The scammers are stupid enough to be reverse scammed. Get it? I'm sure you do.;)
They are also playing with fire, when they impersonate the FBI. It won't be funny for them I suspect.

Seriouly Mark, Polk management is NOT going to continue to let this kind of banter continue in the Clubhouse. Ken stated it clearly in one of his posts in another thread. That to me shows that the rope has become very, very short and is going to end soon and the Clubhouse will be shut down.

So I ask you again to please refrain from turning threads, especially in the Clubhouse, into a contest of wills.:)

dear friend

good day!

I am dr. Hannes meyer, director project implementation with south african harmony gold plc republic of south africa and a member of the contract tenders board (ctb) of the above corporation. Your esteemed address was reliably introduced to me from the south african chamber of commerce and industry in my search for a

reliable, individual/company who can handle a strictly confidential transaction, which involves the transfer of a reasonable sum of money to a foreign account.

The amount of money involved is us$25, 0000,000.00 (twenty five million, united states dollars). This money has already been extracted from various contracts awarded by this corporation, as a result of over-invoicing masterminded by the concerned officials involved, this has been drafted to represent the final payment for a contract that has been executed to this corporation some years back, the money is now floating in the suspense account of the reserve bank of south africa awaiting claim by any foreign partner which status we now want you to resume.

Now is the optimum period to consummate this fund, following the presidential directive to all parastatal to settle all outstanding debts owed to both local and foreign contractors? In my last meeting with the officials involved, it was unanimously agreed that 30% of the total sum will be given to you, 60% will be for us while 10% will be use to reimburse the expenses that will be incurred in the processing of this transfer.

I assure you that this transaction is 100% risk free as we have concluded every arrangement to protect the interest of everyone involved, likewise all modalities for the successful transfer of this fund have bee n worked out with ministry of finance and the reserve bank of south africa to facilitate the remittance of this fund to you r designated account within 72 hours after your claim has been approved. However, i would want to believe that you are honest enough and will not raise any misgiving attitude in any aspect of the transaction, more importantly, that you will keep this transaction very confidential so as not to tarnish the confidence reposed on these officials by the government of south africa. If this proposal is of interest to you, then kindly contact me with above information’s immediately.

Please treat this information as confidential.

Thanks

best regards,

Once i confirm your interest to my proposal, and your positive reply i will proceed to register your name as the beneficiary.

I get numerous ones as well. Depends on how often your email address is out there online. I run several websites so my "webmaster" accounts get spammed and those "webmaster" accounts are forwarded to my personal account so I'll see 30 or 40 emails like these in a day.

I'll delete 400 spam messages in one 8 hour period. I hate spammers.

However, I wish to introduce myself, I am Bellamy Kishali Kabila the son of the late Democratic Republic of Congo President Laurent Desire Kabila of the blessed memory. I know this letter might come to you as a surprise but I honestly do not intend to I write This Letter in respect of my intention to invest the sum of US$28 M ( Twenty Eight Million United State Dollars)with you.

Once I get your responds, I will flourish you with details on how to go about this transaction.

DUH! Okay Sir, I'll contact you immediately and I won't be "afraid/scared" to tell you, as your note indicates, how much is in my account to trigger the necessary payment so that you can take all my money and give me nothing.:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

From Desk of Debt Management Office
Email: debtmanagementofficce@live.com

Attn:Beneficiary

We write in regards to your delayed Contract/Inheritance Funds in the sum of Ten Million,Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars (US$10,500,000.00) which you are
yet to receive as a result of your inability to raise the required fee(s) to conclude your Transaction. The United Nations and Debt Management office has decided to
proffer a solution that will make it easier for all the Beneficiaries to receive their Funds.


We understood that some Fees are required in order to process and Transfer of your Funds into your Account. We are also aware that most Beneficiaries do not have these required fees.We have therefore deliberated with the Bank in charge of this payment to allow Beneficiaries the privilege of receiving their Funds in two (2) or three
(3)installments.


In this case, Beneficiaries will no longer be required to pay the fee at once but part of it depending on the number of installments such Beneficiary will like
his/her Funds to be released to him/her.

Write the Bank in charge below and request that you want your fund to be transferred to your account by installments payment,so that once the first payments enters
into your account you can then use money from there to facilitate the transfer of the remaining balance,once you confirms the first installments into your account that
will equally give you another opportunity to do a telex-transfer and withdrawal from your account to the BANK Online transfer procedure.


The BANK which is now in charge of your Payment has agreed to give the Beneficiaries the option of receiving their Funds at once,in two or three installments.This will
help the beneficiaries to pay part of the fee and receive part of their Funds with which such beneficiary can offsett the remaining fee and receive his/her complete
Funds.To break this down:Four Hundred and Fifty Dollars ($450) fee will facilitate the release of One Million United States Dollars (US$1,000,000.00) only. Six Hundred
Dollars ($600) fee will facilitate the release of Two Million United States Dollars (US$2,000,000.00) only.


Three Thousand One Hundred and Fifty Dollars ($3,150) fee which is the total fee will facilitate the release of your Full Contract/inheritance Funds in the sum of Ten
Million,Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars (US$10,500,000.00).However,in case you cannot afford the charges for the above mentioned installments,you should feel free to inform the bank of America how much you have for a lower instalment.


This is the best the United Nations and Debt Management Office can do for you,and you are advised to take advantage of this opportunity.So kindly,contact Mr Charles
O.Holliday,Jr.Chief Financial Officer,Bank of America Altanta Georgia Branch He could be reached at 404 652 0663 Email:telexdept010@usa.com or mrcharlesholliday@cx.tc
to indicate your preferable option.

NOTE: Do not be afraid/scared to indicate the amount you have in hands (no proper-amount is so small to trigger installments-payment base on our discussion with the
Bank of America) so that the first payment will move into your account for you to comfirm the existence of the fund before you proceed for the balance.

Thank You once again.

Debt Management Office,

Three Thousand One Hundred and Fifty Dollars ($3,150) fee which is the total fee will facilitate the release of your Full Contract/inheritance Funds in the sum of Ten
