So I'm checking my hotmail and I get an email from someone I've never heard of in my life.

Here it is in it's entirety: (normally I would never re-post a private email, however 1) this person is not- nor ever will be a friend of mine 2) it just too outrageous 3) I couldn't care less :P )


Dear Friend,

Please this is important and very urgent i have an urgent transaction of $20.6 million usd to transfer to your nominated account, I am mohar kane, i am an Auditor, with Accounting Department,Bank of Africa here in Ouagadougou Burkinafaso

Aftergoing through some old files in the records, I discovered that if I do not remit this money out urgently it will be forfeited for nothing. The owner of this account unfortunately died in the plane crash of Union Transport Africains Flight Boeing 727 in Cotonou, Benin republic on the december 25,2003. You will read more stories about the crash on visiting this website

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


No other person knows about this account or any thing concerning it,the account has no other beneficiary and my investigation proved to me as well that his company does not know anything about this account and the amount involved is (USD 20.6 MILLION) Twenty million Six Hunderd Thousend United States Dollars.

I want to transfer the USD 20.6 MILLION) Twenty million Six Hunderd Thousend United States Dollars into a safe foreigners account abroad , but I don't know any foreigner, I am only contacting you as a foreigner because this money can not be approved to a local bank here, but can only be approved to any foreign account because the money is in US dollars and the former owner of the account is a foreigner too.

I know that this message will come to you as a surprise as we don't know our selves before,but be rest assure that this is life time business for both of us even for our generation to come .
.

With believe in God that you will never let me down in this business. You are the only person that I have contacted in this business, so please reply urgently so that I will inform you the next step to take urgently, Send also your private telephone and fax number .

I want us to meet face to face or sign a binding agreement to bind us together so that you can receive this money into a foreign account or any account of your choice where the fund will be safe. I will fly to your country for withdrawal and sharing and other investments.

I am contacting you because of the need to involve a foreigner with foreign account and foreign beneficiary.

I need your full co-operation to make this work fine because the management is ready to approve this payment to any foreigner who has correct information about this account, which I will feed you with, if you are able and with capability to handle such amount in strict confidence and trust according to my instructions and advice for our mutual benefit because this opportunity will never come again in my life.

I need truthful person in this business because I don't want to make mistake I need your strong assurance and trust. With my position now in the office I can transfer this money to any foreign reliable account, which you can provide with assurance that this money will be intact pending my physical arrival in your country for sharing.

And i want to remaind you that your share has been carculated at 35% of the total sum. I'am waiting for your urgent reply so that i will give you more information about this deal. Please reply back to my private email addRESS:mohar_kane01@yahoo.fr

With regards,

mr mohar kane



If anyone here would like the money- you're welcome to it. :lol:

Obviously this is a phishing scam to get me to give this guy my bank account info.

Not going to happen. Sorry Mohar. :roll:

The sad thing is ID theft is on the rise and to date there have been little to no convictions with regards to it.

If ever in doubt open a free checking account and just put as little money in there as you need. Not saying reply to this guy and give him your details because this doozie is mine :)

Sarge, if you've never had an email like this before, consider yourself very lucky! I've had loads.

The funniest one I ever got was from someone who said they were the teenage daughter of the (deposed former ruler) of (some African state) and begging for help because she and her entire family had been thrown into a concentration camp.

:|

Apparently a concentration camp with internet access.

:lol:

I get spam emails in my home account all the time- as many as 20 a day!

But this was my hotmail account, which is only displayed on my ezboard profile, and my website.

Guess I'm finally on the map so to speak. :roll:

These take advantage of the fact that a check deposited will show up in your account and look like the money is there even though it may take a couple of days for it to actually get routed. Then you wire transfer a portion of it which happens instantly leaving you on the hook for the money.
