Subject: Greetings to you
Date: Saturday 22 January 2011
From: Margaret Campbell 
To: undisclosed recipients:

Greetings to you

With Due Respect and Humanity, I was compelled to write to you under a 
humanitarian ground. My name is Mrs. Margaret Campbell. I was born in 
Baltimore , Maryland ,I am married to Mr. Dave Campbell director J.C 
Industries Cote d'Ivoire.We were married for 36 years without a child. He 
died after a Cadiac Arteries Operation.

And Recently, My Doctor told me that I would not last for the next six months 
due to my cancer problem (cancer of the liver and stroke). Before my husband 
died last year there is this sum $2.8 Million Dollars that he deposited in a 
bank here In Ivory Coast.Presently this money is still in the bank. Having 
known my condition I decided to donate this fund to any good God fearing 
brother or sister that will utilize this fund the way I am going to instruct 
herein.

I want somebody that will use this fund according to the desire of my late 
husband to help less privileged people, orphanages, widows and propagating 
the word of God. I took this decision because I don't have any child that 
will inherit this fund, And I don't want in away where this money will be 
used in an ungodly way. This is why I am taking this decision to hand you 
over this Fund. I am not afraid of death hence I know where I am going. I 
want you to always remember me in your daily prayers because of my up coming 
Cancer Surgery.

Write back as soon as possible any delay in your reply will give me room in 
sourcing another person for this same purpose, hoping to read from you ASAP. 

God bless you as you give attension to the voice of reasoning,
Mrs. Margaret Campbell.

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.
