Rev John Paul

 

Fraud.

One out of five!

Dear Friend,

How are you today? Hope all is well with you and your family? I hope this mail meets you in a perfect condition. I am using this opportunity to thank you for your great effort to our unfinished transfer of fund into your account due to one reason or the other best known to you. But I want to inform you that I have successfully transferred the fund out of my bank to someone else account who was capable of assisting me in this great venture through the help of the diplomat I told you about. Due to your effort, sincerity, courage and trustworthiness' you showed at the course of the transaction I want to compensate you and show my gratitude to you with the sum of $750,500,00.
I have authorized my new secretary who is now also my legal adviser to issue you international certified bank cheque cashable at your bank. My dear friends I will like you to contact my secretary for the collection of this international certified bank cheque.
The name and contact of my secretary is as follows:

CONTACT PERSON: REV. JOHN PAUL
PHONE: +234-805-2253108
Email: egodkonbuna_6@hotmail.com

At the moment, I'm very busy here because of the investment projects which my new partner and I are having at hand in Paris France . Finally, remember that I have forwarded instruction to him on your behalf to send the bank cheque 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.
Hope to hear from you soon.
Dr. Mark More.

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.
