Good day.

I am Dr.bashir sahrizan a citizen of Malaysia.Some years back,i invested some 
amount of money in the US and it has yeilded some good interest which is due 
payment.

For some time now,i have not be able to make any long distance travel because 
of my health, so i wanted my investment liquidated and transferred to my 
account by Swift, but the Investors insist, they can not transfer the funds 
to any bank account outside United State due to their new company policy 
trigered by the prevailing economic meltdown.

Meanwhile, i wanted to travel to the US to get the funds myself but my doctor 
advice against it ,that due to my present state of health i can not make such 
a long distance trip.

So i was told to provide someone in the United State to receive the funds on 
my behalf.

Please let me know if you can handle the funds on my behalf and forward to me.

You shall be entitle to 12% of the money you receive and forward me the 
balance 88% without spending a single cent to your end.

Let me know if you can handle this so that i forward you the contact 
information of the investor and make arrangement on how to receive the funds.

Thank You.

Dr.bashir sahrizan

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.
