get a child outside my matrimonial home which the Bible is against. When my late husband was alive he deposited the sum of Seven Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($7.500.000) now in the confidence Bank account here in Abidjan Cote d'Ivoire West Africa. Recently, my Doctor told me that I would not last for the next eight months due to cancer problem. The one that disturbs me most is my stroke sickness. Having known my condition I decided to donate this fund to a church that will utilize this money the way I am going to instruct herein. I want a church that will use this fund for orphanages, widows, propagating the word of God and to endeavour that the house of God is maintained. The Bible made us to understand that 'Blessed is the hand that giveth.

I took this decision because I don´t have any child that will inherit this money and my husband relatives are not Christians and I don´t want my husband´s efforts to be used by unbelievers. I don´t want a situation where this money will be used in an ungodly way. This is why I am taking this decision. I am not afraid of death hence I know where I am going. I know that I am going to be in the bosom of the Lord. Exodus 14 VS 14 says that 'the lord will fight my case and I shall hold my peace'. I don´t need any telephone communication in this regard because of my health hence the presence of my husband´s relatives around me always. I don´t want them to know about this development.

With God all things are possible. As soon as I receive your reply I shall give you the contact of the Bank. I will also issue you an authority letter that will prove you the present beneficiary of this fund. I want you and the church to always pray for me because the lord is my shephard. My happiness is that I lived a life of a worthy Christian. Whoever that Wants to serve the Lord must serve him in spirit and Truth. Please always be prayerful all through your life, any delay in your reply will give me room in sourcing another ministry organisation for this same purpose. Please assure me that you will act accordingly as I stated herein.

Hoping to receive your reply.

Remain blessed in the Lord.

Mrs.Boale Carole Moahiri

 I recieved this email tonight!


                  EMAIL    Sgt.ShelbyCross@hotmail.com



How are you and your family? Hope all is well.

My name is Staff Sgt. Shelby Cross; I am an American soldier, serving in the
military with the army’s 3rd infantry division. With a very desperate need for
assistance, I have summed up courage to contact you.

I found your contact particulars in an address journal. I am seeking your kind
assistance to move the sum of US$8m (eight million United States dollars) to you
in United States; as far as I can be assured that my share will be safe in your
care until I complete my service here.

Source of money:

Some money in US dollars were discovered in dog kennels at a farm house and
guest houses in an estate near one of Saddam’s old palaces in Baghdad, Iraq
during an operation, and it was agreed by Staff Sgt. Kenneth Buff, Sgt. 1st
Class Daniel Van Ess and I that some part of this money be shared amongst us
before informing anybody about it. Since both of them saw the money first, they
did the informing, while I played the outsider to protect our interest. This was
quite an illegal thing to do, but I tell you what? No compensation can make up
for the risk we have taken with our lives in this hell hole, in which my brother
in-law was killed by a road side bomb last time. You will find the story of this
money on the web addresses below;

Http://www.washingtonpost.com/ac2/wp-dyn/a35080-2003apr24

http://www.right-thoughts.us/index.php/weblog/comments/the_first_thing_you_know_ol_saddams_a_millionaire/

http://www.jonathanforeman.com/military/nyp_iraq/04192003_chest.html

The above figure was given to me as my share, and to conceal this kind of money
became a problem for me, even after the initial probe of all soldiers of our
command which I was cleared from; so with the help of a British contact working
here and his office enjoy some immunity, I was able to get the package out to a
safe location entirely out of trouble spot. He does not know the real contents
of the package, and believes that it belongs to a British/American medical
doctor who died in a raid here in Iraq, and before giving up, trusted me to hand
over the package to his family in United States. I have now found a much secured
way of getting the package out of Iraq to your country for you to pick up, and I
will discuss this with you when I am sure that you are willing to assist me, and
I believe that my money will be well secured in your hand because you have the
fear of God.

I want you to tell me how much you will take from this money for the assistance
you will give to me. One passionate appeal I will make to you is not to discuss
this matter with anybody, should you have reasons to reject this offer, please
and please destroy this message as any leakage of this information will be too
bad for us soldier’s here in Iraq and tarnish the reputation of  other services
men. I do not know how long we will remain here, and I have been shot, wounded
and survived two suicide bomb attacks by the special grace of God, this and
other reasons I will mention later has prompted me to reach out for help, I
honestly want this matter to be resolved immediately, please contact me as soon
as possible with my private e-mail address  which is for now
my only way of communication until I specify otherwise. ssg.shelby@hotmail.com
God bless you and your family.

Sgt. Shelby Cross

[size=08pt] Subject: Miguel Wayne. Date: 1/14/2007 10:45 A.M. Pacific Standard time From: Miguel111wayne@yahoo.se[/size]
Dear Friend,
It is indeed my pleasure to write to you this letter, which I believe will be a suprise,as we are both complete strangers.
As you read this, I don't want you to feel sorry for me, because I believe everyone will die someday. My name is Miguel Wayne, a former merchant in Dubai, in the U.A.E. I have been diagnosed with Esophageal cancer which was discovered very late, due to my laxity in caring for my health.
It has defiled all forms of medicine, and right now I have only about a few months to live, according to medical experts. I have not particularly lived my life so well, as I never really cared for anyone not even myself but my business.Though I am very rich, I was never generous,I was always hostile to people and only focus on my business as that was the only thing I cared for,but now I regret all this as I now know that there is more to life than just wanting to have or make all the money in the world.
I believe when I have a second chance to come to this world I would live my life a different way from how I had lived it, now that it is dark for me, I have willed and given most of my properties and assets to my immediate and extended family members and as well as a few close friends.
To correct my wrong past life, I have decided to give alms to charity organizations,as I want this to be one of the last good deeds I do on earth. So far, I have distributed money to some charity organizations in the U.A.E, Algeria and Malaysia. Now that my health has deteriorated so badly,I cannot do this my self anymore.
I once asked members of my family to close one of my accounts and distribute the money which I have there to charity organization in Bulgaria and Pakistan, they refused and kept the money to themselves.
Hence, I do not trust them anymore, as they seem not to be contended with what I have left for them. The last of my money which no one knows of is the huge cash deposit of six million dollars that I have with a Fudicial Company Abroad,I will want you to help me collect this deposit and dispatched it to charity organizations and you must be sending me informations of how it was disbursed either by email or otherwise . I have set aside 5% for you for your time and patience.Thanks.
Miguel Wayne.
NB Please do not share my email addess with anyone as I have received some emails from some unscrupulos people claiming to be charity organisations and other weird stories.

head office are not aware of and will never be aware of . I have since place
this funds on what we call SUSPENSE ACCOUNT without any beneficiary as

Hello Sir,
 
Please, may i ask for your patience to go through my story below and let me know if I will have your confidence to help me achieve the desired success of what I am going to disclose to you in this message?

