I know that this mail will come to you as a surprise as we never met
before. I Hoped that you will not expose or betray this trust and

both families. I need your urgent assistance in transferring the sum of
Thirty Eight Million British Pounds Sterling(£38 million GBP)
Immediately to your account.

The fund has been dormant (in-active) for 10 years in our Bank here
without any body coming for it. I want to release the fund to you asthe
nearest person to our deceased customer Late Mr.Gordon Marco(theownerof
the account) who died along with his supposed next of kin in air crash
since on 31st July 2001. The Bank will release the fund to you as the

these funds from the deceased and after due legal processes have been
followed the fund will be released to your account without delay and we

society. This transaction is totally free of risk as the fund is

any other illegal act.

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.
