MR. Debor Kobello
ADDRESS:
NO 24 ADENIYI JONES IKEJA
LAGOS-
NIGERIA,
Tel-234-1-2481116

Dear friend

Let me start by introducing myself properly to you.I am an
Accountant with the Bills and Exchange Department, Foreign
Remittance office of African Express Banking Corporation (AEBC).

I am writing you this letter to ask for your support and
co-operation to carry out this transaction.
We discovered an abandoned sum of US$25. 5Million (twentyfive
million five hundred thousand US Dollars) in an account that
belongs to one of our Foreign customer who died along side his
entire family in November 1997 in a plane crash.

Since this development, we have advertised for his next of kin
or any close relation to come forward to claim this money, but
nobody came to apply for the claim.

To this effect, I and two other officials in my office, have
decided to look for a trusted foreign partner who can stand in
as the next of kin to the deceased and claim this money. We need
a foreign partner to apply for the claim because of the fact
that the customer was a foreigner and we don't want this money
to go into the Bank's Treasury as unclaimed fund.

Every document to affect this process will emanate from my table
and I will perfect every document to be in accordance with the
banking law and guidelines, So you have nothing to worry about.
We have agreed that 20% of the money will be for you, 10% for
expenses incurred on both sides, 10% will be donated to the
charity organization while 60% will be for my colleagues and I.

If you are going to help me, indicate by replying this letter and
putting in your PRIVATE TELEPHONE AND FAX NUMBERS.
I await your immediate reply to enable us start this transaction
in earnest.

Once I receive your reply, I will send you the Text of Application for im=
mediate
of claim.
Please reply me with this e-mail address.
Thanks for your anticipated assistance.
Waiting for your reply

Yours faithfully,
MR. Debor Kobello

CONFIDENTIAL MUTUAL BUSINESS PROPOSAL.

FROM: MR. CHEUNG PUI
Hang Seng Bank Ltd
Sai Wan Ho Branch
171 Shaukiwan Road
Hong Kong.


Let me start by introducing myself. I am Mr. Cheung Pui
director of operations of the Hang Seng Bank Ltd, Sai Wan
Ho Branch. I have an obscured business suggestion for you.
Before the U.S and Iraqi war our client Major Fadi Basem
who was with the Iraqi forces and also business man made a
numbered fixed deposit for 18 calendar months, with a value
of Twenty Four millions Five Hundred Thousand United State
Dollars only in my branch. Upon maturity several notice was
sent to him, even during the war early last year. Again
after the war another notification was sent and still no
response came from him. We later find out that the Major
and his family had been killed during the war in a bomb
blast that hit their home.

After further investigation it was also discovered that
Major Fadi Basem did not declare any next of kin in his
official papers including the paper work of his bank
deposit. And he also confided in me the last time he was at
my office that no one except me knew of his deposit in my
bank. So, Twenty Four millions Five Hundred Thousand United
State Dollars is still lying in my bank and no one will
ever come forward to claim it. What bothers me most is that
according to the laws of my country at the expiration 4
years the funds will revert to the ownership of the Hong
Kong Government if nobody applies to claim the funds.
Against this backdrop, my suggestion to you is that I will
like you as a foreigner to stand as the next of kin to
Major Fadi Basem so that you will be able to receive his
funds.

WHAT IS TO BE DONE:

I want you to know that I have had everything planned out
so that we shall come out successful. I have contacted an
attorney that will prepare the necessary document that will
back you up as the next of kin to Major Fadi Basem, all
that is required from you at this stage is for you to
provide me with your Full Names and Address so that the
attorney can commence his job. After you have been made the
next of kin, the attorney will also fill in for claims on
your behalf and secure the necessary approval and letter of
probate in your favor for the move of the funds to an
account that will be provided by you.

There is no risk involved at all in the matter as we are
going adopt a legalized method and the attorney will
prepare all the necessary documents. Please endeavor to
observe utmost discretion in all matters concerning this
issue. Once the funds have been transferred to your
nominated bank account we shall share in the ratio of 70%
for me, 30% for you. Should you be interested please send
me your full names and current residential address and
finally after that i shall provide you with more details of
this operation. I will prefer that you reach me via this
email (cheung_p100@yahoo.com.hk) or by Tel/Fax Number:
+852-301-58197 for now, before I can provide a confidential
telephone number for security purpose.

Your earliest response to this letter will be appreciated.

Kind Regards,
Mr. Cheung pui.

Gotta luv 'em :(

Hey...wait a minute....JUST WAIT ONE STINKIN' MINUTE....!!!

Quote:
20% of the money will be for you, 10% for expenses incurred on both sides, 10% will be donated to the charity organization while 60% will be for my colleagues and I.

