Scam money Transfers: Email from Mike David

Scam Money Transfers
Example - Mike David,
"THE DIRECTOR IN CHARGE OF AUDITING AND ACCOUNTING SECTION OF (UNION BANK OF NIGERIA PLC)"

Did you receive an email from a "Mike David" who claims to be the "Director in charge of auditing and accounting section in a Union Bank of Nigeria Plc".  He claims that he wishes "to make a transaction that would be very beneficial to both of us".

Even if this were all true, you would be committing several felonies and would end up in prison.  In reality, it is all a scam.  Mike David (not his real name, obviously) hopes to con you into sending money for various "fees" to free the fortune. Below are four emails from the scammer: the initial email and 3 follow-ups after the potential victim replied. If you would like a step by step explanation of how this type of "Advance Fee Fraud" works, click here!

Notice (highlighted below) that the scammer sent out a bulk email to many, many people!

Third email from the scammer:

Dear Mr. Jones,

Urgent! Urgent!! Urgent!!!

Please treat this below mail very very important and urgent"

I have been expecting your response even before now to inform you that I have finanlly succeded in pulling out the fund $10Million United States Dollars from my bank treasury {coffer} without the knowledge of anyone. As
am writing to you now, the fund is laying low in a security firm here in my country waiting to be conveyed out to another country through Diplomatic Immunity as Consignment. Diplomatic measure, is the means which some of our Government Officials do use to transfer stolen funds abroad.

Note that, I don't want us to execute this transaction through banking means, this is not a bank to bank transaction for security reasons, if this fund finally get into your account, the bank president will want to know the origin of the fund and it may not be in our favour at the end. Again, it will require us paying huge tax, which is one of the reason why I took such risk to remove the fund from my bank treasury not minding my job and personality.

Dear Jones, know that this deal will require some financial input before things can really happen in our favour. My duty here is to perfect the necessary documentation for notary/ lawyer charges and delivery charges, you will only be responsible to pay for the clerance charges before the diplomats will be able to bring the consignment {fund} to you right at your door step. The reason why I have decided to give you 40% out from the total sum is because you will need to assist me both financially for this deal {transaction to succeed as I will be fronting you to be the real owner of the consignment {fund} to enable the security company believe that you are truely the owner of the deposited consignment {fund} in their custody.

The consignment {fund} has been registered and deposited as Personal Effect for Delivery, this means it is only you that I have reveal to that the exact contents inside the consignment is fund. You should be rest assured that all process of getting the consignment {fund} will be carried out legally, I have perfected all modalities even before contacting you, there will not be any problem now and in the future so do not entertain any kind of fear or worry ok.

Send your full names/contact address to me, to enable me obtain all the legal back-up documents on your behalf as the sole beneficiary {owner} of the deposited consignment {fund}. you can as well reach me on my private phone number +234-8035752597.

finally, note that i did not allow the security company know the real content inside the consignment {fund}, it is only you that i have reveal the truth to, that the consignment is carrying $10million united states dollars
for our own interest.

Call me immediately it is very very important we talk on phone.

I await your response and cooperation as regards to this information.

Regards,

Mr. Mike David

HE GAVE ME THE FULL ASSURANCE THAT THEY WILL SURELY CONVEY THE CONSIGNMENT TO YOU WITHOUT ANY STOPING AS CONVEYING OF PERSONAL EFFECT CARGO'S {CONSIGNMENT} IS NOT A PROBLEM TO THEM. THIS HAPPEN TO BE MY MAJOR REASON WHY I REGISTERED THE CONSIGNMENT {FUND} AS PERSONAL EFFECT FOR DELIVERY.

NOW CAREFULLY FILL AND SEND THIS BELOW MAIL TO THEM THROUGH THEIR E-MAIL ADDRESS GIVEN TO ME BY THE SAME OFFICER IN CHARGE OF CONSIGNMENT {CARGO} DEMANDING THAT YOU ARE THE ONE WHO GAVE ME YOUR CLIENT THE AUTHORITY TO DEPOSIT THE CONSIGNMENT {FUND} WITH THEM AND NOW YOU WANT THEM TO FINALLY CONVEY THE CONSIGNMENT TO YOU RIGHT AT YOUR DOOR STEP THERE IN SERBIA OK.
