Martha Miller 19 Oct 2009

I'm not sure what you are talking about Terry, but I have noticed new people on my instant messenger that I have never added, How can someone add themselves without my validation .But they are doing it. When i see a new name i don't bother to ask who they are anymore i just delete them. All the effort they put into trying to scam people........I think it be easier to go get a job? even if it's flipping burgers at Mickydees LOL

Terry Bassett 19 Oct 2009

Dear Bassett , With due respect I crave your indulgence as I am contacting you in such a surprising manner,but I respectfully advise that you read this letter carefully and get back to me immediately.As it may interest you to know, I got your contact through the Internet web directory while searching for my late client's relatives. In a brief introduction,I am Barrister Francis Zimba,an Attorney at law, and the Personal lawyer to Engr.P A.Bassett ,a foreigner who used to work with Shell International Republic of Togo. Hereinafter shall be referred to as my client. On the 21st of April 2001,my client, his wife and their only daughter were involved in a car accident along Kara-Sokode expressway while coming back from a cultural festival holding in the nearby village. All occupants of the vehicle unfortunately lost their lives. Since then I have made several enquiries to their embassy to locate any of their extended relatives and this has also proved abortive as there is no heir to the fund. I am contacting you to assist in repatriating the fund valued at US$9.6M,(Nine million six hundred thousand United States Dollars),left behind by my late client before it gets confiscated or declared unserviceable by the Bank where this huge amount were deposited. The said Bank has issued me a notice to provide the next of kin or have his account confiscated within the next twenty one working days. Since I have been unsuccessful in locating the relatives for the past 8 years, I seek your consent to present you to the Bank as the next of kin to my late client so that the fund can be released to you, since both of you are bearing the same family last name. I know that you might not be directly related to my late client, but for the fact that both of you are having same last name, you have nothing to worry about. I will back you up legally and I guarantee that this transaction will be executed under legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any breach of the law both here and in your country. Therefore, I will not fail to inform you that this transaction is 100% risk free. On the successful conclusion of this transaction, you will be entitled to 50% of the total sum as gratification, while the remaining 50% will be for me. All I require from you is your honest co-operation to enable us see this transaction through. Upon your acceptance to this proposal, I expect your urgent response indicating your full interest in this transaction to our both mutual trust. My direct telephone number is: +228-8196418. For security reasons reply to my private email:([email protected]) Awaiting your urgent response. Francis Zimba, Esq. Email:[email protected] Tel: +228-8196418

Minnie Shuler 11 Nov 2009

It's the email about things you've won on eBay(that you've never heard of) or we are closing your PayPal account....plus the African scams and I need your help to just accept money for our business. I send them to [email protected] and [email protected] Is there an abuse or spoof address to send the foreign scammers? There's a new one on facebook. You get a message from a friend with something off the wall with a link. When you follow the link, it asks for your signin name and password and asks again for your password...don't click on it. It puts a Trojan Horse on your computer. This particular facebook friend warned us that her name and password had been stolen and someone was putting bogus messages up. Some of thes scams are so rediculous that they are funny. Thanks for the light side, Martha.

Martha Miller 11 Nov 2009

Your welcome Minnie. You have to look at these sorry people and their many ploys and just laugh. They will never give up.....just look for new and better ways.......they think. Their long winded intros with broken language from people that are suppose to be extremely educated Is a very large Red flag.
