Hello,

I am sorry for reaching you rather too late due to the situation of 
things right now.,my family and I came down here to Manila Philippines 
for a short vacation and we were mugged at gun point last night at the 
park of the hotel where we lodged,all cash and credit card were stolen 
off us but luckily for us we still have our passports with us..

We've been to the Embassy and the Police here,but they're not helping 
issues at all they asked us to wait for 2weeks but we can't wait till 
then and our flight leaves in few hours from now but we're having 
problems settling the hotel bills and the hotel manager won't let us 
leave until we settle the hotel bills,we are freaked out at the 
moment.Well I really need your financially assistance.All we need is 
($1,980 USD) or anything you can afford.I'll refund it to you as soon as 
i arrive home Hopefully today.Please let me know if you can help us 
out,Write me back so i can tell you how to get it to me.Thank 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, or by email form.
