They're getting some really creative writers into the biz now

http://www.fbu.gov
Anti-terrorist &monetary crime division
Attention: fund beneficiary

This is an official advice from the fbu foreign remittance/telegraphic
Dept. it has come to our notice that the h.s.b.c bank Liverpool
District, has released u.s dollars into your account
Here in the United States of America, by atm means.

The bank of Africa knowing fully well that they do not have
enough facilities to effect this payment from United Kingdom to your
account, used what we know as a secret diplomatic transit payment
S.t.d.p to pay this fund through atm, they used this means to complete
the payment, and instead of paying , they paid
they are still, waiting for confirmation from you on
the already transferred funds which was converted to atm so that they can do final crediting to your account.

Secret diplomatic payments are not made unless the funds are related to
terrorist activities why must your payment be made in secret transfer,
if your transaction is legitimate, if you are not a terrorist, then
why did you not receive the money directly into your account; this is
a pure coded, means of payment? Records which we have had with this
method of payment in the past has always been related to terrorist
acts, we do not want you to get into trouble as soon as these funds
reflect in your account in the u.s.a, so it is our duty as a word wide
commission to correct this little problem before this fund is
delivered. due to the increased difficulty and unnecessary scrutiny by
the American authorities when funds come from outside of Europe, and
the Middle East, the f.b.i bank commission for Europe has stopped the transfer on
Its way to deliver payment of $10,000,000.00 to debit your reserve
Account and pay you through a secured diplomatic transit account (s.d.t.a).
We govern and oversee funds transfer for the World Bank and the rest of
the world. we advice you contact us immediately, as the funds have
been stopped and are being held in our office here, until you can be
able to provide us, (with the encoded f.b.i order for transfer),we
advice you present us with a diplomatic immunity seal of transfer
within 3 days from the bank where the funds where transferred from for
us to certify that the funds that you are about to receive from
Africa is antiterrorist/drug free or we shall have cause to cross
And impound the name we have on the fund as the rightful beneficiary is
your name that is why we have decided to contact you directly to acquire the Proper verifications and proof from you to show that you are the rightful person to receive this fund, because the above
mentioned Amount is a big amount of money, that is why we want to make sure is a clear and legal money you are about to receive be informed that the fund have hit your account, but right now we have ask the bank no to credit your account because you are to forward the documents to us immediately if you have it with in your possession, if you don't have it let us know so that we will direct and inform you where to obtain the document and send to us so that we will ask the bank holding the funds the bank of America to go ahead crediting your account immediately. These documents are to be issued to you from the place where the fund was transfer from, so get back to us immediately if you don't have the document so that we will inform you the particular place and what it will takes to obtain it in Africa, because we have come to realize that the fund is transferred from Africa.

An fbi identification record and certificate of ownership often referred to as a criminal history record or rap sheet is a listing of certain information taken from fingerprint submissions retained by the fbu in connection with arrests and, in some instances, federal
employment, naturalization, or military service. This condition is valid until 1st of Juy 2008 after we shall take actions on canceling the payment and then charge you with the for illegally moving funds out of Africa.

Guarantee: funds will be released on confirmation of the document.
Documented proof of ownership .final instruction: 60f credit payment instruction: irrevocable credit guarantee 61ebeneficiaryhas full power when validation is cleared 62 beneficiaries bank in u.s.a. , can only release funds- 62 upon confirmation from the world bank/united nations.

zala

i am deeply concerned that the bank of africa have given me an std transfer. should i go to the doctor or clinic before i send my details for final transfer?

and if the relevant fbi agent who comes to investigate looks like this fbi agent from the tv show numb3rs - should i give him all my details and numbers - including my phone number?

help me. if i am given one phone call - may i call you? and if i do - will i have to use the entire 50c that the bank of africa could afford to transfer into my account?

"And it's not only poor and/or uneducated street criminals that perpetrate these scams. Many of these scammers are very well educated. Often bureaucrats are involved, either acting on their own or with the blessing (and even the support) of their corrupt government employers, as demonstrated by these scam e-mails sent from a Malaysian government computer or this one sent from a Brazilian government computer."

yes, they are really getting creative. but the spelling!! i've had the FBI one several times. imagine if they were really from the FBI and they're preparing us all to be rounded up for our supposed money-laundering activities! and imagine how many people are scared into opening these things up! they should be reported to the FBI!!

i've had some seriously real-looking phishers pretending to be my bank, as well. lucky for me i called the bank which is when i learned that IF IT HAS A LINK TO CLICK it is unlikely to be from your bank, or any "secure" sender...

i know someone who received one of these things which purported to be on behalf of someone he knows who lives out of country...we never did figure out how they knew he knew the other person at all...! but they did and they were threatening his friend with all kinds of crapola if he didn't fork over a few thousand dollars...

are there really people dumb enough to fall for these things? i suppose there must be since there are so many attempts. or maybe they just operate on the premise that if you send enough out SOMEone will click the link if only in error..?
