Examples of the "Nigerian scam" that flood my email box everyday.

Friday, September 30, 2005

Another fake lottery win has hit my mailbox.

This time the scammer does not even bother to get his details right.

In digits he says that I have won 100K Euros, in words he says it is a million.

The spelling and grammar are a disaster area as well. These guys really ought to learn to write English before they attempt to con me out of money.

Pathetic!

PHISH WARNING

There is a mail doing the rounds, purportedly from the Halifax.

It claims that there is in fact a fake email being sent out, asking people to give their passcodes etc.

The mail then says that people should not be taken in by it, and that in order to ensure the Halifax has the correct details the recipient is asked to click on a link and enter his/her passcodes etc.

This is a double bluff.

It lulls the recipient into a false sense of security, by warning of other fake emails.

Do not fall for this.

The mail is a fake.

No legitimate financial organisation will ever send you an email asking you to click through on a link and reveal your passcodes.


Dear Sir/Madam,

Halifax Bank PLC. always maintains the highest security for our clients. Some customers have been receiving an email claiming to be from Halifax, stating that their account has been accessed by an unauthorized third party. It then advises them to follow a link to what appears to be a Halifax web site, where they are prompted to enter their personal Online Banking details. Halifax is not involved with this email and the web site does not belong to us. If you receive one of these emails please contact Halifax direct at .

Halifax is proud to announce their new updated security system. We have updated our new SSL servers to prevent fraud and give our customers a securer online banking service, where there is no risk of fraud and your account details are kept encrypted at all times.

Due to the recent update of the servers, you are requested update and verify your account info at the following link.

Needless to say there is no such lottery, and there most certainly is no prize money awaiting the mugs who fall for this one.

Another scam "out of Africa".

If you receive one of these, throw it away; it is worse than worthless.

Dear Managing Director.

Good day

This is to acknowledge the good report I received about your personality through a good contact I made from the SOUTH AFRICAN Chamber of Commerce. Where a long list of foreign addresses was presented to me. And my intuition told me to contact you in this regard.

First I must introduce myself to you. I am WILLIAMS ZUMA the son of Chief ROBORT ZUMA of Lupane village in Zimbabwe. Your assistance is needed in the family of Chief ROBORT ZUMA of LUPANE village. Last Two years my father was the chief of Lupane village, he sold some plots of land to the white’s farmers companies, in our country and the money that was paid was divided into three parts by him and two parts of the money was used for development in our village Lupane and one of the remaining parts of the money is what my father gained as the chief of Lupane village,

THE AMOUNT IS U$9.1 MILLION (NINE MILLIOM, ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND UNITED STATES DOLLARS), due to the FARMER'S CRISIS in our country Zimbabwe the government began investigating about the lands that was sold to the white farmers and the government asked my father about the lands he sold in the year 2000 and he explained to the government that the land he sold to the white farmers companies is legal and he also explained to the government how all the money was used for the development of the village. but the government lead by President Mugabe was not satisfied.one day while we were in our house a group of unknown men came to our house requesting my father to attend an important meeting,as a chife,he got dressed and went with them and never come back again.the same story were told about other chiefs and some white men who attended the same meeting .

Actually,some money were withheld and shared by the chiefs.before this incident my father had taken me to south africa to deposite the sum of U$9.1 Million United States dollars in a private security company and all the document to this fund is right here with me.this is the purpose of this letter.please I will like you to assist me in transfering this money into your account for a profitable investment in your country.

Rigth now I, my mother and two of my younger ones are now living in south africa as asylum seekers better than staying in my country where live and property are not saved.this money will be useless as long as we remain in south africa because of the south african financial laws which does not give an asylum seekers the right to investment or a banking transaction.

please we have made up our mind to give you 25% of the money and 5% for any expenses that may occure in the process of this transfer.please consider this as a help to a family in dare need of your assistance and do it believing that GOD's reward is worth than that of man.these are the areas I need you most.