That's entirely unfair!! I will not absolutely budge unless I get 50% of the money, 10% for expenses, 40% for your colleagues and yourself, and of course, screw charity.

Sincerely,

[Egaladeist]

Now now ZT3000...you know...charity begins at home ! :D

Email:johansencurt@echina.com
Attn: The President

Dear Sir
BUSINESS PROPOSAL / CONFIDENTIAL
May I crave your indulgence to open this business discussion with you by an informal letter of this sort? It is pertinent that a business of this Magnitude should have commenced properly with a formal meeting between You and us to enable both parties know ourselves, have a fore knowledge of the nature of the business, discuss and acquaint ourselves with the responsibilities and functions of both parties and appropriate shares accordingly. But as a result of the urgency of this operation I have decided to contact you by fax to hear from you first before planning on the next line of action.
My Name is Johannsen Curt, I a vault Manager with a security company here in Germany. This transaction if handled with outmost care and secrecy will be successfully concluded within 10 days. In the year 2003 before the beginning of the American led Coalition war in Iraq, a deposit of a consignment was made here in our company by the late son of the former president of Iraq Saddam Hussein Mr. Qusai Hussein who was recently killed by the American Soldiers in Iraq.
This deposit was made by Ouasai Hussein personally and no one in my office at this moment knows that this consignment belongs to him only me and the one other Computer Lodgment officer in our company. We have tried to investigate the content of this box and found out that the consignment contains money and in cash, worth US$35,000.000.00 (thirty Five Million Dollars), No one else in our office knows about the content and the owner of this consignment as this was declared as family valuables.
We have therefore decided to find a way to take away this consignment from our office and move the money out. Hence we are looking for a trust worthy person internationally who will come forward to claim this consignment.
I have made necessary arrangements for the change of ownership of this
consignment to anybody name who is willing to work with us within 3
working days of receipt of the information, we will need from you, we will do the change of ownership, so that no one in our office will ever know what is going on and move the consignment away from here to any of our company agents outside Germany to any other part of Europe where it will be easy to claim the items. Open a Bank account and distribute the cash.
If this proposal meets your interest please get back to me immediately by on my alternative email (johansencurt@echina.com) giving me your telephone numbers to enable me give to you further details on how we have planned to carry this operation smoothly. Your urgent response waited

Yours faithfully

Mr. Johansen Curt.

Now it says the late son of the former president of Iraq Saddam Hussein Mr. Qusai Hussein who was recently killed by the American Soldiers in Iraq.
And that was almost 18 months ago now ...........

Also, in the header, I can't find any identifying details of MY address ?

Unless, of course, you can see different :)
Which makes me think it's been sent out BCC [cheapskate / non-techy method of mass mailing :)]

Anyway, it's one more for the pot.

[Egaladeist]

Hi foxyloxley,

Some day someone's gonna have to explain this to me or write a tutorial on it...because I haven't got a clue how you decipher this...

[foxyloxley]

Hi Eg :
that lot are in the header of your EMails.
In OE, RClick the mail in the In-Box, select properties, details, message source.
A window will open with all this ID on it.

Where the xxxx.xxxx@xxx.xxx are, is where MY EMail address was. changed for security reasons [mine :D]
The [200.53.64.61 as an example] numbers are the various IP addresses that the mail came from.

You can use various tools to find out quite a lot about who sent it, where they sent it from.

I'd advise reading tuts / books on TCP/IP to get a handle on it.
quick and dirty :
paste the numbers into google,
some actually work.


Plus you can see that they say Nigeria, BUT EMail is from mx = Mexico.

[Egaladeist]

Hi foxyloxley,

Thanks! :D

I downloaded a TCP/IP tool awhile back..." TCPVeiw "...but I never uploaded it because I'm not sure what it does or if I needed it...I've got a few of those things just laying around. :rolleyes:


Eg ;)

[spheraice]

fake......the ips don't match up.....

[foxyloxley]

One more, but with a twist ...............

He says Zimbabwe, but all links are to Italy ?

Dearest Valued Friend,

Naturally, this letter will come to you as a surprise since we have not
met,permit me however It is with deep sense of honour and respect that I
humbly make this appeal to you with the understanding that any fact/s or
opinion/s expressed in this letter are given in confidence and solely for your personal information and use. .If it does not interest you ,discard the mail but if it makes sense to you, I open my arms wide to do business with you

Details OF THE BUSINESS PROPOSAL

I am MR.Marcus Milton,a Zimbabwean Farmer. I am contacting you as the need for me to have a foreign partner in your country has become necessary due to my plans to relocate and establish a private company in that region, as the present political instability in the country (Zimbabwe), does not encourage financial investment as the environment is not conducive for investment and most of all security is not guaranteed,just as reported by the International media. This problem started when the Zimbabwean government under the leadership of President Robert Mugabe announced a decree on May 31st 2001 to seize more than 6000 white-owned farms. So far, more than 5,400 white owned farms have been invaded, properties confiscated and farm lands seized. During these
periods, as reported by the international media and C.N.N, more than 500 white farmers were killed, the government didn't stop at this, as just recently the government have asked all white-farmers to give up
their farms to black farmers or risk going to prison.

