Heh. It's Allan in the first sentence and Alan on the sig. You'd figure he or his secretary would know which way to spell his Honor's name.

BTW ... there are more sophisticated versions of those scams that you need to watch out for (and warn others about). The scammers are now using information obtained from public sites and stolen from hacked sites to send personalize messages. Sometimes the messages came from, or appear to come from, a person you know. So, be suspicious of every request form help or money that comes by email.

Yep. I got an email from an ex-fiance, saying she had been robbed in England and the police weren't doing much about it and she needed money to pay her hotel bill and for a flight back to the U.S.

I haven't spoken to her in twenty years and got one (1) email from her about ten years ago. That's some serious phishing.

I got one like that asking me to go open an account they could transfer money to. It was part of some job offer as a manager of some sort...

I like the U.N. compensation fund too!. They keep saying they are giving me money for something.

I posted on Facebook not long ago that if they gave me any more money, I'd have to get another bank to hold all the money...

Hey, now I was invited to the party!

This is from a Princess and she needs my humble assistance.
It mentions God and blessings so it's got to be legit!
She promises the transaction is 100% risk free.
She states: "She was happy to see my contact." She sent it to my Odd'l Rockets mail address, so I trust her even more.
I can't wait to get her picture. If she's not wearing a tiara, I won't send her any more bank account or Social Security numbers.
Wow, a princess! Does this make me a prince? It's a rocket nerd's dream come true, better than a cheerleader!

HELLO & Greetings to you.
I am writing this letter in confidence believing that if it is the wish of God for you to help me and my family, God almighty will bless and reward you abundantly and you would never re-great this.

I am a female student from Burkina Faso University Teachings Hospitals (BUTH) Burkina Faso , Ouagadougou . My father died earlier eight months ago and left I and my junior brother behind. He was a king, which our town citizens titled him over sixteen years ago before his death. I was a princess to him and my mother is not literate enough to know my father's entire wealth.

He left the sum of USD $4.350.000.00US dollars. In a security company, this money was annually paid into my late fathers account from the Gold mining company and Colton processing Company operating in our locality for the compensation of youth and community development in our jurisdiction.

I don't know somewhere in abroad to invest the money so that my father's kindred will not take over what belongs to my father and our family because I’m a female according to our African tradition.

Now, I urgently need your humble assistance to move this money from the security company to your bank account that is why I felt happy when I saw your contact because o strongly believe that by the grace of God, you will help me invest this money wisely. I am ready to pay 20% of the total amount to you if you can help us in this transaction and another 10% interest of annual after Income to you, for handling this transaction for us, which you will strongly have absolute control over. If you can handle this project sincerely and also willing to assist me in lifting this money to your country, kindly reach me.

Please, note that this transaction is 100% risk free and I hope to start the transaction as quick as possible, I will send you my photograph as soon as I hear from you
Yours sincerely,
Princess. faith nana

Princess NaNa, it just gets better and better!

JI was thinking about this yesterday. We used to use expressions like "you got a 1 in million chance". Well, with the storage capacity and internet bandwidth available to ordinary users now days, it's not that hard to hit a million email accounts. Which means that when a scammer sends his bogus message out (to a million email accounts), he's gonna find at least one recipient naive enough to take the bait.
