Subject: Compliment of the day
Date: Saturday 15 March 2014
From: "HAMMZA ALI" 
To: sundayndu@yahoo.co.uk

I know you will be surprised to read this mail based on the fact that we have 
not known each other before,but I have no choice than to write you because of 
my present situation.

My name is Hamza Ali, the only son of  a former minister of economics and 
planning of Sudan,Mr.Musa Ali.He was a highly reputable man who opposed the 
Sudanese government of sponsoring the (JANJANWEE REBELS).He was shot by the 
rebels on his way traveling to Khartoum with my sister.My sister died on the 
spot where they were attacked,while the UN/AU PEACE KEEPERS rescued my 
unconscious father.He was later conveyed to Abidjan for medical treatment 
where he later died ,Though his sudden death was linked or rather suspected 
to have been masterminded by the government at that time.

Before he died, he told  me secretly that he deposited the huge sums of money 
in a security company in Ghana.

The death of my father actually brought sorrow to my life. Sir,I am in a 
sincere desire for your humble assistance in this regards.I will have to 
present you to the company as my late father business associate/beneficiary 
and  claim the consignment and at the same time moved it out of Ghana to your 
country where you will invest it into a lucrative and profitable business  
for us.If you can assist us,kindly respond to this mail.
Your suggestions and ideas will be highly regarded. Now permit me to ask these 

few questions:-
1. Can I completely trust you?
2. What percentage of the total amount in question will be good for you? 
Consider this and get back to me as soon as possible.

Best Regards
Hamza Ali.

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.
