Darlene Grace
One out of five!
Dear Friend,
I am Mrs. Darlene Grace, I am a US citizen, 48 years Old. I reside here in New Braunfels Texas. My residential address is as follows. 108 Crockett Court. Apt
303, New Braunfels Texas, United States.
I am one of those that executed a contract in Nigeria years ago and they refused to pay me, I had paid over $20,000 trying to get my payment all to no avail.
So I decided to travel down to Nigeria with all my contract documents, And I was directed to meet Barrister Michael Chilo Esq who is based in bangkok Thaiand the journey was so stressfull because i have to embark on another journey to far away asia Thailand,Barrister Michael is the member of FOREIGN CONTRACT
AWARD COMMITTEE, and I contacted him and he explained everything to me.
He said that those contacting us through emails are fake. Then he took me to the paying bank in Bangkok Thailand, which is Siam Commercial Bank, and I am the happiest woman on this earth because I have received my contract funds of $17 Million USD. Moreover, Barrister Michael Chilo Esq, showed me the full information of those that have not received their payment,and I saw your name as the beneficiary, and your email address/Telephone number and your contract amount,This is what you have to do now.You have to contact him direct on this information below.
His Name: Barrister Michael Chilo Esq
Email:www.bmcchambers@gmail.com
Phone: +66870411288
Office Address: 112 Silom Road Soi Pranakan, Bangkok Thailand.
You really have to stop your dealing with those contacting you okay, because they will dry you up until you have nothing to eat especially Nigerians thats why they moved the paying bank and contract award office down to Asia to avoid hitch from Nigerians. The only money I paid was just $520 for IRS permit, which you know, So you have to take note of that.
Thank You and Be Blessed.
Mrs. Darlene Grace.
Important Notes :-
1. Whatever you do, do not respond to any e-mail like this. If you have given bank details to any fraudster like this, then inform your bank immediately and also make sure that you close the account.
2. If the e-mail mentions a well known e-mail address such as from gmail.com, live.com, yahoo.com etc., then why not forward the offending e-mail to abuse@gmail.com, abuse@live.com etc. Hopefully, they'll remove the e-mail address, which will stop people being sucked in.

I replied to this e-mail, but I'm not sure if it's the reply that these guys were hoping for. Please read:
Dear Darlene,
Thank you so much for your e-mail!! I am so excited at the thoughts of receiving my money!! I really can't believe it.
I am also from New Braunfels Texas, what a co-incidence!
Perhaps you could call me to tell me more about what I need to do, and how much money I can expect to get. I really am so excited.
You can call me on (830) 608-2179 most days between 8:00 am - 5:00 pm.
Or, if you're in my area you would be welcome to come visit me at my house at 1488 S. Seguin Ave, New Braunfels.
Just call in advance to let me know you are coming so that I can make sure that I will be at home. I want to hear everything!!!!!!!
Thank you sooooo much for letting me know about this, I can't wait to meet you.
Kind regards,
Ron Everett.
Please note, the phone number and address that I gave is for the Police Dept. and Ron everett is the Chief of Police there. I know that these guys are not in New Braunfels, or not even Texas, and probably not even in the USA, but at least I will probably have pissed them off a little by giving them a false lead.
That is so funny!
I'm writing a book on all of these scams. Can I use what you said?
Hi James-
I just got the same email, and was surprised at the inventive turn this one employed. Since I'm in San Antonio (which is very close to New Braunfels) I looked Darleen and her address up on the internet, which led me to your site.
I had been thinking of compiling all the scams I receive into a book, but since I see you're already preparing one, I'll just wait and read yours instead. Good luck with it!
Hey there I have been getting so many of these and I am so sick of it!! These scams are so freakin stupid do these people not have anything better to do then rip people off?
About a year or so ago I was watching the local TV news in Seattle. They had a story about the Nigerian scam and about how someone had been taken in for the tune of $25,000 by them. I was starting to feel sorry for the poor dumb fool then they mentioned he was a lawyer. He must be the worst lawyer in the world to be taken it by this scam. All of the sudden I didn't feel sorry but was laughing at this greedy jerk.
Has anyone thought of driving by this address and seeing if it actually exists? Perhaps the occupant, if there is one, does not know that their address is being used in a scam. Just curious. I got the exact same email today and, like so many others, I am sick to death of getting them. I always respond with a very nasty reply! Mindless sheep!!!
I am absolutely fasinated by these scam letters. Can't believe that people actually answer them. Sometimes I get 3 or 4 a day. I have about 600 saved and one day will figure out what to do with them.
my name is Brad and i'm from georgia. yea, these guys tried to get me as well, and i almost believed them, especially when they started talking about the IRS document! lol! but i figured it was a scam because he couldn't answer a lot of my questions and he began to get aggitated. and when i tried to email "Darlene", it came back as a send failure, so i knew it wasn't real then. i hope they get caught and do a lot of time and refund everyone's money that they ripped off!!
Astounding, This has got to be about the 10th scam email i've recieved directly this year, the other 40 or so i've received to date are from friends that had asked me if they where for real, yeah i know my friends arent too sharp, now i just tell then to google the name of the "person" sending then the email. 9 times out of 10 it will yeild a quality website such as this clearly stating something we all know, these people are scum with too much time on their hands.
I want to read the book too, when is it due to be published? lol
all the best
I have just recieved this email, when do they quit?, I have been replying to those who obiviously have the IQ of a jelly bean that my email is being monitered by the FBI, most them haven't
contacted me any further, but when I get rid of a few, more surface. Guess riff raffs of this world need to surface for air every once in awhile.
I also replied to the e-mail, but I wasn't very nice;
You are also a FRAUD!
Perhaps you should try Prostitution, if you need money so bad. At least then, you wouldn't be trying to SCREW innocent people out of their money.
I got the same email but this time in the name of Linda Susan Spray. But for the name change and the story is based in Nigeria, everything else is identical with Darlene's mail!
The scamsters know the old saying, "There is a sucker born every minute" and they are playing upon people's greed. They will be out of business only when people in general stop being greedy. Obviously these scamsters know something about the human psyche, especially since the vast majority of us could do with some millions!
When will the book come out? I am waiting for it, should be entertaining. :-)
Good ol' Ma Grace is still at it. This email arrived in one of my catcher accounts dated May 1/09:

