Sent to me from a friend, this is a classic overpayment scam, they buy an item for X number of dollars, send you a cashiers check (fake) for 2x the amount, ask you to cash it and wire the difference to someone (themselves) for whatever bogus reason. You lose the money you wired and are also on the hook for 100% plus fees to your bank.
This one tries to make it seem "nice" but using words like Reverend and Evangelical to make it seem OK.
I love this line "Right now am on a business trip in England , but i based in Seattle WA ."

Subject: RESPOND WITH PAYMENT INFORMATION
Hello,
Dial the phone number this way(011)44-703-197-0107
Thanks for the frequent response in this transaction. After proper
evaluation of your vehicle, my client has accepted your price
and the vehicle payment will be sent to you as soon as possible;
my client said that the funds will be in form of a certified cashier's check of
$5,000usd, which will cover all the expenses that concerns this transaction.
He instructed that when the payment get to you, that you are to cash it
right away and deduct the cost of your vehicle which is $2,195usd then
send the remaining $2,805usd to the shipping/pickup agent, their information
will be forwarded to you on the receipt of payment. They will use these
funds to settle all the expenses that concerns the transportation of the
vehicle from the present location to my client place which is Montreal
Canada and also as their payment for the services they are to render in this transaction.
After payment has reached you and balance sent to shipper, the shipper's agent
will come for inspection with a copy of the BILL OF SALE for the pickup
(of vehicle & signing of title papers) and
drive to a prepaid shipper to be shipped to my (client) and also conclude other necessary shipping arrangements.
NB;Before Pastor, David (my client) traveled to Rome today for Evangelical
purposes, he explained to me that why the funds will be on the above amount $5,000usd is because its a donation made by one Christian organization to the church so the
church members now decided to purchase this your vehicle with the money for him.
So this is how we intend completing this transaction smoothly.
In conclusion if it's acceptable to you, forward to me the following below
payment information's for us to proceed with the transaction immediately.
YOUR FULL LEGAL NAME:

I have been waiting for you since to contact me for your Confirmable Bank Draft of $1.5m United States Dollars, but I did not hear from you since for a couple of weeks now. Then I went to the bank to confirm if the draft has expired or getting near to expire and Dr. Wilson the Director of Africa Development Bank told me that before the draft will get to your hand that it will expire also many Foreign banks are reluctant to honor Bank Draft usually come from Africa,so he decided that it would be better that he convert the Bank Draft into cash and packaged your funds of USD1.5 Million in form of Personal Diplomatic Package and send it to you via special diplomatic means and you will receive your funds in your Country. So I told him to cash the $1.5m USD UNITED STATES DOLLARS to cash payment to avoid losing this funds since Foreign banks are reluctant to honor Bank Draft that comes from Africa as I will be out of the country for a 3 Months Course and I will not come back till ending of September 2008.
What you have to do now is to contact R. M. Wanlida Courier Company as soon as possible to know when they will deliver your Package to you because of the expiring date. For your information, I have paid for the delivering Charge, Insurance premium.

Dear Friend,
Please accept my sincere apologizes if my email does not meet your business or personal ethics. I will first introduce myself as MR. BEN DESMOND COLE, the Chief Auditor with NATWEST BANK PLC, LONDON-UK. One of our accounts, with holding balance of £12.5 (Twelve Million Five Hundred thousand pounds Sterling) has been dormant and last operated for years ago. From my investigations, the owner of the said account, Is a foreigner by name MR. JOHN SHUMEJDA who died along with his entire family in crash at Birmingham Airport on 4th Jan, 2002. View this website for verification: (removed)
Since then, nobody has done anything as regards the claiming of this money, as he has no family member that has any knowledge as to the existence of either the account or the funds; I have confidently discussed this issue with some of the bank officials and we have agreed to find a reliable foreign partner to deal with.
My proposition to you, is to seek your consent to present you as the Next of kin and beneficiary of this late client, So that the proceeds of this account valued a huge sum shall be paid to you, and then we can share the amount on a mutually agreed percentage of 30% for you, While 60% for me and others involved, 10% shall be used for miscellaneous expenses while the remainder shall be given to a reputable charity home because the money is owned by a deceased person.
This transaction is totally free of risk and troubles as the fund is legitimate and does not originate from drug, money laundry, terrorism or any other illegal act, funds will be released to you after necessary processes have been followed. Let me hear from you as soon as you get this message, so we can proceed. Reply through my private email address.

