Re: Hello My Friend

Clearly if "Mr Kelvin Walter" did work for HSBC "in the United Kingdom" he would be out of a job and probably in a Police cell by tomorrow morning.  Offering to give millions of dollars to random people isn't something the bank would be very keen on!

As it is, he doesn't work for HSBC or any other bank and he doesn't live in the UK.  His email was sent from Bucharest in Romania.

Ignore this scammer who is after your money and will happily take as much from as you are prepared to send him.

Good day,

This is a personal email directed to you for your consideration alone, I humbly request that it remain and be treated as such only. Please bear with me for I am a banker with HSBC in the United Kingdom. I have an interesting business proposal for you which I think will be of immense mutual benefit.Although this may be hard for you to believe, we stand to gain 7.2 million USD between us in a matter of days. Please grant me the benefit of doubt and hear me out. I need you to signify your interest by replying to this email.

I will make more details available to you on receipt of a positive response from you. Please Do contact me only at my private email address: ( kwalter@blumail.org ) or call ( +44 701 704 7713 ).

Warm regards

Mr. Kelvin Walter

Part-Time Vacancy

This is one of those "fill in the blanks" type scams.  The scammer is supposed to personalise the scam email. The bit where it says "welcoming speech" is supposed to be changed to something more sensible.  Clearly this scammer is short on brains and didn't realise that!

This could be part of a money laundering operation. These scams work like this.  You are sent a payment, asked to deduct your salary from it and then forward the rest to a third party.  After you've done this, the original payment is withdrawn from your bank account, leaving you out of pocket with no way of recovering the money that you forwarded.

FROM MRS EUNICE

Obviously, if "Mrs Eunice Ansah" really was a dishonest bank auditor, she whouldn't send random emails to thousands of unknown people telling them just that.  She'd spirit the money away somewhere for her own use.

As she isn't anything she says, s/he has sent you this scam in the hope that you will fall for the idea of being given millions of (non-existent) dollars.  If you do, she will start asking you to send money, and she will continue to ask you to send money for as long as you are daft enough to send it.

Dear Friend, I am Mrs.Eunice Ansah,An Auditor in (ICB) Bank Ghana,I am here to bring to your notice that I have an important business transaction i wish to share with you which i know will benefit both of us. I am the Account Officer of late president of Libya,Mr.Muammar Muhammad Abu Minyar al-Gaddafi who deposited the sum of $10.7 Million in my bank on the 29th,July 2009 and he would have laid a claim to the money in July 2011 as the date of maturity.But he could not due to his Political upheaval. Now non of the member's of his family knew about this fund since his death on October 20th 2011,And no one has come for the claim,My bank manager is expecting if any one of his family member will appear as his next of kin to this fund,Since no one has come for the claim,I am now contacting you to act as the next of kin to this inheritance fund to the late President. I don't want you to betray me at the end of this transaction and i don't want you to entertain any atom of fear in your mind upon this transaction for i have prepared myself before contacting you in this transaction. So 40% of this funds will be for you while i will take 60% of it.My share will assist me to start my own company which has been my dream and also help the less privileged one's. If you are interested kindly get back to me so that i will send you the detail's regarding the transaction and we shall go over the details one's i receive your urgent response. Best Regards: Mrs.Eunice Ansah International Commercial Bank.Ghana.

This is a classic "advance fee" scam.  The scammer even tells you how much money to send them for your first payment.  I'm sure that if you make the mistake of sending them $150 they will quickly think of a reason to ask  you for more money.  They will keep asking you for money as long as you are daft enough to keep sending it.

You know as well as I do that you aren't expecting anyone to send you £14.6m.  Ignore this scammer.
