GOOD DAY,

For your kind attention, I need your help in transferring some huge amount of 
money to your private account. This money has been dormant for years in our 
Bank without claim. I want to release the money to you as the beneficiary to 
our deceased customer (the account owner) who died along with her family some 
time ago by showing your interest I will send you the full details on how the 
business will be concluded.

Please reply urgently with this email address gaziahmed001@yahoo.com if you 
are interested.

Best wishes to you.

Mr. Gazi Ahmed

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.