Having lived in this country (Zimbabwe) for more than 35 years, I have no
other country to go to, nor can I trace any of my distant relatives.
Therefore, I decided to contact you for your assistance so that I can
establish a company in your country and relocate there. Also, I must
re-iterate the importance of having a citizen of your country to front as
the owner of the enterprise, due to the fact that I will be a foreigner in your country.

I have deposited in a BANK all the funds realised from the
sales of my farmland and other farming equipment which amounted to
USD8.5,000,000.00 (Eight million five hundred thousand United States Dollars) which I intend to start a new life with and do business with you as soon as I relocate.

For now, I stay in Lagos because Zimbabwe is highly unsafe for me and my
family. You can mail your immediate response to me. Upon your immediate
response with the good intentions to help, I will immediately instruct the BANK to make swift online wire transfer of the funds to any of your nominated BANK account.I will arrange for and send to you all the documentation that will empower your good self in finalizing the transaction.I;e Power of Attorney, certificate of deposit,insurance certificate and a contract agreement by will be duely signed by both parties.Let me use this opportunity to also inform you that this transaction is 100% risk free and should also be handled in the most confidential manner.

I have options to offer you, first you can choose to have certain percentage of the money for your assistance, or you can go into partnership for a proper profitable investment of the money in your country. Which ever option you choose, feel free to notify me. If for some reasons you do not prefer a partnership, I am willing to give you 25% of the money while the remaining 75% that is meant for me, will be for the investment in your country. So based on the above, it is important you communicate with me. On the event that you cannot assist me to do the business, I beg you to still keep my contact and existence of my fund a secret.I also want to make available from my share of the funds the sum of one million dollar (USD 1,000,000.00) to the TSUNAMI
VICTIMS as my kind heart felt for the survivals.

I also require you make available to me your confidential telephone and fax numbers to enable me comminicate with you easily.

Sincere Regards,

Marcus Milton.

Hi foxyloxley,

I never get to see my junk mail so I've never got one of those yet that I know of...my ISP has a virus and junk mail protection service...so all that stuff goes directly into a spamaccount that I have to go to and access with a password....I'm suppose to go there to decide which to forward to my account or delete...or it's automatically deleted after 14 days I think.

how do you manage to get so many of these things? :D

Eg ;)

[foxyloxley]

how do you manage to get so many of these things

Just lucky I guess :D

Mind you, IRL my name is Sod Murphy [ as in the 'laws'] :jester:

[foxyloxley]

And AGAIN :

Now, I am not sure why the text is interspersed with 'code' ?
maybe the Netscape Webmailer ?

Without the 'code' :
From : MRS KHOBE VIVIAN
DIRECT ALL MAIL REPLY TO : mrsviviankhobe@ny.com
Attention: C.E.O,
This business proposal to you is strictly confidential, with due
respect .Sorry at this
perceived confusion or stress you may have receiving this letter from
me, Since we have not known ourselves or met previously. Despite that, I
am constrained to write you this letter because of the urgency of it.
I am Mrs. Vivian Khobe, the wife of late Gen. Maxwell Khobe former
ECOMOG [West African peacekeeping force] commander who died in the Sierra
Leone civil
disturbance [War]. My three daughters and I are trapped in obnoxious
custom traditional rites. We have suffered maltreatment and untold
hardship in the hands of my late husbands family, simple because I did not
bear a male child for my late husband By tradition, all that my husband
had, [wealth] belongs to his brothers/family and myself is to be re-married
by his immediate younger brother. They have taken all that I suffered
with my husband to acquire including treasure, houses and his bank
accounts closed by them.
I wanted to escape to the United State of America [USA} with my
children on exile, but again they conspired and stole my international
passport and other traveling documents to further frustrate me. Thank God, two
weeks ago, I received Key Text Code [KTC} from SECURITIES COMPANY, that
my husband deposited U.S $15.7 Million [Fifteen Million Seven Hundred
Thousand United States Dollars] cash with this company.
It has therefore, become very necessary and urgent to contact some one,
a foreigner like you to help me receive/secure these funds overseas and
to help invest it on our behalf as well, while we find a way of getting
out to meet with you in your country.
These funds are kept on a CODE with the Securities Company to avoid
detection, seizure or diversion. I have had several telephone discussions
with the Assistant Director of the Securities Company, who has express
willingness to help me on meeting the company’s
demand. This is why I have contacted you to help save my children and I,
receive these funds on our behalf. But, you would need to give me
sufficient assurance that if you help me, you would not divert the funds. My
children and I have resolved to give you 20% of the total sum. This is
all my children and I have got to live on. Please, I have reposed my
confidence in you and hope you will not disappoint me.
I will forward you the contact of Mr. Gilbert Scott for you to contact
him and ask him the possibility of receiving this fund on our behalf as
the sole beneficiary look forward to your urgent response.
Best Personal Regards.
Mrs Vivian Khobe.

