ALASKA. IT IS THEREFORE UPON THIS DISCOVERY THAT I NOW
DECIDED TO MAKE THIS BUSINESS PROPOSAL TO YOU AND FOR
OUR BANK TO RELEASE THE MONEY TO YOU. YOU HAVE TO
FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTION WHICH I WILL BE SEND TO YOU AS
THE NEXT OF KIN OR RELATION TO THE DECEASED FOR SAFETY
AND SUBSEQUENT DISBURSEMENT SINCE NOBODY IS COMING FOR
IT AND I DON'T WANT THIS MONEY TO GO INTO OUR BANK

TREASURY AS UNCLAIMED BILL.




YOURS FAITHFULLY,

I have been promised $3 million from an estranged aunt's estate if I marry in the next three months. If your million comes through, I'd be willing to marry you and then go halvies in the $4 mill, ok?

I've linked this before, but if you want to see what you can potentially do to these Nigerian scammers, go to www.419eater.com

One of my favourite web sites.

If you only just received one of these emails, count yourself lucky. My parents were first contacted via fax, in 1993, with the same proposition.

Yep that's really believable.

Save the postage and buy a $2 lottery ticket, the odds are way better.

Please, to avoid mistake in this transaction, dont tell anyone about the business and dont let the bank know that i contacted you to claim the fund.

The business must be between me and you alone untill the fund is transfer into your account because if you tell friends or relation about the business, they can be jealouse of the success coming your way and at the end will tell the bank that i contacted you to claim the fund and if the bank know that i contacted you the bank will stop the transaction and i am will get into big problem here, so please let the business be between me and you alone untill the fund is transfer into your account.

Once the fund is transfer into your account i will come down to your country as stated elier and with your assistance i will invest there with my own share of the fund.

You know that this is huge amount i am transferring into your account and i dont need someone that will sheet me or seat on the fund after the transfer, so to avoid such i need your picture and your information requested so that i will know that i am dealing with a sincere person.

In receipt of your information and picture photograph i will send to you the application form that you will use to apply to the bank as the next of kin to deceased customer.

Please i am waiting to hear from you immediately so that we can proceed further.

Came with an attachment "bank details" , which I will not be opening .... I'm betting the attached file has a nasty hidden data mining program in it .... good thing there are no tax , financial or criucial personal details anywhere on my computer (too easy for these to be got at "invisibly".

As if I'm stupid enough to buy this.

This is where I pass the emails on to the Australian Federal Police (yes I know they are toothless tigers).

I get those in the junk mail now and again Ian - noticed a few more recently. The scammers must be doing a 'surge' at the moment.
Those crazy Nigerians tried to get me via ebay recently (well 2 years ago!!)...
http://www.iceinspace.com.au/forum/s...rian+scam+ebay
Doug

ps...just had a horrible thought!!!!! The scam I linked to above happened on ebay where the scammer posed as a buyer in a "buy it now" sale.The scammer bid on the 'auction' thereby ending the sale. The horrible thought is that via the ebay system they had access to my name and location (not too difficult to search for an address) and bank account details to deposit the money that was never to come !!!!
That's an identity fraudster's dream come true, and it's so open to potential abuse!?

Thankfully nothing dreadful has happened so far...but now I've put it out there into the Universe!!!

JUst a quick note to you all regarding this sort of thing and internet scamming in general; don't ever ever reply to any of them, even if it's just to tell them to take you off their list.
you see, the thing is that if they get a response, then they know the address is checked by someone (rather than a 'dead' or bot-account), which makes it about 50 times more valuable to them if they're gathering email addresses to sell on to other companys (cyber telemarketers, and such) at least this is what we were always taught, and it makes perfect sense.
Hmm, Dugnsuz, you make a really good point regarding these guys getting your details off E-bay...
hey, quick question, if it's not getting 'too' off topic; I've known several people that have been really blasé regarding the whole identity theft thing, since they've claimed that as they only have $50 in their accounts, that that will be 'all' the crims can get. if they can get your bank details, is it likely they can get more important things?

That was my worry too Lorraine. I would have thought that with the information gleaned from ebay they might be able to use it to acquire other items in my or others' names thereby obtaining a more complete false identity picture. From there the scammer could go on to apply for large loans etc. Not 100% sure if that would be possible, but the thought gave me a quick shudder!!!