My name is Thomas Peprah, I am contacting you on behalf of my elder brother Dr. Kwame Peprah, who is being incarcerated by the ruling party of Republic of Ghana , my father is politician under the platform of National Democratic Congress (NDC) executive committee. He along two other members, Alhaji Ibrahim Adam former Minister of Food and Agriculture, George Sipah Yankey, former Director of the Legal Sector, Private and Financial Institutions Division of the Ministry of Finance, were sentence to various jail terms, by the current ruling party New Patriotic Party (NPP).
 
My aim of contacting you is to crave your indulgence to assist me in securing some funds abroad for safe keeping on behalf of my elder brother, which he incidentally kept to finance the forth coming elections in 2008. Fortunately my elder brother were able to deposit the money (anonymously) with the security company's vault here in Accra-Ghana pending when the fund would be needed, which he told the security company authorities that it was precious item belonging to his foreign business partner in abroad for safety of the money not to be tampered until when he will be ready to ship it abroad.
 
The need to contact you arose from the fact that the present government is bringing down on the opposition and trying to trace all the funds that belong to it, which if they succeed in tracing this fund to my elder brother, they will seize it and thereby incapacitating his campaign abilities. Here my elder brother advised me to look for a foreigner that will be reliable and trustworthy to assist me to stand as my elder brother's foreign business partner abroad whom my elder brother made the deposit on his behalf, to claim the box of money from the security company and ship it overseas for your safe hand keeping in other to avoid any trace from the ruling party in government.
 
All I need from you is an assurance that you can handle the amount involved fifty two million United States dollars only (US$52,000,000) comfortably and that I can also trust you with this arrangement.
 
My elder brother is promising 25% of the whole amount for any assistance, so please get back to me as soon as possible if you will assist me in doing this business so that i will update my elder brother at the prison and get more details to give you.
 
I am not going to contact anybody else until i am satisfied that you are not going to be part of this project, please reply quick on willingness to enable me give you further details, since time is in essence.
 
Also I want you to carefully read this websites bellow and understand more about my father and his colleagues.

I am RICH !!


Dear Friend, (AND I HAVE A NEW FRIEND TOO---LIFE IS GOOD !)

I am Morgan Blair the director in charge of Auditing and Accounting  Department of UBS Investment Bank - London, and also the account officer of Mr. Hassain Balhas Ghadar, (THE MD MENEMENLIOGLU CONSTRUCTION SARL)of Israeli Origin. Unfortunately he died in the plane crash of Union Transport Africans Flight Boeing 727 in Cotonou Benin Republic on the December 25,2003. You may read more stories about the crash on visiting these websites:

http://www.cnn.com/2003/WORLD/africa/12/26/benin.crash/

Before his death on the 25th December 2003, Mr.Hassain Balhas Ghadar had a fixed deposit account with the bank and no other person outside the bank knows about this account or any thing concerning it, the account has no other beneficiary and my investigation proved that his supposed next of kin died along with him in the crash. Since then I have made several enquiries to locate any of my clients extended relatives, this has also proved unsuccessful.

After these several unsuccessful attempts, I decided to contact you. I contacted you to assist in transferring the money left behind by my client to your nominated account before the bank confiscates the fund.

Consequently, since l have been unsuccessful in locating the relatives for over 5 weeks now. I seek your consent, to present you as the next of kin of the deceased so that the proceeds of this account valued@US$55.5 million can be paid into your account and thereafter you and l can share the money.70% to me and my colleagues 30% to you. We shall procure all necessary legal documents that can be used to back up the claimas we progress. All I require is your honest co-operation to enable me seeing this deal through.

I guarantee that this deal will be executed under a legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any breach of the law. All document of transaction shall be destroyed immediately we receive this money leaving no trace behind. If this proposal is acceptable to you, kindly email me indicating your interest.Also include your telephone number for easy communication.

Have a nice day and God bless.

Sincerely,

Morgan Blair

From:   Mr. John Peter <peter_ejikee1@yahoo.fr>
To:   
Date:   Thu, 22 Nov 2007 10:50 AM

Goodday!!!
 
I have been waiting for you since to contact me for your Confirmable Bank Draft
of $850,000 United States Dollars, but I did not hear from you since for a
couple of weeks now. Then I went to the bank to confirm if the draft has expired
or getting near to expire and BEN the Director Bank of Africa told me that
before the draft will get to your hand that it will expire. So I told him to
cash the $850,000 USD UNITED STATES DOLLARS to cash payment to avoid losing this
funds under expiration as I will be out out of the country for a 3 Months Course
and I will not come back till ending of January 2008.
 
What you have to do now is to contact IMPEX COURIER SERVICES as soon as possible
to know when they will deliver your Consignment to you because of the expiring
date. For your information, I have paid for the delivering Charge, Insurance
premium.
 
The only money you will send to the IMPEX COURIER SERVICES to deliver your
Consignment direct to your postal Address in your country is ($105.00 US) One
Hundred & Five United States Dollars only being Security Keeping Fee of the
Courier Company so far.Again, don't be deceived by anybody to pay any other
money except $105.00 US Dollars. I would have paid that but they said no because
they don't know when you will contact them and in case of demurrage.
 
You have to contact IMPEX COURIER SERVICES now for the delivery of your Draft
with this information bellow;
 
Directors Name: REV MARK KELLY.
 
