Mr. Henry White Wants to Show Us His Gratitude

Dear Friend,

 Due to your effort, sincerity, courage and trust worthiness you showed at the 
course of the Uk Online Lotto Winning cheque shipment to your location,

 I want to compensate you and show my gratitude to you with the sum of 
$950,000USD (Nine Hundred And Fifty Thousand United States Dollars).

 I have authorized the finance house where I deposited the money to issue you 
international certified bank draft cashable at your bank.

 My dear Friend,I will like you to contact the CEO in charge of the finance 
house for the collection of this international certified bank draft.

 The name of the Person with your Cheque is MR DAVID WILLIAMS
 COMPENSATION AND FINANCE HOUSE HEAD OFFICE
 CONTACT AGENT : MR DAVID WILLIAMS
 Email:david.williams.09003@hotmail.com

 Finance and Security House United Kingdom Deposit Firm FSH Towers Chelsea T45H 
U.K. At the moment, I am very busy at Sydney,Australia because of the investment
 projects which myself and my new partner Mr Peter Hills of CTL Company are
 having at hand.

 Finally, remember that I have forwarded instruction to Mr David Williams at the 
finance house on your behalf to send the bank draft to you as soon as you 
contact him without delay. Please I will like you to accept this token with good 
faith as this is from the bottom of my heart.

 Thanks and God bless you and your family.

 My sincere advice to you as a christian is that you should endeavour to pay 
your tithe to a bible believing church when you get the money because i noticed 
it as a fudiciary agent that you were skeptical about your winnings when you 
were been ask by the Uk lotto Agency Inc to file out a claim for your prize.

 And now the current policy of the Lotto organiser is that if an emerged winner 
fails to claim up his/her winning cheque of $950,000USDOLARS it's now mandatory 
that this fund can be remitted or forfeited to the fudiciary agent in charge of 
this winners file.

 However, I want you to contact him immediately as soon as you receive this 
information because he is leaving for the US by the end of this month and this 
might cost a delayment for you to receive this draft. Hope to hear from you 
soon.

 Yours Faithfully

First, just pay this Small Fee . . .

LOL, wouldn’t you think he would address this to me by name, instead of beneficiary? And I am willing to bet that his charge of $85.99 is just the beginning . . .

Dear Beneficiary,

I wish to inform you again that we are not playing over this. I know my reason
for the continuous sending of this notification to you. The fact is that you
can’t seem to trust anyone again over this payment for what you have been in
cantered in the past, but I want you to trust me because I cannot scam you for
$85.99 it is for bank processing of your payment. The fee of $85.99 is for your
service, I did not invent it to defraud you. It is an official bank payment
processing fee and the good part of this is that you will never be disturbed
again over any kind of payment. This is the final as there is no unforeseen fees
and the forms will become effective once we submit your payment application
processing fee and pay the form fee of $85.99 only. I don’t want you to lose
this fund this time because you may never get another such good opportunity
again. The federal government is keen and very determined to pay your overdue
debts, this is not a fluke. I would not want you to lose this fund out of ignorance. I wil

Scam from Marina Parma

Urgent Reply.

Greetings to you and your family, I am the manager of bill and exchange in THE
BANK, I have a business of 5.5 Million
United State Dollars to be transfer to your account for investment in your
country, if you are ready to assist me get
back to me, I will give you full details on how the fund will be transfer to
you.

Be rest assured that everything will be handled confidentially because, this is
a great opportunity we cannot afford to
miss, as it will make our family profit a lot.

It has been 6 years go, that most of the greedy African Politicians used our
bank to launder money overseas through the
help of their Political advisers.
Most of the funds which they transferred out of the shores of Africa were gold
and oil money that was supposed to have
been used to develop the continent.

The Political advisers always inflated the amounts before transfer to foreign
accounts so I also used the opportunity to
divert part of the fund worth five million five hundred united state dollars I
told you about and I am aware that there
is no official trace of how much was transferred as all the accounts used for
such transfers of fund at that particle
time were closed after transfer.

I am the account officer to most of the politicians and when I discovered that
they were using me to succeed in their
greedy act, I also cleaned some of their banking records from the Bank files and
no one cared to ask me for the money
was too much for them to control, as I am sending this message to you, I was
able to divert five point five Millions
Dollars ($5.5M) which is in an escrow transit account belonging to no one in the
bank, and now my bank is very anxious
to know the real beneficiary of the funds is for they have made a lot of profits
with the fund.

It has been more than five years ago and most of the politicians are no longer
in power again and they don’t use our
bank to transfer funds overseas anymore since their tenure had expired.

The $5.5 Million United State Dollars has been lying in the bank as unclaimed
fund and i will soon retire from the bank
immediately the fund is transfer into your account over there.

Immediately the fund has been successfully transfer into your account i will
come to your country for the sharing of the
fund, the fund will be shared 50% for me and 40% for you, and the other 10% for
the orphanages home and poor with
less-privilege people.
Please know that there is no one that is going to question you about the fund if
you will comply with me and follow my
instruction which will help us a lot to achieve this goal for everything is well
secured.

Please indicate your interest in this transaction my replying back and if you
are not interested do not waste your time
to reply kindly delete my message from your box ok.

Waiting to hear from you soon.

Yours Faithfully,
Mrs Marina Parma

NBK Scam Kuwait

I received this three times this morning, in my Intlxpatr mail account. Trust me, Intlxpatr never had an NBK account, not as Intlxpatr. If you get this message, delete. It is a scam:

LOL@SCAMMER!

This was in my mailbox this morning, from a name I recognize. Fortunately, I have heard of this scam before – often the name used is that of a family member. The scammer captures someone’s e-mail and use it to contact all contacts with this message. Of course, the real individual has not been mugged, has all his cash and is doing fine, while we wire money to the scammer. NOT!

I hope you don’t take offense in my sudden approach for help. I took a
trip this week to Limassol, Cyprus and was attacked and robbed. My
belongings including my cash, credit card and cell phones were all
stolen. I’ve made contact with my bank but the best they can do is to
mail me a new card which will take 7 working days to arrive here, am
currently concluding my documentation at the embassy so i can fly out.
I need you to lend me some funds to settle some bills.

Please let me know if you can assist me in anyway so i can forward you
details to effect a transfer. Waiting for your mail.

Thanks,

Clive
