I have always been careful about giving out my email addresses. Somehow, I finally did receive my first scam letter today. After having been a interested, and thus somewhat informed, browser on 419Eater.com for many months, I think this is an obvious scam letter.
I do not have the mental fortitude to be a scam baiter. But I am hopeful someone on this forum is interested/willing to go have some fun with this one.
Cheers!
[I simply copy and paste the following from my email in-box. I hope that is how I am supposed to do it.]
From:
"Moham Bello" <[email protected]>

To:

DEAR FRIEND,
I KNOW THAT THIS MESSAGE WILL COME TO YOU AS A SURPRISE. I AM DR.MOHAM BELLO "A SECRETARY OF FOREIGN REMITTANCE DIRECTOR BOA BANK HERE IN OUAGADOUGOU BURKINA FASO".I HOPE THAT YOU WILL NOT EXPOSE OR BETRAY THIS TRUST AND CONFIDENT THAT I AM ABOUT TO REPOSE ON YOU FOR THE MUTUAL BENEFIT OF OUR BOTH FAMILIES.
I NEED YOUR URGENT ASSISTANCE IN TRANSFERRING THE SUM OF ($7.6) MILLION TO YOUR ACCOUNT WITHIN 14 BANKING DAYS. THIS MONEY HAS BEEN DORMANT FOR YEARS IN OUR BANK WITHOUT CLAIM. I WANT THE BANK TO RELEASE THE MONEY TO YOU AS THE NEAREST PERSON TO OUR DECEASED CUSTOMER, THE OWNER OF THE ACCOUNT DIED ALONG WITH HIS SUPPOSED NEXT OF KIN IN AN AIR CRASH SINCE JULY 31ST 2000.
I DON'T WANT THE MONEY TO GO INTO OUR BANK TREASURER AS AN ABANDONED FUND. SO THIS IS THE REASON WHY I CONTACTED YOU SO THAT THE BANK CAN RELEASE THE MONEY TO YOU AS THE NEXT OF KIN TO THE DECEASED CUSTOMER. PLEASE I WOULD LIKE YOU TO KEEP THISPROPOSAL AS A TOP SECRET AND DELETE IT IF YOU ARE NOT INTERESTED.
UPON RECEIPT OF YOUR REPLY, I WILL GIVE YOU FULL DETAILS ON HOW THE BUSINESS WILL BE EXECUTED AND ALSO NOTE THAT YOU WILL HAVE 45% OF THE ABOVE MENTIONED SUM IF YOU AGREE TO HANDLE THIS BUSINESS WITH ME.

Welcome to Eater, Augustus.
That is certainly a scam letter. If you have given your email address out anywhere over the Internet, it has been sold or rented and you will receive scam emails and probably spam.
Someone will be glad to bait this one for you. |

Welcome to Eaterworld Augustus.
I have just sent the good Mr Bello this...
Quote: |
Hello again Mr Bello
How are you today?
I have just got off the phone with your cousin Mr Usman Bello. What a
nice man he is and does the Bello name and family proud.
As he requested, I will make the agreed payment regarding the release
fees of $2,955 to him tomorrow morning when the Western Union office
reopens. No doubt he will be in touch to confirm the transaction once
the money is received and collected.
Stay bless and in God's holy bosoms.

Having not baited for over two years (I've take the hobby up again recently) is the dreaded Mr B3II0 still the bogeyman he was? I've been checking the recent posts and he isn't much mentioned these days as far as I can tell. Or do people just not mention his name? |

^^^^No, he isn't. There is a bigger bogeyman in town, one certain Mr G0mer and his gang. |

You're quite safe as long as Mr. GOmer doesn't know that you are asking questions. |

Maybe I'll email Mr. Be11o and ask him!
Edit 2 minutes later.. seems his email bounced back 'undelivered' |

Mr G0mer scares you ?
Ludmi||a is on the prowl again - now be afraid - be very afraid.
She got a response off this reply. Did the Lad read it ?
Quote: |
Hello thank you very much Mr Bell0w
I am Ludmi||a from Sovietska who is work in Paris as model girl and I have been swinkled by a swine bastard person who stolen my money.
Are you wanting to send me a present ? That is all very nice for me and I wonder if you are wanting to be member of my fan club and I can send you photos of me. I do not do very rude fotos but I know peoples say they are very nice.
Maybe we can be good friends if you like me lots, and I can come visit you some time if I am needing to do model shoot with swim wear. Do you have camera ?
Please be telling me more about yourself and if you like to send photo I can think of you when I am in night club.
I am much thanking you
BiBi - Ludmi||a |
He'll be sorry. |
