Hello,

I have to thank God this moment for his direction as regards this
mission. God want me to complete this mission hence, I got your
contact.I know you maybe wondering how I got your contact email.

Actually when I heard from the doctor that my condition has become so
critical, I had to reach out to a Christian sister, who assisted me in
searching for your contact in order to help me utilize this wealth the
way I am going to instruct herein, and even the sister that helped me
in this regard doesn't know the purpose for which I intend to use it I
have prayed about it and it has been revealed to me that you can make
judicious use of the resources for its intended purpose.

I am currently sending you this mail from my sick bed in the
hospital.My husband earned these funds (10,800,000.00 USD) but he died
in a plane crash and left everything behind for me and I will join him
soon due to my ill health. Due to my infertility resulting from
medical problems I became barren. God has a reason for everything. I
would want you to contact my lawyer; he will inform you on what to do.
Contact him with the below details:

Barrister Morgan Owen

Ensure to use a greater portion of the funds for its purpose in
fulfillment of my last wish. Furthermore you will never have any
problem with the law as you will only pay some amount to the
government as tax and a minor percentage to settle the bill of the
bank and the most major part you will use to bless God's Children all
over the world.

You are blessed.

Mrs. Helen Cole.

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.