I'm not even worth a NEW one :D

[Egaladeist]

Hi foxyloxley,

Now I wonder...what if...some less than in-the-know person sees one of these and decides " Hey, this would be a good way to do this " and sends out a real letter requesting help to divert $15,000,000...no one would take it seriously :D

I wonder if there are any real requests out there that were made by people who thought....hummmmmmm...this might work ? :D

Eg ;)

[karmine]

ive seen this same email like 5 months ago on this site i believe, and maybe even in my email lol. what a joke

[foxyloxley]

got a dodgy bank mail, asking me to re-enter my details for 'security' reasons ........
hover the cursor over the mail, and the link info appears in the bottom L/H side of screen, and it was NOT Lloyds TSB [UK bank] suprise suprise.
It was instead the following URL :

http://202.51.213.221/rpm/

clicking it took me through to a [IMHO] fairly crappy layout, where they were asking for details / passwords / secret information :eek:

I've forwarded the mail to Lloyds TSB, and am waiting for a reply.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ODD !!!!!
I've tried to copy the form, but when I paste, it just give me the following ????

Winzip It'll be better Las Vegas and make them better? The X-Men

Well I can see where the X-Men quote comes from ............
But as for the rest of the gibberish ?

Anyone got any ideas ?

Oh YES ........ I'm RICH ...............................

leave it to Google to prove I'm still a pauper :) (http://www.google.co.uk/search?sourceid=navclient&ie=UTF-8&rls=GGLD,GGLD:2005-11,GGLD:en&q=Lotto+London+International+Lottery+Program)


I've been getting quite a few recently.
It must be the heat :)

this is a twist on the 'usual' please be next of kin shite ....................

[Egaladeist]

Hi foxyloxley,

What is the ultimate goal of these scams...to get credit card and banking information...get you to ante up some cash in order to get the ' cough ' pay-off...identity theft...?

Eg ;)

[foxyloxley]

That last will, eventually, ask for $650 admin charges ...................

if they only get one in a 1000, and send out 000's of 000's of mails = 00's of punters kicking out 00's of $650 ..........


It SOON adds up.

Others get your bank details and strip it bare .....................

[Egaladeist]

Hi foxyloxley,

That's what I thought but I wasn't sure...and I think you're the first person that I've read who has clarified that...thanks!

Eg ;)

You must spread your AntiPoints around before giving it to foxyloxley again.
can someone do the honors for me :D

[9down_1togo]

Not to mention the new threat of holding your own files for ransom. How would you like someone to encypt important files on your own computer and then demand money for the decryption key....well, it's now happening. Threatening DDoS on a business website is now the "old" news, the "new" news is your computer and it's files. More info ca be seen on my website:

[foxyloxley]

And NOW one with a twist ............

And WHERE do all those 127.0.0.1's fit in ????

I'm 'averaging' 5 a week at present :eek:
and they are all remarkably alike, so it makes a change to read that noone died in the making of this mail :)

[foxyloxley]

Just got this ................

are they targeting Muslims specifically with it ?
But what Castro would say if he thought there was a muslim in his atheist state God only knows :)

Assalamualaikum,
In the name of Allah the Beneficent; the Merciful,the Master of the day of Judgments, I greet you in the Name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful To whom All the Praise (HQ; 31:26; 17:111); and the most Beautiful Names(HQ: 7:180; 17:110; 20:8; 59:24) belongs. I am Mr Hakim Khalid originally from Cuba but with an Egyptian nationality.On 10th February 2004,i am my family(my wife and two
kids) boarded an Iranian plane which burst into flames as we flew into Sharjah airport from the Iranian island of Kish.I lost my family and it was only three of us that survived and we were treated at al-Qasimi hospital in Sharjah.I laid helpless there in the hospital because my condition was so critical and after series of operation i had to be taken back to my home land cuba, paralysed:

