Clarkkent Posted July 17, 2004 Share Posted July 17, 2004 I have just received a scam e-mail from a French e-mail address. Juliet Koffi tells a very sad tale and her English is excellent, but it is obviously a scam!They are getting closer to home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caterham7 Posted July 17, 2004 Share Posted July 17, 2004 I've lost count of how many times the 'Nigeria' scam has been e'mailed to me.I have recently been made aware of a scam which is guaranteed to work and make you rich very quickly.For details simply send an electronic money transfer to my swiss bank account HSBC sort code 38-46-89,account no 12786598 for 50 Euro's.On confirmation of receipt of the funds I will e'mail you the details.Regards Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mpprh Posted July 17, 2004 Share Posted July 17, 2004 HiI first saw these scams in 1980, by telex.Of course, it developed into mail, and later fax. Even Esther Rantzen picked it up.Today, 25yrs later it is email.So, who are the people who fall for it ?Peterhttp://tlp.netfirms.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
