Song Lile

 

Fraud.

One out of five!

Good Day,
My name is Mr. Song Lile i am the director of operations in Hang Seng Bank,Hong Kong. I have a business proposal in the tune of $19.5m, after the successful transfer, we shall share in ratio of 30% for you and 70% for me. Should you be interested, please contact me through my private email (song.lile0005@yahoo.com.hk), so we can commence all arrangements and I will give you more information on how we would handle this project.
Please treat this business with utmost confidentiality and send me the
following:
Full names
Phone number
Address
Occupation

Kind Regards,
Mr. Song Lile

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've already had hundreds of emails off this Guy, now i tend to reply with lots of nonsense.

Why the hell would somebody try this? i mean, who in the world is going to be Stupid Enough to fool for them!

+ reporting them won't really work, as this guy has used a different email address every time He/She has tried it on me, so delete and block has no effect

Don't bother.

It'll only confirm your e-mail address and you'll get more spam.

Report every one to the bank.