http://www.airdisaster.com/photos/ep-lca/8.shtml

Owing to my failing health I am taking this step to let you know that I want to leave in your care the sum of $18.6Million United States Dollars for a charitable organisation or an in care of an individual to propagate Islam.I have had course to make donations to organisations here through my relatives and friends before now who abscunded with the funds and used for thier own selfish interest because nobody to help me follow them up.I will be leaving this mantle in the care of my lawyer who
you
will work with.I know this mail will definetely come to you suprisely but i want you to remember that: Allah Tests His Subjects in many different ways. This He Says in the Holy Quran in many Verses.To cite a few:
(HQ: And thus Do We Try some of them by others so that they say: Are these they upon whom Allah Has conferred Benefit from among us? Does not Allah best know the grateful? 6:53) 1.Allah won't ask about your social status, but will ask what kind of class you displayed. 2.Allah won't ask how many material possessions you had, but will ask if they dictated your life. 3.Allah won't ask how many promotions you received, but will ask how you promoted others. 4.Allah won't ask what you did to protect your rights, but will ask what you did to protect the rights of others. 5.Allah won't ask in what neighbourhood you lived, but will ask how you treated your neighbors. 6.Allah won't ask about the color of your skin, but will ask about the content of your character. 7.Allah won't ask how many times your deeds matched your words, but will ask how many times they didn't. Hoping to hear from you through this email(hakimkhalid707@excite.com) account your interest to help me to propagate Islam.If you are interested or not,one thing i beg of you is please include me in your
prayers. All
praise is due to Allah Who brought everything into existence and May the
peace
and blessing of Allah be upon our noble Prophet Mohammad (peace be upon
him) and His virtuous adorers till the day of Judgments.What else should i
say
other that we should meet Allah with a clean mind and clear conscience.May Allah bless you as you respond to my plea. Ma-Salam, Hakim Khalid.

I am the head of the account department of a Private Bank in the United Kingdom and I would like to intimate you with certain facts that I believe would be of interest to you.

This involves a client who had an investment placed under our bank's management years ago, the circumstances surrounding the investment made by this client who died interstate, with no known nominated successor in title over this investment made with the Private Banking Branch of my bank has made it very difficult to locate anyone who is directly related to the deceased.

With the very strong feeling that no one will ever come forward to
claim the funds and the investigation coming to a close after several months, the need for an assistance becomes crucial, as a next of kin to the depositor is earnestly being searched for, I have already developed a foolproof, legal and totally risk free means through which the fund can be released to your nominated bank account within a very short time after due documentation and authentication process.

The strategy is to use my position and influence as the Head of the branch and Personal Account officer of the deceased to present you as a next of Kin and beneficiary of the deposit. I want to assure you that I have concluded all local modalities for the successful completion of this within 10 banking days of your agreement to proceed with me as the required assistance is perfected to be 100% risk free. Please reply me to enable us proceed.

I expect your urgent response and if in the affirmative, I shall advice you on what we need to do.

Best regards,

Frank Jones.

[foxyloxley]

I started this thread to post, what I thought would be, a couple of mails that I recieved, to show others what to watch for.................

NOW it's three pages long and I don't post all of 'em ;)

Then THIS arrived - it appears to be aimed at those of us [ME :D] who don't really like people, and it's a heart warming tale, which is, of course, the achilles heel, it's aimed at those who don't give a rats ass ....... Yet it's trying to make you feel sorry for him .............

Anyhow : 'enjoy'

DEAR FRIEND

MY NAME IS GREG WILLIAMS AND I WAS BORN 61 YEARS AGO. I WAS NOT BORN
WITH THE PROVERBIAL SILVER SPOON.AND YEARS OF POVERTY AND HUNGER
PROVIDED,ME A PLATFORM TO STRIVE TO SUCCEED IN LIFE THIS I MUST
CONFESS I DID,ALL THE WAY TO THE TOP.IN DOING SO I PROMISED MY SELF
TO NEVER SHOW LOVE OR MERCY TO ANYONE,AND THIS I DID WITH HATE IN MY
HEART AND NO LOVE.

OVER THE YEARS,I MADE ENOUGH MONEY TO BUY ME A COUNTRY OF MY CHOICE,I
NEVER MARRIED,BUT HAD CHIDREN, 'TWO BOYS' WHOM I JUST HAD TO TOLERATE
FOR I WAS TOLD THEY HAD MY BLOOD FLOWING IN THEIR VEINS.I CAN NOT
REMEMBER EVER FEELING LOVE FOR THEM.AND THIS ATTTUDE I ALSO SHOWED TO
ANY ONE FOR I BELIEVED THAT THEY JUST WANT TO BE WITH ME FOR THE
MONEY.AND I ALWAYS ASKED MY SELF WHERE THEY WERE WHEN I WAS HUNGRY
AND CRYING AS A CHILD.I SWORE NEVER TO SHOW LOVE TO ANY ONE.

ONE YEAR AGO I WAS DIAGNOSED WITH CANCER AND WITH ALL MY WEALTH AND
POWER,NOTHING AND NO ONE CAN SAVE ME.WHEN I WAS TOLD OF MY ILLNESS,A
SUDDEN CALM TOOK OVER ME AND I FOUND MYSELF FULL OF TEARS AND REGRET
FOR MY LIFE FLASHED BEFORE ME,LIVING ME PERPLEXED.