Companys Name:IMPEX COURIER SERVICES
Email Address: (scvecccompany.impex@yahoo.es  )
 
TelFax +229 93 66 29 12
 
Finally, make sure that you reconfirm your Postal address and Direct telephone
number to them again to avoid any mistake on the Delivery and ask them to give
you the tracking number to enable you track your package over there and know
when it will get to your address. Let me repeat again, try to contact them as
soon as you receive this mail to avoid any further delay and remember to pay
them their Security Keeping fee of $105.00 US Dollars for their immediate
action.
 
Note this. The IMPEX COURIER SERVICES don't know the contents of the Box. I
registered it as a BOX of Africa cloths. They did not know the contents was
money. this is to avoid them delaying with the BOX. Don’t let them know that box
contents money ok.
I am waiting for your urgent response.
 
Yours Faithfully,
 
Mr. John  Peter

Peace be unto you my good friend. I am t he only surviving child of the Abdullah Ö calan,The leader of the Kurdistan Worker s Party (PKK).My father Abdullah Öcalan,a c tively fought for the liberation and un i fication of our people (the Kurds) unde r one sovereign nation which earned him t he support of many and being branded a reb el by others. He amassed a lot of money garnered from supporters and sympathisers alike from which he kept quite a lot for our family. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki /Abdullah_%C3%96calan , Before his sudde n arrest in 1999,he confided in me the w hereabouts of this money and instructed m e to find means of investing the funds f ar away from the reach of the Turkish go vernment who have frozen most of the acc o unts and assets of the PKK.I need to, m o re than ever invest this money for the be nefit of my three year old son Hassan. He is all that is left of the Öcalan fam ily the rest have been hunted and killed by agents of the Turkish government. A few months ago I was diagnosed with cancer a n d was told by doctors that I have not l o ng to live. My dear father will not be r eleased by the Turkish government any t im e soon.All I ask of you is to assist i n the transfer and investment of the fund s in a neutral country on behalf of Hassa n, my son till he is of age. Hamad Öcalan.

There is US$ 8,370,000.00 deposited, I alone have the  deposit
details and they will release the deposit to no one unless I
instruct them to do so. I alone know of the existence of  this
deposit for as far as the finance firm, the transaction with our
deceased customer concluded when I sent the funds to the firm,
all outstanding interactions in relation to the file are just
customer services and due process. The finance firm has no single
idea of what's the history or nature of the deposit. They are
simply awaiting instructions to release the deposit to any party
that comes forward. This is the situation. This bank has spent
great amounts of money trying to track  this man's family; they
have investigated for months and have found no family. The
investigation has come to an end.

If you give me positive signals,I will initiate this process
towards a conclusion.Please observe this instruction religiously.
Please note again, I am a happily married with two kids. I send
you this mail not without a measure of fear as to what the
consequences might be, but I know within me that nothing ventured
is nothing gained and that success and riches never come easy or
on a platter of gold.

I await your response.

Dear sir/ma,

My name is Ben Morgan. I'm a freelance researcher; I'd be very interested
in offering you a Paying Part-Time Job Offer, in which you'd earn a lot. I
just resigned my job as a research scientist for NRI (National Research
Institute), but I still work as a freelance consultant for the instistute,
which gives me very much time to do my own work which is basically being a
freelance researcher, who'd be employed by research institutes to do
research projects anywhere in the world.

"WHAT YOU NEED TO DO FOR US: Presently, I've just been granted funding to
head a research project in the tropical regions of West Africa, regarding
rare and vulnerable plant species; and this would be commencing very soon;
however, my fundings were by my American counterparts, which sent me the
bunch of payments mostly in US-based Money Orders. Getting an accountant
in the States or opening an account would've been my best choice, but I've
a deadline to meet; and taking any of those choices would cost me time and
a whole lot of other requirements I'm not ready to deal with, as I'd be
traveling a lot in the meantime. So presently, assuming you'd be able to
deal with cash, I'd be willing to employ you on contract basis to be my
payment representative back in the States; this way, I'd issue and make
these Money Orders out to you, you'd then cash them easily, withdraw 10%
of the total amount on these Money Orders as your commission, and then
send the rest back to me through Western Union Money Transfer.

"JOB DESCRIPTION:
1. Receive payment from clients;
2. Cash payments at your Bank;
3. Deduct 10%, which will be your percentage/pay on payment processed;
4. Forward balance afer deduction of percentage & pay to any of the
offices you'll be contacted to send payment to (Payment is to be forwarded
by Western Union Money Transfer).

"HOW MUCH WILL YOU EARN? 10% from each operation! For instance, you
receive 7000USD via a safe Couruer Service; you'll cash the Money, keep
$700 (10% from $7000) for yourself, and send the rest where you will be
insructed to send it. At the beginning your commission will equal 10%,
though later it will increase up to 12%!

"ADVANTAGES: You don't have to go out, as you'll work as an independent
contractor right from your home or office. Your job's absolutely legal.
You can earn up to $3000-4000 monthly, depending on time you'll spend for
this job. You do not need any capital to start. The employees who make
efforts and work hard have a strong possibility to become managers.
Anyway, our
employees never leave us!

"MAIN REQUIREMENTS: 18 years or older. Legally capable. Responsible. Ready
to work 3-4 hours per week with PC knowledge, E-mail, and internet
experience (minimal).  And please know that everything is absolutely
legal; that's why you have to fill a contract! I'd be glad if you accept
my offer, and I intend to commence on the job as soon as you're ready!
"Please note when replying fill the form below:

1) Full Name: .....
2) Contact Address (not p.o.box): .....
3) Contact Phone Number: .....
4)CITY: .....

This kind of spam email really peeves me off:



Dear Friend,

I sincerely hope that after you read this mail you will respond to my call, let me start by introducing myself my name is Williams Goodluck. I am 78 years old, a British living in Bristol BS4 3HU United Kingdom.  I am a businessman and own two companies, married with two children. My wife and two children died in a car accident six years ago but before this happen, my business and concern for making money was all I lived for I never really cared about other values in life but since the loss of my family, I have found a new desire to assist helpless families.

