Reply-To: "Mr. James Lee" 
Subject: Hello, MySubject (MY-KL 13/07/2016)

Greetings,

I am Mr. James Lee, a citizen of Malaysia.

I write to seek your assistance in helping me to get my funds back.
Some years back I made some investment in Canada and America through an
investment agent, which business has been badly affected, I have asked
that the investment be liquidated and the money transferred to me here
in Malaysia, but the contact agent for payments stated that they have a
new policy not to transfer funds out for now. I'm not capable enough to
make such trip at the moment, due to my present health condition as
advised by my doctor. Please let me know if you can receive the funds
on my behalf, as this does not require any form of expertise or
expenses from your end. All that I need from you is just your honesty,
trust and sincerity. NOTE: I WILL OFFER YOU 10% OF THE MONEY YOU
RECEIVE AND YOU ARE NOT SPENDING ANY MONEY ON THIS TRANSACTION. Here is
my private email ID for easy communication (j_mlee0776@yahoo.com.my) I
will be waiting to read from you to enable me give you more details.
Sincerely, Mr. James Lee

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.
