Hello,  

I am James Pierce ;an accredited vendor of Alliot Groups, a subsidiary firm of 
Emirates International Holding (EIH); A private equity funds holding company 
that focuses on hedge funds.   

I have contacted you in the hope that you can be my associate by accepting to 
stand as the legal recipient to a Fixed-Income deposit, valued at 25MUSD by 
providing an International Offshore account to clear the funds. Please note 
that the success of this transaction hinges on you providing an International 
Offshore account to receive the funds.   

Once I file your details as the new recipient to the funds, the funds will be 
approved through the AUTOMATED CLEARING HOUSE (ACH) - A facility used by 
financial institutions to distribute electronic debit and credit entries to 
bank accounts and therefore settles such entries under the automated clearing 
house system and upon approval of your details as the new recipient; a Credit 
advice will be issued in your favor and the funds will clear in your account 
within three banking days.

I am willing to give you 40% which is 10MUSD as your commission out of the 
25MUSD for your assistance in providing an International Offshore account to 
clear the funds. 

I am confident you will be honest enough to adhere to our agreed commissions 
in spite of the 25MUSD coming through your account. I will need you to 
forward me your legal names address and phone to file your details on the 
fund as the new recipient in this Second Quarter of the financial fiscal year 
2011.    

Looking forward to working with you.

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.
