Subject: PLS. Save ME and My Funds..
Date: Thursday 18 November 2010
From: "Ms. Nussy Collins" , "Ms. Nussy Collins" 

To: undisclosed recipients:

Sincere Greetings!

I want you to please spare me 3minutes of your  time to read this pathetic 
story 
of mine life. I am Nussy Collins, the  daughter of late Mr. and Mrs. Collins. 
I 
am citizen of Abidjan in Ivory  Coast. My late parents was victims of 
political 
crisis in my country. My  late father was a reputable cocoa farmer and I am 
their only surviving  child.

My late father left me an account worth US$12.8Million with a bank  in Benin 
Republic owing to political instability in my country he could  not deposit 
the 
funds in my country as the economy of my country is  unstable due to political 
crisis each and every other time. The problem  that I am having is my uncles 
who 
believe by traditional rights they are  supposed to inherit my late father's 
assets. The issue became serious  when they innocently took me to our farm 
lands 
in order to show me my  father's landed properties not knowing that they 
planned 
to kill me in  the bush. To bring the long story short I was saved by a hunter 
who  brought me to the hospital where I spent six months. 

I promise to return him a favour after I am through with the transfer of my 
funds.

Please,  I need you to secure these funds into your bank account so that I can  
relocate to your country, right now I have left my country into Benin  
Republic 
where my uncles cannot find me again. The problem I am having  now is that my 
father left an agreement with the custodian of the funds  that I must get 
married before I can come up to claim the funds or have a  foreign partner who 
will assist me secure the funds and have it  invested into a lucrative 
venture. 
This is where I need you to act like  my husband or take the position of a 
foreign partner in order to have  the fund transferred to your bank account.

I will be glad to hear from you and please send me also your details for me to 
know you more.

Yours Sincerely
Ms. Nussy Collins

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, or by email form.