I have been helping orphans in motherless homes; I have donated some money to orphans in Sudan, America and some Asian countries. Before I became ill, I kept some money, Nine Million Dollars ($9million) to be precise in a long-term deposit account in a Security Outfit.
Presently, I'm in a hospital my doctor told me I have prostate cancer that I have a few months to live. It is my last wish to see this money distributed to charity organizations.

Because relatives and friends have plundered so much of my wealth since my illness, hence I cannot live with the agony of entrusting this huge responsibility to any of them since the money in the Security Outfit is the last fund that I have left. Right now i am partially stranded in the hospital due to the nature of my sickness so I am appealing to you to help me collect the deposit from the Security Outfit and distribute it amongst charity organizations.

I would want you to use your discretion to distribute the money and keep 35% of it for yourself. Feel free to reimburse yourself when you have the money for any cost you might have occurred during the process of collecting and distributing the money to charity organizations. May the good Lord bless you and your family.

Please reply to this mail as I can only communicate through my laptop which is by my bed, as soon as I get your response I shall then give you the necessary information you need to claim this fund from the security outfit.
God bless you.

Mr.Williams Goodluck.

Mrs Rose Johnson
 
   
YOU ARE THE LORD CHOSEN ONE
 
I sincerely apologize for not taking your permission before  contacting you while also asking you to pardon my poor English, as I am half  educated. It is rather unfortunate that I am writing this mail to you in deep tears while lying on a hospital bed due to chronic cancer of the lungs waiting for the time to pass unto eternal glory. My ordeal is quite complicated but I will appreciate it if you give a little time to hear me out.
 
First, I would like to start by introducing my self to you. I am Mrs. Rose Johnson from Cotonou, Republic of Benin in West Africa as stated above. I was born on the 7 th of April 1952 in a small village and grew up as a petty trader until I met my husband who was a Cocoa Trader. We got married and lived happily together but had no children. This never bothered us as we were good Christians and never blamed God for that.
 
Three years ago, I lost my husband in a motor accident while going on his trade. His death was the beginning of my unfortunate ordeal.  I had to undergo a lot of ritual procedures based on tradition by his family members to find out if I had a hand in his death. Part of the ritual was being forced to drink water from his dead body. It is a common thing that happens to African Women.
 
This was not all as all properties belonging to him in my possession was taking away from me and was made an outcast. I lived alone for 3 years as a widow with serious agony while praying to the Lord to take charge. Unknown to his family members, my late husband had a total sum of $18, 000,000 USD (Eighteen  Million United States Dollars) which was left secretly in a Bank. His lawyer who presently resides in the  Nigeria Secretly  revealed it to me.
 
Since I have no close family to give it to as I am the only daughter of my parents who died long ago and do not intend to give it to the family of my late husband, I thought it would be good to find someone reliable who could use the money to help the poor and needy hence my contacting you. I will appreciate if you utilize the funds properly as instructed.
 
Kindly get back to me as soon as possible so that I can provide you with contact information of the Lawyer in Nigeria who you will contact for further details to collect the funds. May God bless you as you take up this opportunity to help the poor and the needy.
 
Regards,
 
Mrs.Rose Johnson

Greetings Dear Friend ,

 I apollogise in advance if this mail comes to you as an embarrassment
 because of so many things that happens in our times. However I would
 want you to see me as lonely
voice of an oppressed woman seeking for help.

 My spirit was moved to contact you despite the fact that I have not
 met you before. You might wonder why I cannot carry out my proposal to
 you with my Kith and Kin but
I have faced so many betrayals and I also stand to loose my life if I
 involve them in this. My name is. Rev Mrs Esther Alex, widow to late,
 Bishop. Patrick Henshaw Alex,
and the General overseer of community of Yahweh assembly Porto Novo,
 Republic of Benin, who died in Republic of Togo in a ghastly auto crash.
 As God will have it, we had
three children,a son and two daughters. More to this, I was diagnosed
 of esophageal cancer before he died. Today this ailment has kept me bed
 ridden for the past three years.
The high point of this mail was that my late husband had a very large
 congregation here and as such the church had a lot of funds. No sooner
 that my husband died than
the elders of the church devoured all that was left in the church
 accounts and forcefully ejected me from the official residence of me and my
 husband.

 Before my husband's death he deposited six million, five hundred
 thousand United States dollars in a security deposit company here in
 Republic Of Benin in the name of
my son Mathew Alex. I am the only person with the knowledge of this
 money deposited in the security deposit company.

 This fund was raised from the numerous donations he received and in
 particular a South African gold merchant that regained his sight in our
 church. As it is presently, my
ailment has defiled all forms of medical treatment; I am very worried,
 as the doctors have informed me that it is terminal.Presently I have
 been disposessed of all the funds
in my possession by the church elders and my husband's relatives. They
 achieved this by conniving with very corrupt government officials.This
 fund is the only money left
for me and my family to survive.

 I am lamb in the midst of wolves, hence I am soliciting your
 assistance to have this money in the security deposit company released to you so
 that you can use the money
for investments in your name and my Son as I do not want my husband's
 relatives or people from my country to have knowledge of this deposit
 for security reasons.

 I have arranged with the security deposit company to take this fund
 outside my country but I have not found an honest person to assist me in
 receiving this money and investing
it wisely that is why am contacting you to seek your help to receive
 this money on behalf of my family.

 Please get back to me with your legal names, phone and fax numbers if
 you are willing to be of assistance to me. I assure you that you stand
 no risk in rendering help to me.
It will be of mutual benefit to me and you.

 May God cause his face to shine on you as you respond to my mail for
 more details through my very personal email
 account:revmisestheralex@googlemail.com

 With Best Regards
 Rev Mrs Esther Alex

MY DEAR,
 
I CHOSE YOU TO DO GOD'S WORK, NOT MINE, BUT BE REMINDED THAT GOD WILL BE USING YOU AS A POINT OF CONTACT TO THE LESS PRIVILAGED IN THE WORLD AROUND YOU. AND SO YOU WILL BE ACCOUNTABLE TO GOD SOMEDAY ON HOW YOU USED THE FUNDS THAT WAS PROVIDED TO YOU FOR HIS WORK.
 
