CONFIRMATION OF YOUR FUND TRANSFER

 Attn:  ,

In the course of our General Auditing and Account revision of this second
quarter of the year 2010, we discovered that the Bank Accounts belonging
to some Benefactors have been changed on the basis that the owners have
died some time last year or have given out an authorization note of change
of data.

After the investigations however, it was revealed that there are
Foreigners who are collaborating with Retired Staff to make these changes
illegally without the knowledge of the Bonafide Benefactors and one traced
to your own change is this MRS LINDA RITZ, of MASTERS DELIVERY & SERVICES
(UK) who said you are dead, hence they have forwarded a death certificate
in your bearing our name so as to divert your funds.

They have also forwarded the bank account below as the new account that
will receive this money.

Bank: Hang Seng Bank

Bank Address: 83 Des Veoux Road, Central - Hong Kong

Account Name: Rick Jones

Account Number: 235-325172-882

Bank Code: 024

Swift Code: HASEHKHH

But we wanted to confirm if actually this is true and decided to write to
your email address for confirmation, which after one (1) week from today
and there is no response, we shall then carry out payment in their favor.

If proved otherwise by you that you did not die, please forward to us all
the related Benefactors particulars including your Telephone number,
contact address. copy of your ID These details from you will help to
assist us reach a conclusion that you are not dead.

Anything contrary to this claim will help us charge this man to court and
prosecute him while your fund will be paid to you immediately without any
further delay. You have to get back to us on time for us to commence legal
proceedings against Mrs. Linda Ritz and her accomplices.  Send your
response to: worldbankfile1@yahoo.co.uk

Yours in Service,

John T. White (Head Auditor)

The above is the actual scammer email received. It has been scrubbed of recipient information.
If you received an email like this you have several choices.

Ignore the scammer. Do not respond to emails. Just delete them.
Respond, but only to lead the scammer on--to get a counterfeit check, to report stolen credit card numbers, and to waste the scammer's time. Time spent trying to scam you is time not spent scamming someone else.
Report the scammer to us and we'll post their emails so others will know about that scammer.

Whichever option you choose make sure you do the following:

DO NOT educate the scammer in any way. Educating a scammer makes them better at scamming the next person.
DO NOT let the scammer know that YOU KNOW they are a scammer. The scammer will always be nice to you if they think there's a chance they may still be able to scam you. If they know they've been discovered they will often threaten you. Their threats are empty, but are scary to some people.
DO NOT give the scammer any personal information that they cannot find in a phone book (name, address, and phone.) Feel free to give them lots of incorrect information.

For more information you may contact us by email, email form, or by phone at (801) 277-0888.