THERE AND THEN I RESOLVED TO MAKE AMENDS FOR ALL THE PAIN I CAUSED
EVERYONE DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY. SO I DECIDED TO SET UP A TRUST FUND
FOR THE NEEDY.AND I MADE MY SONS THE SIGNATORY TO THE ACCOUNT,LEAVING
THEM WITH THE RESPONSIBILTY OF DISBURSING FUNDS TO ORGANISATIONS OF
MY CHOICE.NOW I HAVE RELIABLE INFORMATION THAT MY WISH HAS NOT BEEN
CARRIED OUT AS I INSTRUCTED.FOR MY OWN FLESH AND BLOOD,HAVE CONSPIRED
TO STEAL WHAT I ASKED TO GIVE TO THE NEEDY.

NOW I HAVE DECIDED THAT I WILL GET SOMEONE THAT CAN HELP ME DISBURSE
THE FUNDS WORTH $30 MILLION AMERICAN D OLLARS IN A TRUNK BOX IN A
SECURITY COMPANY IN EUROPE.THIS FUNDS WILL BE GIVEN TO CHARITABLE
ORGANISATIONS OF MY CHOICE .

I WANT TO STATE HERE THAT THIS PERSON WILL RECEIVE A 30% OF
$30MILLION FROM ME .AS MY ILLNESS GRADUALLY EATS DEEP IN ME,I NEED
SOMEONE THAT WILL BE MY EYES.ALL ARRANGEMENTS WILL BE MADE WHEN YOU
GET IN TOUCH WITH ME,YOU WILL RECEIVE INSTUCTIONS ON WHAT TO DO.THIS
IS A CRY FOR HELP AND I NEED A HAND TO EASE THE PAIN.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME.PLEASE IF YOUR INTERESTED
PLEASE YOU CAN CONTACT ME PERSONALLY AT
(gregwilliams75@hotmail.com)

Your Sincerly
Greg Williams

As you can see it's a Russian tag [.ru]
Makes a change :D

And again, it was 'from' and 'to' him
So was I on BCC?
Is there any method behind the to and from thing?

[HTRegz]

Hey Hey,

I like how this thread is coming along, everyone contributing basically everyone that they receive. A business venture that I'm a part of had it's address posted on quite a few google groups and as a result, we receive a lot of scams.... Usually they're the standard so I don't post them. This one however was rather interesting. Wasn't a lump some of money but a "business" venture

Message Body
Dear Sir/Madam,

I represent GLOBAL IMPORT/EXPORT COMPANY based in the UK. My company exports cocoa and other goods/services for world trade. What we really require is someone who can represent this company in Europe and America We have been having problems with clients in these regions because they are politely refusing to pay for shipments on one excuse or the other so we need a representative that can assist us in clearing our money in their respective countries.

Most of our customers pay out in cheques and we do not have an account in your country that will clear this money.


It is upon this note that we seek your assistance as our representative in your country.


Be informed that as our representative, you will receive 10% of whatever amount you clear for the company and the balance will be paid into an account we will avail to you. The second thing required of you would be for you to establish a relationship on behalf of our company with other cocoa industries in your country so that we can have new ideas and directions.

This job is rather easy and does not require a lot of expertise.

If you are interested in this business offer, please email me on this email address below:
(exportimport100@walla.com)



Very Respectfully,

Mr.Stephen Timothy
Managing Director,
GLOBAL Import/Export co.
Goods for Import/Export
Freight Fwdg. Svcs.


It's a bit of a twist so I thought you might enjoy it... This is fresh, so I'm going to follow it up a bit... if it get's interesting I'll start a dedicated thread on the subject.

Peace,
HT

Dear Friend,
I hope this meets you in good health. My name is
Barrister Jones Obi.legal practitioner and Attorney to late Mr. John Adam who died in the plane crash of Yak-40 jetliner on March 9, 2000. You may follow the Link below to read about the Plane Crash my client lost his life:

http://www.amarillonet.com/stories/031500/usn_LA0703.001.shtml, http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/world/europe/672849.stm

My late client was an influential wealthy businessman, a Contractor in my Country and a Russian big time Oil dealer and the Principal owner of Oil Alliance Company and he left behind a deposit of Twelve Million, Two Hundred Thousand United States Dollar ($12,200,000.00USD) in his domiciliary bank account in a commercial bank here in Nigeria Which is one of the main reasons it has been very important to locate his next of kin.