Good day!!!
We have been waiting for you since to contact me for your Confirmable Bank Draft of £18 Million (Eighteen Million Pounds sterling) but I did not hear from you since for a couple of weeks now. Then I went to the bank to confirm if the draft has expired or getting near to expire and World Bank told us that before the draft will get to your hand that it will expire.
So we told him to cash the £18 Million (Eighteen Million Pounds sterling) to cash payment to avoid losing this fund under expiration as we will be out of the country.
What you have to do now is to contact FED EX COURIER SERVICES as soon as possible to know when they will deliver your cheque to you because of the expiring date.You can contact FED EX COURIER SERVICES if the funds belong to you.

United Nations Home Equity Relief - Scheme / Scam
Nice of them to say right in the description that it is scheme, not their intent I am sure, but it is there never the less "first ever global Home Equity assistance scheme".
Regardless, this is a scam, of course the United Nations has nothing better to do with their time, especially now when the world is at peace than to give away money to help other with their homes, equity and income.
They basically tell you in the email that they will scam money by giving you x.xx dollars and then you wire the balance back, of course the check is fake and after you send the funds you will lose the funds you sent and owe your bank the full value.

NORTON & COUNSELORS AT LAW / FedEx Email and Money Scam
At least this scam tells you right away you will lose $72 so I give them credit for that. However you could lose more, as if you are gullible enough to send the $72 then they can put you on the hook for more in hopes of the big payout.
Of course all FedEx people use a Yahoo.fr address for their email as FedEx can't afford their own domain (sarcasm) Also (Confirmable) ???

My Dear Good Friend,
Greetings to you & your Family. I have been waiting for you since to contact me for your Confirmable Bank Draft of ($500.000.00) United States Dollars, but I did not hear from you since that time, Then I went and deposited the Draft with ApEx Courier Delivery Company, Cotonou Benin Republic, before I traveled out of the country for a short Course and I will not come back till end of next Month. What you have to do now is to contact the ApEx Courier Delivery Company as soon as possible to know when they will deliver your package to you because of the expiring date of the cheque. For your information, I have paid for the delivering Charges, Insurance fee and Clearance Certificate fee of the Cheque, showing that it is not a Drug Money nor to sponsor Terrorist attack in your Country.
The only money you will send to the ApExCourier Company to deliver your Draft direct to your postal Address in your country is ($72dollars) only being their Safety Security Keeping of the Draft for you so far. Again, Do not be deceive by anybody to pay any other money except $72.00, I would have paid that but they said no because they don't know when you will contact them and in case of demurrage. You have to contact the ApEx Courier Delivery Company now for the delivery of your Draft with this information bellow.

I am waiting to hear the good news from you.

Nigerian Scam from Nana Mensah
Very typical Nigerian Scam, easy to avoid by remembering that no one is contacting you by email, phone or smoke signals or any other method to give you 30% of millions of dollars they are hiding in an account.
---------------------
From:Nana Mensah.
The Manager Standard Chartered Bank,
First Light Branch
Accra Ghana.
Attn:
I got your contact during my search for a reliable, honest and a
trustworthy person to entrust this huge transfer project with.
My name is Mr.Nana Mensah. I am the manager of the Standard Chartered
Bank, First Light Branch, Accra Ghana . I am a Ghanaian, married with
two kids.
I am writing to solicit for your assistance in the transfer of funds
valued at $5,620,000.00 (five million six hundred and twenty thousand
United States Dollars.)
This fund is the excess of what my branch in which I am the Manager
made as profit during the last annual audition. I have already
submitted an approved end of the year report for the year 2007 to my
head office in Accra here and they will never know of this excess. I
have since then, placed this amount of value $5,620,000.00 USD in a
suspense escrow account without a beneficiary.
As an officer of the bank, I cannot directly be connected to this
money thus I am impelled to request for your assistance to receive
this Money into your bank account. I intend to part 30% of this fund
to you as compensation while 70% shall be for me. I do stress that
there are practically no risk involved in this. It is going to be a
bank- to -bank transfer. All I need from is to stand as the original
depositor of the fund.
If you accept this offer, I will appreciate your timely response.
Yours Sincerely,
Nana Mensah.

