Going back 10 yr, the normal scam around the UK, was the email regarding inheritant monies, most probably a guy in Sudan, connections in the UK and the email would say that the persons involved had a million or 2 available funds from a lost or dead person, and for the person in the email to pick it up, collect funds and then pay transfer fees, then keep 10%, funding the rest back...
I trust you, i trust you only and this is why you can be part of this legitimate safe passing...
Well, my man doesnŽt get robbed, he robs the robbers, so he says, ok, I canŽt afford to pay for this but if you deposit the transfer fee of $1200 into my bank, iŽll pay this and pay the rest...
oh, yes, thank you very much, this was done and there we go
after receiving this money, we suddenly heard nothing back from them!
scam the scammers