After the death of my client his bankers contacted me, as his Attorney to provide his next of kin who should inherit his fortune. The board of directors of his bank adopted a resolution and I was mandated to provide his next of kin for the payment of this money or forfeit the money to the bank as an abandoned Estate.

The bankers had planned to invoke a clause in the property Act, to confiscate the funds after the expiration of a period given to me.

It was while i was searching for his family records on the internet that i came across your contact.I have searched through almost all the genealogy site that you can think of both in the Russia,USA and all the possible places I thought my clients would have possibly had a family member. Despairing and at the point of desperation.

I cameacross your name, while trying to locate documentation's regarding possible relatives of my client in his country of origin. Convinced that you may be able to act in locus for my late client as his next of kin.

I therefore, decided to contact you with these facts before me because of the status quo.By virtue of my brief and my closeness to the deceased,I am very much aware of my client's financial standing and the bank account he operates here in my country.

I have reasoned very professionally and I feel it will be legally proper to present you as the next of kin of my deceased client and the sole beneficiary of his estate, so that you are be paid the funds left in his bank account, hence I contacted you. I seek your consent to present you as the Next of Kin; the bank needs only the facts as presented legally.

The rest is between you and I and with my guide we can have the money paid into your account, once this is done we shall both share the funds. 50% to me and 40% to you, while 10% should be for Taxes as your Government may require, I shall assemble all the necessary Legal Documents that will be used to back up our claim.

All I require is your honest cooperation to enable us see this deal through I guarantee that this will be executed under a legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any Breach of law.

Please get in touch with me through this my pravit email address. barristerjones@tlen.pl

Best Regards,
(esq)

Hey Hey,


Just to let everyone know (and I've already discussed this with foxyloxley in PM)... I've renamed this thread to something a little more appropriate and made it a sticky. I think this is a great way to keep a database of scams in case anyone ever wants to do any research against them.... This way it's a single thread as well instead of cluttering the forum.

Peace,
HT

Of course, I don't bank at Armed Forces Bank. If you mouse over www[dot]afbank[dot]com you will be taken to a site located at sebiro[dot]mtm[dot]ks[dot]edu[dot]tw/[dot]afbank. This resolves to a junior high school in taiwan. I don't think I want to give my account info to some junior high kid in taiwan. I have not had time to analyze this more to find out exactly what it does when it gets to this site. I'll post again after that.

Not really readable, is it? :) You might miss the link to http://www.hubertuswochen.de/.www.paypal.com/login-run/index.html in it. Almost valid. All other links are to PayPal. Still, the weird words on the bottom of this email made me very suspicious.
Also suspicious is the email account to which it was sent. 101470.2173@compuserve.com isn't me... Don't know who it is anyway.

But okay, I've opened FireFox, went to Paypal.com (typed the URL myself instead of clicking the link) and checked my account. Still € 0.00. :( Well, I had to check anyways.
Then checking the website of the scammer. Or actually, using http://www.denic.de/de/whois/data.jsp to collect information about the domain owner.
Name: Helge Siems,
Street: Achtert Holt 3
ZIP+City: 23747 Gruberhagen
Country: DE

And oh, the site is down already. Or just still down. It is only three days old...

Another link to http://194.27.5.2/~ahmeterd/images/.webscr/ is also pretty suspicious...

Funny though. If you look at the email as HTML, it does look pretty real. But I saw the plaintext and immediately became suspicious...

I've reported this email to PayPal through their system and to http://www.spamcop.net just to get more pressure on this fraud. But it's a new scam so this is just a warning for all.

It's too bad the sight of a Paypal email in your inbox wasn't a cause for suspicion!

But it's a new scam so this is just a warning for all.

That's nothing new, it's a standard phish... :p

Well, I happen to have a PayPal account. It could have fooled me. It didn't because I saw it as plaintext first and noticed the weird layout of the message.
And as PayPal suggested, I didn't click on the link. I typed the paypal URL myself.

True, plenty of PayPal scams out there. But the site that it linked to is new.

Oh my God, I got scammed for nearly a month and still have no clue. I applied for this job as a cashier at Snejnaya Skazka Company in yahoo hot jobs. Then got an email saying that I was hired and need to fill out things such as address, phone # ....... I thought I was from yahoo jobs, so I didn't take any precaution. My duty was to take payments from US customers, cash it then transfer through Western Union to to company headquarter in Russia, my salary is 8% of the payment amount. First check I got is from QChex, but the bank wouldn't let me cash it because the fund was not there, so she told me to shred that check. Next check I got is a personal check, take it to the bank and cash it then transfer the rest to Russia. A couple days later (which is today) when I look at my account info, the same amount of the check I cash the other day was withdrawl from my account. I thought I was a bank error, so I called but they told me they can't tell until tomorrow. So I did some research and got to this forum, I feel so stupid, got scam for nearly $1300, and to think I got a decent job to help my parents :(

