 hello my dear
      i am very happy to read from you, and thank you very much
for the compliments you are a very loving and caring man. the reason
 why i am looking for a man through the Internet is because the men here
 are only interested in sex, and i believe that i will surely find a
 good and caring man from the internet. my dear the reason why me and my
 mother left Canada is because when my father died we had no money so we came 
here in Cameroon and i finish my university studies here
here it is so difficult to find a job. but i know that if i get to
 Italy i will surely find a job. my dear i am ready to leave my
 country, i have talked with my mother about this and she has
 supported
me because all she wants is the best for me and i believe that
 is
the best for me. yes my dear we have economic problems but i know
 that
one day all will be fine. i have prepared some photos for you andi
hope you love them. i am happy that i found a caring man like you
i am very sorry to border you with my problems. kisses

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.