valued at $5,620,000.00 (five million six hundred and twenty thousand
United States Dollars.)
This fund is the excess of what my branch in which I am the Manager
made as profit during the last annual audition. I have already
submitted an approved end of the year report for the year 2007 to my
head office in Accra here and they will never know of this excess. I
have since then, placed this amount of value $5,620,000.00 USD in a
suspense escrow account without a beneficiary.
As an officer of the bank, I cannot directly be connected to this
money thus I am impelled to request for your assistance to receive
this Money into your bank account. I intend to part 30% of this fund
to you as compensation while 70% shall be for me. I do stress that
there are practically no risk involved in this. It is going to be a
bank- to -bank transfer. All I need from is to stand as the original
depositor of the fund.
If you accept this offer, I will appreciate your timely response.
Yours Sincerely,
Nana Mensah.

Another Microsoft Bogus Email Lotter Scam
Another twist on the Microsoft Lottery Scam (see blog post prior to this one). This one is especially silly as they say they are from Microsoft Corporation, but to reply you need to email a Yahoo Account.
If I won an email lottery, why don't they know my email address?
Do they not read the news.. the MS buyout of Yahoo did not happen, it is not the same company, so MS employees do NOT have Yahoo email addresses.

Twist on Yahoo & Microsoft Email Lottery Scam
What worries me more about this twist on one of the older web scams is the email / domain goes back to someone in the USA. The owner of the email / site is

The email award scam I think is the oldest known scam, been around forever with many twists. The rule is simple, not now, not ever, not in a billion years will Microsoft and/or Yahoo or other company give away money in this fashion. They don't have lotteries, they don't have prizes like this.
Avoid this email scam at all cost. You will lose money, no doubt, 100% of the time they will ask you for money for taxes or transfer fees etc.. and you wire the money and lose your money. This one even invites you to fly to the UK to get your money… sad.

Nigerian Scam FedEx Courier Service / Fraud - Fake - Email
Being a FedEx Drop Off does not make this any sillier, it is an insane attempt at a very badly written scam.
My favorite parts of this scam..
1. Clearly states it is from Nigeria, so a big scam right off the bat.
2. Says they are from "Wes Africa" (sounds like a good movie star name)
3. Says they are from FedEx but wants you to email rsingh.01@hotmail.com
4. Email was sent by bukvic76@024wifi.net
5. They said we are a client, but they don't know our name??? WTH?
Oh well, a bad scam, but yet someone will answer and believe it is real, at least you won't.

Scam Email / Fake: Notice From Department of the Treasury
Scam Email / Fake: Notice From Department of the Treasury, received today 5/16. Senior are especially vulnerable to IRS scams.
There are so many things wrong with this email to make it obvious that it is a scam, the first one is that the IRS does not email you regarding a refund or claims, you will be contacted by a letter.
Also a 501(c) (3) is not a "refundable issue" but a charity non-profit category for a business / company. You don't get a refund under any section of501(c) (3)
Other obvious facts..
1. Bad Spelling (he maner of section; and the realtionship) to name only two.
2. The fact the email was sent from "thecollegehotel.com" in Amsterdam Holland
3. That the link (removed) takes you to a website called "indopreneur" with a copy of the IRS site. This site is very dangerous as it asks for your SS# as well as Credit Card Number and CVV and your PIN Code. Can red flags be any redder?
4. There is a 4 and a 5 and 6 but why bother, this is enough, totally clear… what a fake!

