My Ship Has Come In....
« on: November 23, 2012, 09:54:30 AM »
I received this email today.... from Harold Juson [temp@isavalue.com]

Hi,

  I am Harold Juson, head officer of Cargo unit at Atlanta international airport Georgia.  I am contacting you regarding a diplomatic consignment box which the scan report showed some amount of US dollar bills in it.  The box was abandoned by a diplomat from Afghanistan because he was unable to pay the consignment clearance fee of 2,600dollars. The official document of the box has your name, your address and email on it and on my supposition, the box will contain about 1.5 million dollars. I have contacted you individually because I want you to partner with me to complete the delivery of the box to you and to validate my findings, do send me your name, your contact address and your telephone number and if it does tallies, I will go ahead and pay the clearance fee and proceed to your city to deliver the box to you in person but you have to assure me of 20percent of the total money in the box. I will appreciate if you can maintain confidentiality so as to facilitate a successfu  l delivery which can be completed

Regards,

Harold


I'm so excited. I will have to forward this to 419.  :devil

I am impressed by how apparently successful Harold has been in his career, bearing in mind his inability to construct complete sentences :lol

Just tell him to take the $2600 out of the box and ship you the other $1'497'400 :old:

Danny's got the right idea.

The truly horrifying thing about these kinds of scams is, they wouldn't be as common as they are if they didn't work some percentage of the time.

There should be a registry for the people who have fallen for these kinds of scams, just to make certain they're not ever put in charge of anything dangerous or important.

It actually was at one time. Unfortunately some bleeding hearts now require us to protect the "unfortunate" species.

The stupid are actually a protected species now. They are allowed to procreate at will and we are expected to support them and their offspring.

Even those who should know better fall for this. It's amazing.  Citibank once forwarded about a dozen funding requests totaling $27 million.  The only thing that saved them was the scammers tried to use multiple phony accounts and set it up wrong, so they were found out when some of the funds were returned to Citibank as incomplete transactions.