Mrs. Darlene Grace.
(*snort!* She's using a different barrister now, I see!)
To the "Anonymous" who was wondering if this address exists, I don't live near Ma Grace, so I typed the address she gave into google and the address came up in Google Maps.
If someone could find out who owns that building it should definitely be easy enough to find out that there's no Ma Grace living there.
I'm going to go and try to trace the country of origin that she's emailing from -- probably some third world African nation, squeezed into an internet cafe.
I to just received the same email. I went on mapquest.com and it shows that address in the middle of the street. LOL. I also got one from the FBI and have to admit I questioned it a little/looked kind of real. So I called the local fbi office just to make sure.
Well not only is this woman still at it but she's getting younger and changed her name too. Must be all that money she's ripped off all the greedy mugs she's contacted. Anyway, here's what she had to say.

There is no 108 Crockett Street. Also, there is no appartment building there, only duplex units.
I LOVE it when I get these emails! I'm almost disappointed on days I don't get one.
My standard reply:
Thank you for your email! I'm very interested in what you have to say.
My Name is Special Agent James Massey of the FBI's internet crimes task force. I'd be happy to send it to you if you still want the rest of my information. Just let me know. In the meantime, I've passed along your email, phone number and IP address to my superiors who should be contacting you in the near future.
I have been fascinated by these scam letters for the last several years. I can't wait to open my email to see how many new ones I have received! To date, I have saved about 3500 of the Nigerian scam type letters. Do not have a clue as to what to do with them or even why I am collecting them.
Here's another scam mail that I received:
Confirm your transfer of 750,000.00 USD from International Monetary Fund(IMF).contact

I did a trace of the email and it was sent from an address in Santiago, Chile [IP address 200.91.27.34]
It is not only Ma Grace that is trying to separate us from our cash, assuming we're gullible enough or greedy enough to fall for their tricks.
I replied back letting her know that I was hot, young, and in need of a rich cougar, but as yet, no response. Probably not what they were hoping for.
I tried looking up the address on www.whitepages.com. It came up as belonging to Darlene C Grace. I wonder if this means that is really a real person at that address or not. But the e-mail I received did not mention her. It said (the beginning): I am Mr.Jude George, I am a US citizen, 48 years Old. I reside here in NewBraunfels Texas. My residential address is as follows.108 Crockett Court. Apt303, New Braunfels Texas. I never respond to such e-mails. But I think it is weird that when I searched the name on the site I mentioned, the address actually came up as the person some of you others mentioned. Weird
I GOT THIS ON 06/07/2010