I AM MRS. FARIDA JIBRIL; A WIDOW TO LATE MR. MOHAMMED JIBRIL ROM IRAN. I AM CONTACTING YOU FROM MY HOSPITAL BED WITH A LAPTOP FROM ROTTERDAM, NETHERLAND. I AM SUFFERING FROM A LONG TIME CANCER OF THE BREAST WHICH WAS NOT DIAGNOSED IN TIME. IN ALL INDICATIONS, MY CONDITION IS REALLY DETERIORATING BY THE DAY AND IT IS QUITE OBVIOUS THAT I MAY NOT LIVE MORE THAN SIX MONTHS, ACCORDING TO MY DOCTORS. THIS IS BECAUSE THE STAGE OF THE CANCER HAS GOTTEN TO A VERY BAD STAGE OF LITTLE OR NO HOPES FOR ME TO SURVIVE IT. BUT GOD CAN STILL DO HIS MIRACLE ON ME.
 
I AM WRITING YOU TODAY TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE GOOD REPORT I RECEIVED ABOUT YOUR PERSONALITY THROUGH A GOOD CONTACT I MADE FROM DUBAI CHAMBER OF COMMERCE, WHERE A LONG LIST OF FOREIGN ADDRESSES WAS PRESENTED TO ME.AND MY INTUITION TOLD ME TO CONTACT YOU IN THIS REGARD AND THE SPIRIT OF GOD IN ME NEVER LIES. MY LATE BROTHER WHO WAS A VERY WEALTHY CONTRACTOR WAS KILLED DURING THE INVASION OF KUWAIT BY IRAQ. AFTER HIS DEATH, I INHERITED ALL HIS WEALTH SINCE HE HAD NO BIOLOGICAL OR ADOPTED CHILD. SINCE MY DOCTORS ANAYLISED THAT I MAY NOT LIVE FOR MORE THAN SIX MONTHS, I DECIDED TO DEDICATE A PART OF MY WEALTH, TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE CHURCHES AND MOSQUES IN AFRICA, AMERICA, ASIA AND EUROPE ESPECIALLY TO CREATE SOLUTION TO SOME PROBLEMS OF THE LESS PRIVILAGED AND ORPHANAGE HOMES.
 
MY DEAR IN THE LORD, I CHOSE YOU AFTER I PRAYED AND FASTED FOR THREE WEEKS OVER THIS ISSUE WHILE SEEKING THE WILL OF GOD TO BE DONE. I AM WILLING TO DONATE THE SUM OF $5,000,000 MILLION U.S DOLLARS, TO THE LESS PRIVILEGED IN THE SOCIETY. PLEASE BE INFORMED THAT THIS FUND IS IN CUSTODY OF A SECURITY COMPANY. AS SOON AS YOU GET BACK TO ME I WILL RECOMMEND TO YOU AN ATTORNEY WHO WILL FILE IN AN APPLICATION FOR THE NECESSARY DOCUMENTS THAT WILL EMPOWER YOU TO HANDLE THE FUNDS ON MY BEHALF OK. ALL YOU NEED DO IS TO FOLLOW HIS INSTRUCTIONS AND ALWAYS KEEP ME UPDATED.
 
LASTLY, I HONESTLY PRAY YOU TO PLEASE UTILISE THE FUNDS FOR THE PURPOSE IT WAS EARMARKED FOR SO THAT YOU DON'T ATTRACT THE WRATH OF GOD UPON YOURSELF. IN ORDER TO HELP YOU AVOID THE TEMPTATION OF USING THIS FUND FOR YOURSELF, I ALREADY MADE A PROVISION FOR YOU TO HAVE ONLY 10% OUT OF THE FUNDS, WHICH WILL AMOUNT TO $500,000 US DOLLARS (FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND US DOLLARS). AS A GOD FEARING PERSON, THE ABOVE AMOUNT AS IN COMPENSATION WILL BE ENOUGH TO HELP YOU TO ACHIEVE COMFORT WHILE KEEPING GOD'S FUND FOR HIS WORKS. FOR THE BIBLE SAYS, GIVE TO CEASER WHAT BELONGS TO HIM AND TO GOD WHAT IS GOD'S. ALSO, 5% OF THE FUND WILL BE USED TO TAKE CARE OF EXPENSES INCURRED BY ALL PARTIES INVOLVED FOR INSTANCE, PAYING OF THE LAWYER FOR HIS COMMITTED SERVICES AND ALL OTHER EXPENSES. BECAUSE I HAVECOME TO FIND OUT THAT WEALTH ACQUISITION WITHOUT GOD AND GOOD DEEDS IS VANITY, I MADE THE PROMISE TO GOD THAT THE FUND WILL BE USED FOR HIS WORKS.
 
I AWAIT YOUR URGENT RESPONSE. PLEASE, SEND A COPY TO MY CONFIDENTIAL EMAIL BELOW IF YOU ARE SINCERELY WILLING AND CAPABLE, faridajibril@sify.com REMAIN BLESSED AND MAY YOU LIVE LONG.
 
MRS. FARIDA JIBRIL

Immediate Payment of your Pending Transaction (File No.: FGN/MWH/2067/09)

FEDERAL REPUBLIC OF NIGERIA
DEBT MANAGEMENT OFFICE, FCT ABUJA

CONFIDENTIAL DIPLOMATIC IMMUNITY PAYMENT

Dear Beneficiary,

 

This letter is in regard to a meeting held by Debt Management Office here in Abuja Nigeria . I am delighted to inform you that the contract panel which just concluded its Joint Meeting with the Federal Executive Council presided by Nigerian President Umaru Musa Yar'Adua in Abuja released your details among other contractors and beneficiaries of Inheritance funds as a beneficiary of our first quarter Payment of outstanding Bill. This Panel was primarily delegated to investigate manipulated contract claims, unclaimed inheritance fund, over-invoiced payments and their immediate settlements through the Debt Management Office here in Abuja Nigeria .

