    Odd mail

    just got this weird mail saying they got my name and email off Mmo champoin, anyone else got this? Weirdest mail ever!


    From Miss Ameena Mohammad.
    Country: Cote D'Ivoire.
    City: Abidjan Ivoire Coast.

    Hello dear,

    Dear with profound respect and humble submission,I got your contact in http://www.mmo-champion.com and I beg to state the following few lines for your kind consideration, I hope you will spare some of your valuable minutes to read the following appeal with sympathetic mind. I must confess that it is with great hopes, joy and enthusiasm that I write you this mail which I know and believe by the faith that it must surely find you in good condition of health. My name is Miss Ameena Mohammad, I am the only Daughter of my late parents Mr.and Mrs Ammar Mohammed. My father was a highly reputable business magnet who operated in the capital of Ivory coast during his days.
    It is sad to say that he passed away mysteriously in France during one of his business trips abroad on the 20th May 2008. Though his sudden death was linked or rather suspected to have been masterminded by an uncle of mine who travelled with him at that time. But Allah knows the truth! My mother died when I was just 6yrs old, and since then my father took me so special.

    Before the death of my father on May 2008, he called me and informed me that he has the sum of Six Million, Five Hundred thousand United State Dollars.(USD$6,500,000.00) he deposited in a private Bank here in Abidjan Cote D'Ivoire. He told me that he deposited the money in my name, and also gave me all the necessary legal documents regarding to this deposit with the Bank.

    I am just 21 years old and a university undergraduate and really don't know what to do. Now I want an honest and Allah fearing partner overseas who I can transfer this money with his assistance and after the transaction I will come and reside permanently in your country till such a time that it will be convinient for me to return back home if I so desire. This is because I have suffered a lot of set backs as a result of incessant political crisis here in Ivory coast. The death of my father actually brought sorrow to my life. I also want to invest the fund under your care because I am ignorant of business world.
    I am in a sincere desire of your humble assistance in this regards. Your suggestions and ideas will be highly regarded. Now permit me to ask these few questions:
    1. Can you honestly help me from your heart?
    2. Can I completely trust you?
    3. What percentage of the total amount in question will be good for you after the fund has being transfeered to your account and i come over to meet you ?

    Please, consider this and get back to me as soon as possible. Immedaitely I confirm your willingness, I will send to you my Picture and also inform you more details involved in this matter.
    Anticipating hearing from you soon.
    Thanks and may Allah bless you for your concern to help an orphan like me.
    Kind Regards,
    Miss Ameena Mohammad.

    Scam how? I'm failing to see how that would manage to scam anything out of anyone... lol.

    However, it could have something to do with the total of an hour of sleep I've gotten.

    Oki, remove scam, replace with Fraud, they tell you they got a great amount of money.. But let's say need you for something like plane tickets/something and you will get a share of it, so you send the money.. And never hear of it again (Or something like this, not 100% sure, more info on Wikipedia

    Ofcourse its a scam, do you obviously belive someone you dont know would transfer 6million to your account just like that.
    They are just out to get acces to your bank account and/or identity theft for their own use, and use some poorly written sentimenal crap e-mails like this one so you can feel sorry for them and go along with it.

    this is a classic scam. when you respond, they will ask you for money to help pay the transaction, and some other items needed to get the money with promise of refunding the cash once the millions clear. of course, they just take your money and run. these were coming out of africa when they were first put together, and a lot of suckers fell for it (you). just think, would you trust 6.5 million to a total and complete stranger?

    Retarded to even continue reading that mail after money is mentioned in it.

    A 21 yr old girl with 6.5mil dollars want to come live under your care after her father died from what sounds like a plot from bad tv soap.

    And out of all the people in the internet she chooses you from a site committed to an online game news.


    I think it sounds full proof and you should jump on the opportunity immediately! To show how trusting you are you should also give out your social security number.

    Read up on Nigerian 419 scams. That's all this is.

    For some fun go to www.419eater.com to see how some people scam or humiliate them back.

    Got one of those this morning. All I did was reply "Cool story bro" and went on with my life.
    This line will not change of my own volition until Knaak stops screwing Warcraft Lore to write more bad fanfics.

    Thanks Amuno!

    I've gotten those, one from some chinese guy of some kind...

    Though I think the easiest way to fix those kind of scams is by replying back with the following message

    its very subliminal, and yet effective.
