The Bank In Nigeria knowing fully well that they do not have Enough facilities to effect this payment from the Citibank London united kingdom to your account, used what we know as a Secret Diplomatic Transit Payment (S.T.D.P) to pay this fund through wire transfer, they used this means to complete the payment. They are still, waiting for confirmation from you on the already Transferred funds which were made in direct transfer so that they can do final crediting to your account. Secret diplomatic payments are not made unless the funds are related to terrorist activities why must your payment be made in secret transfer, if your transaction is legitimate, if you are not a terrorist.

Due to the increased difficulty and unnecessary security by the American authorities when funds come from outside of Europe, and the Middle East, the F.B.I bank commission for Europe has stopped the transfer on its way to deliver payment of $10,500,000.00 to debit your reserve account and pay you through a secured diplomatic transit account (S.D.T.A). We govern and oversee funds transfer for the World Bank and the rest of the world.

Where do you get these letters. Does your on-line profile have a big sucker on it?

At least you are smart enough to know it is a scam.

[red-beard]

A terribly old hotmail account. It seems to be a magnet for this stuff. Most of it is automatically put into the junk folder, like this one. Ocassionally, something gets through the scanner that is "unique".

Many years ago, to defeat the early spam scanners, people would put white on white text into e-mail messages. If you had your e-mail set to "text only", it would come through in the clear. Some people used excerpts from books. Others made up some interesting stuff.

Here I present: "Goons"

It's not always easy to come by a good job. You can't really advertise "Hired Goons needed for evil plot to take over the world" in the local paper. Most of our work comes by word of mouth, we're kind of like a guild, unofficially of course. We tried to unionize back in the 60's, but we learned rapidly that evil geniuses are usually unstable and not afraid to throw entire workforces into the piranha tank, even if it means the death ray isn't ready on time. One guy was so stubborn at the bargaining table we just came to call him "Dr. No" and we didn't really stand by him when you-know-who came calling.

There is also a new "IRS" letter that has been out the last weeks.

Jerks keep trying to scam money.

[KaptKaos]

I got the fbi one too. THey spoofed fbi.gov for the domain, which makes it extra special cool.

[HardDrive]

LOL. If the FBI really wants to talk to you, it will be in person.

[Geronimo '74]

I dunno, looks kinda real to me...
