Hi: I have3 a couples of stories to talk about this. Jejej I have even interchanged mail with those guys doing that. Do the following. If they are a prince or a king or a pressident or whomever wants to give you millions. Jejej tell them to pay you the airplane ticket that you have no money at all. Jajaja is only a couple of thousands that compared to a million is nothing. If they do jeje you take a free vacations. Beleive me you will receive an excuse. The intention behind those mails is to steal your money getting your data and make someone similar to you to for instance make bank transactions etc. Beware in such case you could later become a problem that needs to be erradicated so by all means never give your personal data. When you find someone owning a fortune beleivme it worth it to do that. They ask personal information as well as pictures of you. You could even follow them with the game and give them fake pictures or fake data. I remember that once one of them said he was from my country. Jejej instead of a message in english I made the guy to translate the mail if he wanted to answer me. And he/she did and also investigated. He complainted about the language that he left tha country a long time ago. Jajajaj it was very funny to look at him/her doing mistakes. Finally he/she gave up with me. Another one also told me to scan my passport and later to send it using a fax or e-mail. Jejej I told him that I didn't have one and that I didn't have the money to get it that if he could send me that it was all right. I received an excuse and never knew about that guy again.

Hi, has anyone else received this? I seriously cannot believe that someone would be so mundane in thinking that people would reply to this.

Before I wrote you,I prayed that you will be a honest and reliable person whom i can work with to achieve this deal of our life.From my section in the bank, I discovered an abandoned sum of FOURTEEN MILLION UNITED STATES DOLLARS ($USD14M) that belongs to one of our customer who died along with his entire famillies,on 25TH JULY,2000 CONCORDE PLANE CRASH[Flight AF4590 ] with the whole passengers on board.The name od the deceased man was (MR. ANDREAS SCHRANNER from Munich,Germany.You have to understand that I come across this huge amount of fund when i was balancing an Internal Audit account of the departmental customers file to submit to the bank management for the annual audit of the year. Since the bank got information about the death of the deceased man, the bank have been expecting his next of kin to apply and claim this fund because the bank cannot release the fund to any a person unless a foreigner apply for the transfer of the fund as the next of kin or relation to the deceased relating to this inheritance, but unfortunately i learnt through investigations that no one has come up for the claim. This is the reason why I am making this business proposal to you so that you will apply to the bank for them to wire this fund to your nominated account as the next of kin or relation to the deceased customer. For us to achieve this businesss immediately,the percentage ratio for sharing the fund when the bank release the fund for you must be arranged accordingly upon your confirmation of your intent. Thereafter I will visit your country for sharing modalities of percentages indicated above.So for the immediate transfer of this fund into your bank account as arranged, you must apply first to the bank as the only existening next of kin to the deceased customer by indicating in the application the bank account information where you will request the bank to wire the fund.So if you accept to help me in order to achieve this great business,i will send to you through email or by fax an application form of claim which you will fill with your account information and send to the bank for the transaction to start immediately.Please i would like you to know the following information.(1.) This business is completely free from risk while your personality and reputation will be protected. (2.)You will not face any circumstances beyond our control because the application will bear the brief information of the deceased which the bank may like to know.(3.) If you will follow my directives,this transaction will be completed within a short time.(4.)You should keep this business CONFIDENTIAL or SECRET until the completion of this deal. Please contact me through my email address so that we will proceed with this business immediately. My regards to your family. Yours faithfully, PRINCE JOCELYN N.B.For more verification about this deal view this webpage below.