 

My name is Mr. James Anderson, I am the Chairman of the Payment reconciliatory committee attached to the Debt Management Office here in Abuja Nigeria . While going through the files that were forwarded to my office by the auditors of the panel for the commencement of the payment of these outstanding bills, I personally developed interest in starting with your file. From my findings, I understood that you have possibly made series of efforts towards receiving your fund from one authority to the other but unfortunately every effort proved abortive.

 

We have been mandated to ensure that at least part payments of all funds belonging to beneficiaries approved for this payment are remitted to them with immediate effect. This was as a result of numerous petitions to United Nations against Nigerian Government by contractors and other beneficiaries of unclaimed funds in Nigeria .

 

In this regards, we are going to release your part payment of $5.5Million USD to you via Diplomatic Immunity Payment that will deliver to your fund right in your door step. Before I proceed with the processing of your fund, Kindly get back to me today and re-confirm your details listed below:

 

1) Your full name.

2) Phone, fax and mobile #.

3) Company name, position and address.

4) Age and profession

5) Copy of int'l passport, drivers’ license or any valid ID card via e-mail attachment.

 

Note: Your money will be coming to you in 2 security proof boxes. The boxes are sealed with synthetic Nylon seal and padded with machine. Please you don't have to worry for anything as the transaction is 100% risk free. The boxes are coming with a Diplomatic agent who will accompany the boxes to your house address. IT IS VERY IMPORTANT THAT YOU PROVIDE ACCURATE INFORMATION OF YOURS AS STATED ABOVE. You will be contacted by the Diplomat on his arrival to your country.

 

Your inability to provide accurate and detailed information stated above will lead to the cancellation of your transaction. You will be given comprehensive details on how this will be completed in the shortest time as mandated on receipt of your reply.

 

Yours truly,

 

James Anderson

I have received an email which I THINK is one of those normal scams...but I am not sure! [:I]

Your name address and mobile phone number will give them all they need to operate a scam.

Look at http://419archive.blogspot.com/ (http://419archive.blogspot.com/) Your email is the third one listed on this archive of scams.

Block the senders domain on your email, delete the email and then delete from your 'deleted file'.


BTW, when you get unsolicited email with a link to 'unsubscribe from whoever.com' do not even click on this. It simply confirms that the email address is valid and in use. Always block the senders domain and delete such email without answering.

Dear Friend,
I am Mrs. Elizabeth Etters from Iceland, married to Late Engr Brown Etters {PhD} who worked with MULTINATIONAL OIL COMPANY EXXON AS A DRILLING RIG SUPPLIER in Kuwait for 19 years before he died on the 22nd August 2008. We were married for twenty four years without a child. He died after a brief illness that lasted for only four days. Before his death, he deposited the sum of 2,142,728.00 US Dollars with a bank In Canada and this fund is presently with the bank awaiting my disbursement as beneficiary and next of kin to the funds. Recently, my Doctor told me that I would not last for the next Eight months due to cancer problem. Having known my condition I decided to donate this fund to a church, organization or good person that will utilize this money in good faith.
l took this decision because I don't have any child that will inherit this money. I kept this deposit secret till date, this is why I am taking this decision. I don't think i will need any telephone communication in this regard because of the confidentiality of this transfer. Upon your reply I shall give you the contact of the bank. I will also issue a letter of authorization to the bank that will prove you the present beneficiary of this money. Reply to my very confidential email address below {elizabethetters2@live.com}
Await your responds and God bless you.
Mrs. Elizabeth Etters

I will cover the expenses down here before the consignment will leave for your country.The funds is not in a bank,it's in a finance company.

I am the personal attorney/sole executor to the WILL of a late client who worked as an independent oil Business magnate in my country and who died in a car crash with his immediate family on the 5th of Nov 2004. Since the death of my client in Nov, 2004,I have written several letters to the embassy with an intent to locate any of his extended relatives who are beneficiaries of his abandoned Funds and all such efforts have been to no avail. I want you to stand in for him and assist me to received the fund, You do not have to worry if you are related to him i will present you to the company as he beneficiary of the fund.
 After the completion of this transaction,40% will be for you, 10% for Charity works and the remaining 50% for me. Please if you feel interested, I crave your indulgence to please contact me.As I have said earlier, I want you know that this is the present situation,and do not take this as a scam mail.All I need is your help and support so that we can both carry out this project.
 I have decided to contact you so that we can talk and see how we can both put heads together and achieve a good result.
 On this note, I wish to present you to the finance company, as the surviving relative to the deceased so that we can put in claims for payment with your name as the sole beneficiary of the Will.
 I will appreciate if you can send me the followings;
1.Your Full Names
2.Your tel and fax numbers(for rapid communications)
3.Your age
4.Occupation
5.Your Current address
 
 This will enable me file necessary documents at our High Court Probate Division for the release of the fund in your favour.

 Yours faithfully,
  Brian Casey.

Welcome to the world of Scambaiting!

Does somebody want to transfer millions of dollars into your account?
Does someone want you pay you to cash cheques and send them the money?
Met a new friend/penpal on a friendship/dating site who's asking you for money?
Has a dying person contacted you wanting your help to give his money to charity?
Have you sold an item and are asked to accept a payment larger than the item amount?

IT'S A SCAM!

Don't fall for common scams like this - fight them!

So what is scambaiting? Well, put simply, you enter into a dialogue with scammers, simply to waste their time and resources. Whilst you are doing this, you will be helping to keep the scammers away from real potential victims and screwing around with the minds of deserving thieves.

It doesn't matter if you are new to this sport or a hardened veteran; if you are wasting the time of a scammer, or frustrating them in any way well that's good enough for us, and we would welcome you to join with our now very large community.

I thought you guys would appreciate this little bit of history.  I have read about The Spanish prisoner fraud in “My Experiences at Scotland Yard” by Basil Thomson (1923).  From Thomson’s first sentence, it sounds like it’s been around since the end of the Franco-Prussian War (circa 1871).  Thomson writes:

The Spanish prisoner fraud has flourished for nearly half a century.  It has the advantage over all other frauds in costing practically nothing for stock-in-trade, and incurring no risk whatsoever to the practitioner.  All he needs is a little stationery, a few postage stamps, and the names and addresses of farmers in Scotland and England.  The farmer receives a letter with the Valencia postmark from a Spanish colonel now languishing in prison on account of the part he played in a revolutionary conspiracy. 