Nigerian Scam > law.frankdean@hotmail.com >: Keep Me Informed
A clear and common scam, maybe a bit better written then most, but still clearly and 100% a true scam. Regardless there are still clear typos and context issues that would scream out to everyone that this email is not written by an attorney.
Please remember people, there is no free money out there, avoid these scams.

Greetings my dear friend,
How are you today?I have long expected a responds from you considering my earlier email to your personality before this last one, Please my dear friend I know this email has come to you again as a surprise, considering that we don't know each other and I must apologize for any embarrassment this might cause you.i got your contact on the email directory, but I took some factors into consideration before arriving at the decision to contact you which you will find out as you read on.
First of all let me introduce myself, my name is Barr. Frank Dean from london, the personal lawyer to Late Mrs. Juliet wilford,my self is married to my dear wife Mrs.Claire Dean and am blessed with two good-looking kids (Maryann and George dean)also i am an attorney at law with an International accredited law Firm Based in London( Dean & William Chambers Ltd).My service covers individuals, corporate bodies and institutions.
I confidently wish to engage in a trustworthy interest with you.On the 21st of April 1998, my late client Mrs.Juliet Wilford who declared her individuality to be a National of your Country as a result of decision was involved in a car accident and unfortunately for her she lost her valued life.she lived most of her lifetime and was resident in London before her demise, due she was not married.
My Late client had an account with a bank in UK valued about 4.5million Pounds sterling. Presently the Finance Vault (Bank) management has issued me as the personal attorney to the deceased with a notice to contact the relatives to come up for the claim of the money left behind by the late sister hence it has been a long time their sister died and Consequently after some years if no next of kin come up for the claim the account will be declared sequester and the fund diverted to the Bank Treasury Department as unclaimed inheritance.
I have been unsuccessful in my numerous efforts to search out anyone related to my late client,all has proved abortive and since i have been the personal lawyer to late Juliet spanning for a period of fifteen years, according to my late client, she told me she was raised up from an orphanage home, having been abandoned by her mother at birth.With this regard nowadays, I am urgently in need of a trustworthy individual from your country to present to the bank as the late client distant relative which the inheritance funds will be transferred to without any further Inconveniences hence the reason for contacting you .though the deceased client declared her individuality to be a National of your Country as a result of decision.
My dear good friend unfortunately the deceased left no record of any relative in my file, this entitles the claim as a relative and under the existing law here the Surviving relatives of the deceased by extension of family lineage becomes the benefactor which to the best of every knowledge is non-existing considering her background as an orphan and the management of the Bank insisted they will only release the fund to the deceased relatives by extension of family lineage.
I wish to solicit for your co-operation in assisting secure the fund by permitting me to present you to the bank and the proceed of this money can be transferred into your nominated account without no further delay, subsequently to be shared among us only on your acceptance to be honest and trustworthy. I am very very optimistic that it would workout if you follow my directives, which I will brief you upon your response.
Furthermore, all i require is your honesty and Confidentiality in co-operating and the transaction will excel. I Swear and guarantee that this will be executed through a genuine/officially recognized arrangement.

Fake Microsoft Sweepsakes Scam > YOU HAVE WON 650,000 POUNDS!!!
Funny, Microsoft located in Washington USA, has a UK Sweepstakes and you
have to email browniejames@yahoo.com a Yahoo.com person. Come on people,
make it even slightly believable!
have to email browniejames@yahoo.com a Yahoo.com person. Come on people,
make it even slightly believable!
The scam part will of course be that you either need to wire money for the
taxes or they will send you a fake check to deposit and wire the taxes back
to them so they can send you the balance of the money. Once the check
bounces you are out 100% of the funds.

