And when I decide to check and read. "BABOOM" I get bombarded with a serial of "SCAM LETTERS", yes, all fraud. And its truly sad because somewhere out there are people who fall victim to this type of crime.
I have decided to share a many few of this letters with you, so you know what to look for, and share them around so the victim rate to this type of crime will reduce.

Compliment Of The Day!
It is understandable that you might be a little bit apprehensive because you do not know me but I have a lucrative business proposal of mutual benefits to share with you.
Let me start by introducing myself. I am Mr. Hong Wu operations manager of the Bank of China (Shanghai Branch), 200 Mid. Yincheng Rd., Pudong New District, Shanghai 200121, China. I have an obscured Business suggestion for you.
In June, 2003, a certain British Crude oil merchant (Mr.Martin Walker) came to our bank and made a Fixed (Numbered) deposit of Thirty Million United State Dollars (US$30,000,000.00) Only in my branch for 12 calender months. Upon maturity, I sent a routine notification to his forwarding address but got no reply. A month later, we sent a reminder and finally we discovered from his contract employers, the Chinese Solid Minerals Corporation that he died from an automobile accident. On further investigation, I found out that he died without making a WILL, and all attempts to trace his next of kin was fruitless.
After proper further investigations, it was also discovered that he did not declare any next of kin in his official papers including the paper work of his bank deposit and he also confided in me the last time he was in my office that no one except me knew of his deposit in my bank. So, Thirty Million United State Dollars is still lying in my bank and no one will ever come forward to claim it. What bothers me most is that according to Laws of Republic of China, at the expiration of seven {7} years the funds will revert to the ownership of the Chinese Government if nobody applies to claim the funds. What I wish to relate to you will smack of unethical practice but I want you to understand something, It is only an outsider to the banking world who finds the internal politics of the banking world aberrational. The world of private banking especially is fraught with huge rewards for those who occupy certain offices and oversee certain portfolios. You should have begun by now to p
ut together the general direction of what I am proposing.
Against this backdrop, my suggestion to you is that I will like you as a foreigner to stand as the next of kin so that you will be able to receive the funds so that the fruits of this old man's labor will not get into the hands of some corrupt government officials just like that.
MODALITIES:
I want you to know that I have had everything planned out so that we shall come out successful. I shall employ the services of an attorney that will prepare the necessary document that will back you up as the next of kin, and also he will be drafting and tarization the WILL and to obtain the necessary documents and letter of probate/administration in your favor for the transfer. There is a reward for this project and it is a task well worth undertaking. There is no risk involved at all in this transaction as all the paperwork for this transaction will be done by the attorney and my position as the Branch Manager guarantees the successful execution of this transaction.
I have evaluated the risks and the only risk I have here is for you refusing to work with me and alerting my bank. I am the only one who knows of this situation, good fortune has blessed you with a name that has planted you into the center of relevance in my life. Please endeavor to observe utmost discretion in all matters concerning this issue. Once the funds have been transferred to your nominated bank account we shall share in the ratio of 50% for me, and 50% for you. I send you this mail not without a measure of fear as to what the consequences, but I know within me that nothing ventured is nothing gained and that success and riches never come easy or on a platter of gold. Please observe this instruction religiously.
And I will prefer you reach me on my private email address: whong6192@yahoo.com.hk and finally after that I shall furnish you with more information’s about this operation. Your earliest response to this letter will be appreciated.
Do not betray my confidence. If we can be of one accord, we should plan a meeting soon after this project is successful. Please observe utmost confidentiality, and rest assured that this transaction would be most profitable for both of us because I shall require your assistance to invest my share in your country.
Kind Regards,
Hong Wu.

Kindly Get Back to me soon as possible.
From:
Mrs. Anna Gates
Dear Friend,
Kindly permit me.I got your email address from a mail Directory and decided to
personally mail you for a permission to go ahead.
I am Mrs. Anna Rose Gates married to Engr.Gates Harry R., who worked with the biggest Russian oil company Rosneft Oil Company in Russia; before he died in a ghastly plane accident on Wednesday, 4 July, 2001 with our only duaghter;
the plane a Tupolev-154 was en route to the far eastern city of Vladivostok, when it
crashed early on Wednesday near the Siberian city of Irkutsk after attempting to land for routine refuelling killing 145 people on board which include 136 passengers and nine crew members; which include 12 Chinese nationals and six children. You can click on: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/1423128.stm to understand more.
My Husband and me were married without any child; since his death, I decided not to re-marry and presently I am 70 Years old. When my late husband was alive, he deposited the sum of $16.5M (Sixteen Million Five Hundred Thousand U.S. Dollars) with a commercial bank in Europe for save keeping and bond deposit.
Presently this money is still with the Bank and the bank management have just wrote me as the beneficiary to aformetioned sum to either come forward to receive the money or rather Issue a coverage letter of authority/power of attorney to somebody to
receive it on my behalf.
I am presently in a hospital, where I have been undergoing treatment for cancer of
the lungs. I have since lost my ability to speak and my doctors have told me that I have only a few months to live, so I think the best thing to do is to use the money for a charitable purposes. I want a person who is trustworthy, honest and sincere that I will make the beneficiary of my late husband's fund, deposited with the commercial bank in Europe, so that the person can get the money and utilize 75% of this money to fund churches, orphanages, less priviledge and widows around the world.
As soon as I receive your reply I shall give you the contact details of the Bank.
I will also issue you a letter of authority that will prove you as the new beneficiary
of this fund.Please assure me that you will act accordingly as I have stated here and Keep this contact confidential till such a time this funds will get to your Custody.
This is to ensure that nothing jeopardizes my last wish on Earth. I await your urgent reply with your full name, address, direct phone number/mobile and fax number to forward to the bank after sending you the required documents which include, certificate of deposit, bank name, address, phone and fax number,
my husband account number and the mandatory letter of authorization and power of attorney.
Kindly Get Back to me soon as possible
Sincerely yours,
Mrs. Anna Gates