The world may be divided into two classes — those who would reply to such letters and those who would consign them to the fire.  In spite of the picture drawn of Englishman by envious foreigners, the Britisher is by nature an imaginative and romantic person.  That is why you find him in every part of the globe: he goes abroad for adventure, to escape from the humdrum routine of his home surroundings.  And the farther you go north the more romantic he becomes.  That is why there are so few Scots left in Scotland.  To judge from the correspondence filed by the police, nine out of every ten reply, …


The [Great] War was unkind to the Spanish colonel, who had been lingering upon his death-bed for over forty years, and I hoped that it had killed him, but the ink was scarcely dry on the Treaty of Versailles before he broke out again.


Very intresting and cognitive information! Thanks for efforts!

'Phishing', 'chains' and other emails out to relieve you of your hard earned cash are bad enough, but this one is just pure evil. To prey on those who are ill, possibly terminally, is absolutely contemptable.


Dear Friend,

It is my desire to share this news with you.

I was diagnosed of cancer of the lungs last year 6/10/2007 and I felt my life has ended. A friend told me about this Priest of Shiva (Abhijat Balaji Ambar) and I never believed at first. After thinking about it and knowing fully well that I was going to die after all I decided to give it a try.

I have gone back to my job fully healed. The doctors performed series of tests on me and wondered what happened to the cancer that was killing me previously.

If you have any problems, please don’t seat there and do nothing, you can write the priest and he will help you.

He can be contacted via email: (abhijatbalajiam@yahoo.in)

This is my promise and the prize I am paying for my healing. Not money, no gift, nothing in return to this healing.

Good luck.

Ronald Bayhan

And, I on behalf of my widowed mother Mrs. Bridget Williams  decided to solicit for your assistance to transfer the sum of US$35.8 Million (Thity Five Million Eight Hundred Thousand United States Dollars), which he deposited in a safe box to private security company in Johannesburg, South Africa. In fact, my father said, and I quote: My son, I wish to draw your attention to US$35.8 Million (Thity Five Million Eight Hundred Thousand United States Dollars).

I deposited the box containing the fund in a security company in Johannesburg, South Africa as valuables. During the war, I was very committed and dedicated in winning the war against the rebels, until I found out that the senior army officers and government functionaries were busy helping themselves with government funds and properties, sending them to foreign countries. Due to this, when the former adviser to the president and I were assigned by the president (JOSE EDUARDO SANTOS) to purchase arms in South Africa, we saw this as a golden opportunity and diverted the money and share it, of which I got a total sum of US$35.8 Million (Thity Five Million Eight Hundred Thousand United States Dollars).

In case of my absence on earth as a result of death, only you should solicit for assistance of a reliable and sincere foreign partner to assist you to transfer this money out of South Africa for investment purpose. I deposited the box in your name and you can claim it alone with deposited code. Your mother is with all the documents. Take good care of your mother and your sisters.

From these words of my late father, you can understand that life and future of my family depend on this fund, as such I will be grateful if you can assist us. We are now living in South Africa as political asylum seekers. Financial laws and regulations of the Republic of South Africa do not permit us certain financial rights. In view of this, I cannot invest this fund in South Africa hence; I am seeking your assistance to transfer this fund out of South Africa for investment purpose. For your assistance, we are prepared to offer you 25% of the total fund while 5% will be set aside for any expenses incurred during this transaction.

Please note that this transaction is 100% risk-free and the major thing I demand from you is to assure me the safety of this money when it finally gets to you. Further information and arrangement commence as soon as trust confidence and good relationship are established. I shall be most grateful if you maintain the confidentiality of this matter.
Please, confirm your interest through the above contact telephone numbers or email.
 
Best regards,
 
Mohammed Williams.
{For the family}

George says the amount is £82.57p. All that is required is your bank account details and your sort code and the monies can be wired directly:

Confidential Business Proposal

show details 12:34 PM (4 hours ago)
   
Dear Prospective Partner,

My name is Avans Kilmberry, I trained and work as an external auditor for
Bahrain Development Bank (BDB) in the Kingdom Of Bahrain, working as part
of a bigger team that covers the entire Middle East region. I had taken
pains to find your contact through a random web search using the deceased
name.

On routine audit check last year, I discovered some investment accounts
that had been dormant for at least twelve years. All the accounts belong
to a single/one account holder with monies totaling a little above Twenty
Seven Million, One hundred and fifty thousand United States Dollars
($27,150,000 USD). Now banking regulation/legislation in Bahrain demand
that I do notify the fiscal authorities after a statutory time span of
twelve years when dormant accounts of this type are called in by the
Kingdom Of Bahrain Monetary Regulatory bodies.

The above set of facts underscores my reason of writing and proposing to
you. My investigations of the said account reveals that the investor, an
American had died in 1997 which was the exact time the account was last
operated. I can confirm with certainty that the said investor died
intestate and no next -of -kin to his estate has been found or has come
forward during the past years.

I am of a settled conviction that using my insider leverage, I, working
with you can secure the funds in the account for us instead of allowing it
to pass as unclaimed funds into the coffers of the Government of Bahrain
(who might likely use it to sponsor their religion Mishap/terrorism). This
is especially possible as you bear part of the NAME of the said investor.
This exactly is why I crave your participation and co-operation. I am
seized with all relevant documents (legal and Banking) that will
facilitate our putting you forward as the claimant/beneficiary of the
funds and ultimately transfer the money to an account to be nominated by
you. Of course you shall be handsomely rewarded for your part in this
transaction as the people I am working with are prepared to allocate a 45%
slice of the total funds for your efforts.

I shall however leave out the final details of this transaction till I
receive an affirmation of your desire to participate. Rest assured that I
am on top of the situation all the time and there will be no risk
whatsoever if you elect to come on board. Needless to say, UTMOST
CONFIDENTIALITY is of vital importance if we are to successfully reap the
immense benefits of this transaction.

