People will say ANYTHING to SCAM YOU...
 

read how they say the guy died...


Dear Friend,

May I be granted the opportunity to introduce myself, I am Mr. Zhou Xiaochuan. I am the Governor of Peoples Bank of China, the personal accounts officer to a very great customer of ours by name Giles Hart of UK, a British Telecom Worker. I have an obscured business suggestion for you hence it is very important that I inform you that it has come to my attention that my client Mr. Giles Hart has been reported dead; he was a victim of the recent bomb blast in UK
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/4668245.stm) on July 7th 2005.

Before his death, Mr. Giles made a fixed deposit early last year which has earned interest and totaled Six million and some fractions in Pounds Sterling as of date. He did not specify any next of kin to this amount hence leaving the money to no owner at present. I have decided to get this money out of China with the help of a trust worthy partner whom will help to act as the legal beneficiary entitled to the deposited sum in my bank.
sean balad: I will see that all the required documentation stating that you are the next of kin to Mr. Giles is obtained and the expenses to get this taken care by me. All I need you to do is to act as the next of kin, and help transfer this money safely out of my bank before the Government confiscates this amount. Hence Mr. Giles told me this in secret and has not told any other person as he wanted to use this amount to continue life after retiring from service.
sean balad: I will need you to send me your Full names; Address and telephone contact numbers along with a of copy of any form of your IDENTIFICATION (for my reference) so that I can reach you and inform you on how we are going to successfully carry out this project, I will send you my Identification as soon as I get yours. I want you to know that we will split the amount 45percent each and the balance 10percent will be used to reimburse all our personal investments incurred in the successful conclusion of this transfer.


You can either fax me a copy of your IDENTIFICATION or you can send it to me via scanned email attachment. I look forward to hearing from you.

Yours Truly,
Zhou Xiaochuan.

sad...
But still, a variation of one of the oldest internet scams. Wonder if they still manage to fool people.

didnt take them long.......... people should get their addresses and send them packages with wires & batteries in.

I replied to the email with something about hoping he is the next to be beheaded.

something like that.

made me feel a bit better.

How sad, that some people fall for that anyway :2 cents:
