Did you receive an email from a "MRS.LARISA SOSNITSKAYA, PERSONAL SECRETARY TO MR.BORIS MIKHAIL KHODORKOVSKY,THE ARRESTED CHAIRMAN/CEO OF YUKOS OIL" who has "FUNDS TO BE RE-PROFILLED" It's a variation of the usual dead, wealthy person with no will and no heirs and you-have-the-same-last-name - scam! Only this time it is the former head of Yukos Oil, who the present dictator of Russia (Vladimir Putin) has in jail (to make sure Putin would have no opposition). The idea that his former secretary is looking through Chamber of Commerce lists and finds YOU of all people to send the former oil baron's hidden money is simply preposterous.
In any case, MRS.LARISA SOSNITSKAYA" hopes to con you into sending money for various "fees" to free the fortune. If you would like a step by step explanation of how this type of "Advance Fee Fraud" works, click here!