I do expect your prompt response.

Truly,
Avans Kilmberry

Here's a spoof ebay mail. I have removed the hyperlink. The big giveaway on this was the return email address which rather than the @ebay.co.uk address was @e.bay.co.uk.

Unusually though, only one spelling mistake (Highlighted). They are learning!

But on first glance this looks authentic...... BUT ITS A SPOOF attempting to access ebay details.

Or the email address is somebody_@_ebay.com.132468.ghjr45yg8.bjfhnrb.6jgntnbt.burfnvb.ntii.u6jb.jv.somescamsite.ru (underscores so your browser will not take this as a real email address) and the site shown to the reader looks like it is ebay, but not realising that domain names are read from the trailing end, the actual scammer is on somescamsite, the rest being a means used to fool the casual reader, who mostly believes the junk at the end of a site link is not human readable. Not helped by most mail readers by default giving a "pretty" HTML view of every email, and you can use this to hide actual site addresses, as well as use the numerous " Undocumented Features" in common mail viewers to create havoc in various ways.

I post on some travel forums and recently got two emails on two of them, possibly from the same person using two different aliases, from a woman who fancied me and wanted to send me her photo, etc.

This scam involves sending you a photo of an attractive woman (it may be a man doing it) and then you get a number of lovey-dovey emails with the person at the other end trying to chat you up.

Then when you are ripe, you start getting emails asking for money. It may be to pay bills for a family member who is sick, the "girl" may want to visit you and want money for fare, passports, etc.

When they have scammed as much money out of you as they can, maybe even asking for your bank details so supposedly they can pay back (but they really want access to your account), the person vanishes or you are told they died, etc.

I have had a number of emails in the last several years saying they are holding huge amounts of money for me which they will release on payment of a small sum, maybe hundreds of dollars, pounds or whatever.

I tell them to take the sum out of the money they are holding and send me the rest. I have yet to receive anything.

By amazing chance, I am the 999,999th visitor to quite a number of internet sites. Who'd believe that? Not me.

Obviously the New York DMV does not have my E-Mail address, nor was I within 3000 miles of New York this year.  Oh, wait, that was 2010.  I wasn't there in 2010 either.  And, not New York, but rather  "NEW YOURK"

baltimore.com, I was thinking of Maryland, but it is actually registered to someone in the UK.
And crystone.net is somewhere in Sweden.

There is an Alfred, NY, but the zip code is incorrect, and the address is bogus.

Anyway, I have no idea what they're peddling, but I could imagine a lucrative business of bogus traffic tickets, except that I would never want to attach my name or address to fraud.

A quick question about forum etiquette. 

If a single spammer spams TNS 4 times. 
Do you want us to report it once for the spammer, or once for each message?  (the delay is annoying).
I presume it is easy enough for you to search for all messages written by the individual.
Or, just patiently wait for the message to vanish?

Someone was actually sincere.  How difficult would it be to give away an anonymous large donation to people randomly selected via e-mail. 
And, all those people that would be kicking themselves for passing up the opportunity after the "winners" appear on BBC.

For some time now, users of BT Yahoo mail may have been receiving emails purporting to be from BT or Yahoo telling them that BT Yahoo mail is changing. In fact the change has already happened, yet these emails continue to be sent.

The latest may get some people worried that they might loose access to their mail and take hasty action. This mail is headed
 "****FINAL NOTICE****"

IT IS A PHISHING SCAM designed to catch you on the hop. Clicking on the link will take you to a convincing BT Yahoo look-alike login page. Entering your pass codes on this page sends internet criminals all they need to know to access your account.

Quote from: BT
How do I know if an email from BT is genuine?

For starters, BT never sends emails with attachments. If you receive an email which seems to be from us, but which has an attachment, you should delete it immediately without opening it.

You may see emails claiming to be from BT advising you that some of our email services are closing. If you receive an email like this and it's showing an unknown address or 'undisclosed recipients' in the 'To' or 'From' fields, you should delete it straight away. 

We also never ask you to "verify your account details" via email. You should never send your account details in an email either, unless you're using one of our secure email forms at https://www.bt.com/contact.

If an email contains a link which seems to go to a BT page, it's worth checking if the link will really take you there or somewhere else.

To do this, hover your mouse over the link (without clicking). The web address (URL) will show up in the bar at the bottom of your browser.

If BT has genuinely sent you an email about your account, the link is likely to be to an address which starts with one of the following:
•http://bt.com/
•http://www.bt.com/
•http://www2.bt.com/
•http://www.btsport.com/
•http://bt.custhelp.com/
•http://www.productsandservices.bt.com/
•http://email.planning-inc.co.uk/
•http://intc.tractionplatform.com/

If you're concerned at all, just don't click on any links in an email or reply to it, especially if it's about confirming or updating your personal or billing details. You can always safely sign in to see details of your account at www.bt.com/mybt. And if you need to get in touch, then you can safely contact us via www.bt.com/contact.

How do I report a phishing email? (http://bt.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/12765)



An important note about passwords

One of the things that hackers rely on is that many people use the same username and password for multiple sites. So if they get hold of your account details for, say, a shopping site mailing list, then they'll use those details to try and get into your bank accounts.

Try not to use the same username and password for different websites.

Now, that one was weird... 

Not an E-Mail, but I just got a call from somebody. 

Noisy Call Center.
Oriental Accent.
Phone Number Blocked on Caller ID

She claimed to be in Washington DC, and said that I was being given $9000.  The details were a bit sketchy with the background noise, but she said it was some kind of a rebate from the government for not having declared bankruptcy, or some such thing. 

All I had to do was provide my bank account number, or a credit card number, and they would transfer the money into my bank account.

I told the woman that I would prefer a check in the mail, and she stated that the only way to get the money was through an electronic funds transfer.  I told her that I didn't have a bank account number that I could give her, and she just hung up on me. 

Obviously they are fishing for bank account details from unwary, greedy individuals, and no doubt more money would be removed from the accounts than transferred into them.