SCAM Amazon Phish: Amazon Marketplace Items Canceled
Not a bad phish except for the bad design or execution. The links actually take you to a fake Amazon site in Russia and asks for your login. Once they have your Amazon login, they can then order items using your credit card, and ship it to people in the USA who they have already set as “reshippers” (another scam) and then pack the items up and send them overseas to the scammers who can then resell the items.

Royal PITA Scammers = Green Tree (Warehousing) Ltd.
I have never been so frustrated with a company that scams people more than I am with Green Tree (Warehousing) Ltd. This company (if they are indeed a company) are brutal, they have spammed my mailbox with over 84 emails in the last 3-weeks trying to get me to "Take a job" which is clearly and obviously a well documented scam.
They even have a bogus website that makes them seem legit. It is scams like this that is most dangerous as they make it seem real, authentic and most scary... profitable.
They can easily trap people because of their website, the fact they talk about business meetings, advancement, management positions and more "biz" concepts. Their website is of fair quality and can easily confuse people into being ripped off.
Their website has changed domain names / urls about 4 times in the last two months because their hosts keep shutting them down, for now they are at greentwld.net. Please feel free to view their garbage while they are still online, but please do not fall for this complete scam / rip off.
Their domains move so fast it is hard to find out who is behind these sites, the whois is only showing reserved for now... but by the time you read this, more info may be available.
Their scam is common, you receive a payment, deposit it, wire the money less your commission and then you wait for your bank to tell you the checks / payments are fake.
You will be on the hook for 100% of the payment to your bank which could easily be in the 10's of thousands.

Nigerian Bank Scam > FW: From:Mr. Austin Jacob.
I would really think that this type of scam would stop, because I would believe that people would be bright enough to not fall for this scam. If people never fall for it, then the scammers won’t keep sending these garbage emails. I have not even bothered to read the whole scam as the text is redundant, they are all the same garbage. I can see that this one even asks right up front for all your bank information. Very sad, please don’t fall for these scams and help stop others from being ripped off!

Hello,
Do accept my sincere apologies if my mail does not meet your personal ethics although, I wish to use this medium to get in touch with you first because it's fastest means.
I am an external auditor of a well known bank here in the United Kingdom.
In one of our peroidic auditing I discorverd a dormant accounts with holding balance of 52,000,000 (Fifty Two Million British Pounds) which has not been operated for the past three years. From my investigations and confirmations, the owner of this account, a Foreigner by name Mr.Gregory .B.Wilson died in plane crash in July 19,2003 and since then nobody has done anything as regards the claiming of this money because he has no family members who are aware of the existence of neither the account nor the funds.
I have secretly discussed this matter with a top senior minister official of the federal ministry of finance here and we have agreed to find a reliable foreign partner to deal with us although due to his possition he did not want to take active part but as soon as you follow my instructions everything will be successfull because we will be woking hand in hand with him. We thus propose to do business with you, standing in as the next of kin of these funds from the deceased and after due legal processes have been followed the fund will be released to your account without delay and we will use it for investment and to assist the less privelaged in the society because if we left the fund with the government it will be fortified for nothing and will be used to suppress the poor masses in the society.
This transaction is totally free of risk and troubles as the fund is legitimate and does not originate from drug, money laundry, terrorism or any other illegal act.Finally, I will give you 35% for your coporation,5% will be for expenses both parties might have incurred during this process. On receipt of your response I will furnish you with detailed clarification as it relates to this mutual benefit transaction.
You should send me Your account information as states below where you like the money to be transfer so that i can
send application for the release of the fund immediatelly with your account information.Even an empty account is
ok.
Bank Name..............
Bank Address...........
Beneficiary Name.......
Account Number.........
Swift Code.............
Your Tel/Fax Number....
Routing Number.........
State & Country........
I look forward to hear from you as soon as possible if you are interested.

Nigerian Scam Dr. Anthony Ekpo
Not as bad as some, only asking $195 courier fee, which sadly is a low
enough amount that I am fairly certain a few hundred people will fall for
and will be short $200 this week. What can make it worse is that
"additional fees" may show up to scam more money out of those who will
already fall for this email scam.
