I've received a Nigerian spam from 'a Private Investigator based in
Europe'. An attachment contained a list of addresses which look like
the list of contributors to this list.
Dear Sir/Madam,
I am a Private Investigator based in Europe. A group of Government
Officials from an African Country contacted me with a Proposal. I am to Make contact with you and state their
offer, if your Interest is Genuine, you will be contacted for your Account details to which will be transferred
the sum of $33,600,000.00 USD. (20% of which is yours). You are then required to forward the remaining balance
(Minus the Interest, handling and tax clearance charges, which Will be offset by Us & Deducted from the
transferred sum) to a nominated Bank account in the Cayman Islands. I don't think I need to spell out
the importance of Secrecy in this Matter considering the amount
involved.
Let me state clearly here that the account that you would be providing
does not need to have funds in it; it is only needed to be active and be able to receive funds.
So, if I don't hear from you within three days I will assume you are
not interested and will solicit for a new partner, but if you know you are interested let me know. List your
phone & fax Numbers so we may
communicate with you. This is important as we would Have to talk about the modalities of the transaction.
Waiting to hear from you,
ishola doran
