This is nil new and is a 100% scam! Don't provide any of your personal details such as bank account becos they would rig your signatures on documents to have your sandbank transfers money out from your account to theirs. If I be you, report them to the authority to enable them to trace the sender and place them beneath frauds.

Yes, it sounds resembling a scam. I had gotten one similar to yours. I reported mine and turned it within as spam. I would not respond to that e-mail if I were you!

nope they are spam

Report the email to your mail provider and strip them as spam. Do not give them information, identity thieving is REAL.

It's possible that it's an identity thieving scam, but generally the family that do this sort of thing aren't that sophisticated. Some are but not tons.

Usually it's a variation of an advanced excise fraud. See the links below for more info and whatever you do, don't reply beside your real information. If you must reply make a contribution them phony info and string them along for as long as possible. You'll be using up their valuable time and resources (e.g. internet, phone, etc.) of which they usually hold to pay extravagant prices for due to their location which is usually Nigeria.

If you're interested surrounded by having fun near them in this route I suggest you check out the Scam-O-Rama or 419eater sites below to see how others are fighting fund.

SCAM.

Ask yourself why anyone would want to give some money to anyone they don't know.

It might be identity pocketing, or getting the chance to access your dune to clean it out

Or a oscillation on what has become prearranged as the Nigerian Fraud, along with several other name. They say the tansfer can't jump ahead until you pay a duty, which they pocket and disappear.

I'll bet that the information they are asking for relates to your ridge account, ridge branch and the like.

Don't afford them a damn thing. This is a scam. If you don't pass them the info they don't want to be bothered with you - because they won't be capable of get anything out of your edge account.

Forget it!

it's a scam. don't fall for it. there's even a heading for it : "nigerian bank scam."

This is a scam. It's a tremendously common one, and you should not perceive bad in the order of being tricked. Do not reply to it, and be paid sure you report it to your email provider (most providers have a intermingle to report and delete messages like this). Never reveal financial information contained by this way. The root they are telling you nearby is no point in communicating further until they receive the information is to discourage you from checking them out for legitimacy. I am so glad you asked going on for this before responding to them, because they would own either stolen you money or your identity. The best method to avoid this sort of scam is this: if the offer seem too good to be true, after it is. Anytime you get messages from strangers offering you deal if you reveal information, delete them and report them. Good luck!

The information their want is your, Once you impart your information then of coure you are S-C-A-M. There is no such a infer. I know someone is still paying the money he cashed with the false checks. The checks are so fitting that the banks cant sometimes recount so the bank holds in a minute that kind od the money for 3 weeks or till the money is cleared on the other side. Please do not slop in this.I dont mind describing you who this friend is but due to the rules I cant give you his information but you can e-mail me.

Answers: Its a total scam. Do not fall for it. It is going to everybody's email. treat it as spam.

This is an attempt to get you ridge account information.so they can verbs out any money you have. If you want to keep hold of your money do not give out any information to someone that you do not know or to anyone who does not enjoy a legitimate stipulation for it.

I don't know if I am spelling this right but i believe it is called phlishing. Much of this comes from foreign countries and once the other soul has your money at hand is no getting it back,

Don't do it! This is one of the tons scams circulating on the internet. I grasp these emails all the time, sometimes its a relative that have died and sometimes it is a lottery winning. They are adjectives scams, don't topple prey to them. My husband works these cases all the time!

Is this from:

��I AM MRS NANCY SANTOS,THE WIFE OF LATE MR EL ZARAH SANTOS.I AM A WIDOW ANDHAVE NO CHILD ALSO ON A SICK BED FACING CANCER OF THE BREAST WHICH HASLASTED FOR 9 MONTHS NOW. ��
DON��T RESPOND TO THIS EMAIL. It��s a variability on the Nigerian 914 scam. The bait is a large amount of money for doing almost nil, but you will find out that they will need some funds from you, ��up front��, to remuneration for the paper work, crossing some official��s palm next to silver and so on. It��s know as ��914�� because that��s the section of the Nigerian penal code which address these schemes.
