Sir,
Happy new year 2012 to you!!
I am Michael DS a government servant in Africa.We wish to introduce a mutually
beneficial business that needs utmost
confidentiality and co-operation.
It has a little liability but free and very safe.Its about a sum of $28.6M.This
amount came from an over-invoiced contract
payment to a foreign contractor.The original contractor has been fully paid its
contractual sum and we are now left with the
over invoiced amount of $28.6M which we wish to transfer to a foreign account for
investment and have agreed to share the
money thus, 20% for you for providing an account,10% for taxes in your country and
70% for us the officials.
Funds when successfully transferred to your account will be invested in your country
under your direct supervision.Thanks
Yours faithfully,
Michael DS
These guy will try anywhere

Hey guys, my advice is do not even answer these things. There have been cases where a trigger has been attached, and when you open the email, you open your hard drive to them, and they can get your bank details if you store them on your pc.
As a PI i was able to get software to do just that, in my case it was if i was chasing a dead beat dad. I can tell you the software is even easier to use now then when i was a PI. I talk to a few mates that use the gear and it is just mind blowing the access now. Me, if i see these emails, i just delete without opening, and i find they lose interest in me. ;) ;D

It's about stealing your identity. At some point in the process you would be asked for your card number. But even without that you could get a bad credit rating because they used your identity to get credit somewhere and then disappeared with the goods or money..

I think you should do it. You could then buy up all the remaining Beddies in Australia and buy the biggest garage ever to keep them all in!! :P 8)

Ben, the trick is to get you to pay them a SMALL amount to facilitate recieving richess - that you never recieve.
