APPEAL FOR URGENT BUSINESS ASSISTANCE.
Dearest,

My mother died when I was a baby and since then my father took me so special. Before the death of my father on January 2006 in a private hospital here in Abidjan he secretly called me on his bed side and told me that he has the sum of Twelve million,five hundred thousand United State Dollars. USD (12.500,000) left in fixed / suspense account in one o the prime bank here in Abidjan ,that he used my name as his only son for the next of Kin in depositing of the fund.

Every few months this same type of scam hits some members here at this site. I recieved nearly the same message about a year ago. I just can't believe people fall for that stuff.
Like Cheri said, "IF something sounds too good to be true, it generally is."

While we’re on the topic of fraud, here’s another. I’m always skeptical, because much of the time the scam is really just the e-mail. So I’ve learned to be cautious enough to research the facts before sending out things like this, and the FBI & Snopes verify the scam. Links provided.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Jury Duty Scam
This has been verified by the FBI.
http://www.fbi.gov/page2/june06/jury_scams060206.htm
The caller claims to be a jury coordinator. If you protest that you never received a summons for jury duty, the scammer asks you for your Social Security number and date of birth so he or she can verify the information and cancel the arrest warrant. Give out any of this information, and bingo; your identity was just stolen.
The fraud has been reported so far in 11 states including Minnesota, Oklahoma, Illinois, and Colorado. This swindle is particularly insidious because they use intimidation over the phone to try to bully people into giving information by pretending they are with the court system. The FBI and the federal court system have issued nationwide alerts on their web sites, warning consumers about the fraud.

I got it too. This isn’t so much a scam as a laugh. Do these morons really think that people who can actually read and write are fooled by functional illiterates? It’s irritating just the same that they waste your time and try.

P.S. I had an email saying I had that PM too, but when I signed on here this morning, it was already gone. That got taken care of rickety-tick! Thanks, Admin. |