(I)TO HELP ME TRANSFER THIS MONEY INTO YOUR ACCOUNT AND IN YOUR COUNTRY.(2)TO HELP ME INVEST THIS MONEY SUCCESSFULLY IN A PROFIT MAKING BUSINESS.TO ASSIST IN FURTHERING MY EDUCATION IN YOUR COUNTRY.

I must make it clear to you that this is a risk free transaction hence all the documents are here with me in south africa, please consider me and do this thing for me.your country may not be suitable for me but i have made up my mind to stay in your country and with you.

From the above, you will understand that my life and that of the entire family depends on this amount, as such I shall be very grateful if you can assist me. Kindly contact me using the above phone number or my email address. Also send to me your private fax and phone numbers for easier communication and confidentiality of this transaction.


Yours Sincerely

MR.WILLIAMS ZUMA

Ho hum, I have won another lottery!

This one claims that I have won $800K, a trifling amount not even worth mentioning.

As with all the other lottery "wins", this one is a fake; designed to entrap the witless and gullible into parting with a "processing" fee.

I hope that those of you who are reading this, are not that witless and gullible as to be taken in by it!

This piece of human trash claims to be a victim of the tsunami, he claims that he lost a lot of his assets but still has over $9M left.

So keen is he to elicit my help, that he sent me the same message three times.

He is a conman, do not fall for his lies.

Dear partner

This letter may come to you as a surprise due to the fact that we have not met personally. My name is Lars Jerry, a business merchant in Indonesia. I was a victim of the TSUNAMI disaster that led over 174,000 people dead in Indonesia's Aceh province.

Well, I lost all my family members and was seriously injured as a result of this catastrophe and currently hospitalised in Dubai, U.A.E. My illness has defiled all form of medical treatment and I only have about a few months to live according to medical report. I have not particularly lived my life so well, as I never really cared for anyone not even myself but my business. But now I regret all these as I now know that there is more to life than just wanting to have or make all the money in this world. Now that I know my time is near, I want to will and give most of my properties and assets to you to enhance the relief of other Asian Tsunami Victims and other charity aid. I have decided to give alms for charity aid, as I want this to be one of the last good deeds I do on earth. But i am afraid most of these charity organisations will use it for their personal interests without someone to co-ordinate this task.

Hence, i am seeking a trust-worthy person who is able to help me carry out this great task. Now that my health has deteriorated so badly, I cannot do this my self any more. I lost alot of money, assests, properties, etc due to this disaster. Meanwhile, i still have $9,500,000.00 USD (Nine million five hundred U. S. dollars only) cash deposit that I have with a Financial Firm Abroad. I will want you to help me collect this deposit and dispatched it for humanitarian aid. Also, you will let them know that it is I Lars Jerry that is making this generous donations to them to serve as memorial while I was on earth. I am writing this from my laptop computer in my hospital bed where I wait for my time to come. I pray that God uses you to support and assist me with good heart.

Also, these are the necessary criteria you have to meet before I will give you the full authority over the fund:

(a). My conviction of your transparent, honesty and diligence and you will treat this transaction as I have instructed you to do.

(b). Upon the receipt of the funds, you will promptly release $3,000,000.00 USD to charity aid to help the needy, $5,000,000 USD will be used for investment and you will ONLY take the balance $1,500,000.00 USD for your noble assistance.

(c). You must be ready to produce me with enough information about yourself to put my mind at rest, by providing your full beneficiary name, your contact address, telephone and fax numbers for further communication.

(d) All necessary legal documentations must be undertaken before you can have the full right over this fund and other properties which i will give to you in due course.

(e) Also, you will be entitle to 20% of the annual income of any investment you wish to go into in rder to enhance further charitable work. I would suggest that you can invest this money into stocks, properties, bonds, etc. or any lucrative business you may suggest.

I will bring you into the complete picture of the transaction when I have heard from you. Your urgent response will be highly appreciated with all your contact details.

Thanks for your anticipated cooperation and Gob bless you.

Yours faithfully,

Lars Jerry.