[xTristan102x]

But one thing I don't understand, how could the bank let me cash the personal check at the point, then debit from my account. Usually the check everything before giving the cash.
This is the website that she give me about the company, but all in Russian, can't read :( http://www.sskazka.ru who lives in Russia, please tell me what it says and this number (095) 741-44-11 even exist hic hic

&lt;/html&gt;






I only got to finish step one in the mail, after logging in with a password I guessed and entered all personal information, all I got was "thank you" and nothing more. I tried to go to paypal.com again and log in, but then it didn't work anymore - it seems like it only works from (WARNING - SCAM SITE) http://81.215.209.25/verify/login.htm

Could all of you try logging in on that server with many different non-existing email addresses and passwords and see if some of them don't work? Preferably do this a couple of hundred times, just to be sure.

Comments FROM THE DESK OF: RAY ARINZECHUKWU TEL: 234- 803- 516 2613 EMAIL: arinzechukwu_ray@yahoo.com Dear Friend, (PRIVATE/CONFIDENTIAL). I am RAY ARINZECHUKWU the New Director in charge of Auditing section STANDARD TRUST BANK. Forgive my indignation if this message comes to you as a surprise. AS IT MAY INTEREST YOU TO KNOW, I GOT YOUR IMPRESSIVE INFORMATION THROUGH THE NET WORK ONLINE DURING MY BROWSING. I have decided to contact you on a project that will be very beneficial to both of us. During our auditing in this Bank, I came across some amount of money belonging to a deceased foreigner Mr.Sheu Yuan-dong who died with his wife and their only daughter on February 16th, 1998 in a plane crash. The fund has been dormant in his account with this Bank without any claim of the fund in our custody from his relation before my discovery to this development. He was the Governor of Taiwan Central (Reserve) Bank. The said amount is U.S $15,500,000(FIFTEEN MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND UNITED STATES DOLLARS). I want you to know that I never masterminded the death of the deceased fellow. Their death occurred Naturally as a result of the plan crash as my investigation shows because it was also recorded by the CNN .In fact i discovered all this during my investigation about the account . Please view thiswebsite: FOR YOUR INFORMATION BEEN YOU NOT A TAIWANESE WILL NOT POSE ANY PROBLEM FOR THE SUCCESSFUL TRANSFER ON THIS FUND INTO YOUR ACCOUNT. All the whole arrangement to put claim over this fund as the bona fide beneficiary to the fund has been put in place and directives will be relayed to you as soon as you indicate your interest and willingness to assist me and also benefit your self to this great business opportunity. In this country as a civil servant (A Banker), we are not allowed to operate a foreign account. This is the actual reason why it will require a second party or fellow who will forward claims as the next of kin or beneficiary to the Bank and also present a foreign account where he will need the money to be-transferred into on his request. Our Banking law stipulates that if such money remained unclaimed after ten years, the money will be transferred into the Bank treasury as unclaimed fund. The request of foreigner as the beneficiary in this business is occasioned by the fact that the customer was a foreigner and a Nigerian cannot stand as next of kin or beneficiary because he was running the account as an offshore secret non-resident bank account because it seems that he is also a secret gold dealer. I don?t want this money to go into the Bank treasury as unclaimed Bill. Be assured this transaction is 100% risk free. On conclusion of this Project, you will be entitled to 40% of the total sum as gratification including your expenses while 60% will be for me. Please you have been advised to keep "top secret" as I am still in service and intend to retire from service after I conclude this deal with you. I will fly down to your country for the subsequent sharing of the fund according to percentages previously indicated and further investment will be discussed. On your acceptance to be my partner, please email for a brief discussion before we proceed. Please keep this proposal secret, even if you don?t want to assist me. I look forward to receive your urgent reply. BEST REGARDS, RAY ARINZECHUKWU TEL: 234-80-351-62613

This one is interesting, It is an example of an email that scammers use to entice people to help withdraw the money that they have collected from there targets then wire transfer the funds to the scammer or another country in which the funds will make it to the scammer.

Hello

Subject: Part Time Worker (PT)

My name is Edward Smith and I am an artist. Resident in the UK, with my
two
kids, four cats, one dog and the love of my life. It is definitely a
full
house. I have been doing artwork since I was a small child. That gives
me
about 23 years of experience. I majored in art in high school and took
a few
college art courses. Most of my work is done in either pencil or
airbrush
mixed with color pencils.

I have recently added designing and creating artwork on the computer. I
have
been selling my art for the last 3 years and have had my work featured
on
trading cards, prints and in magazines. I have sold in galleries and to
private collectors from all around the world. I am always facing
serious
difficulties when it comes to selling my art works to Americans; they
are
always from all around the world. I am always facing serious
difficulties
when it comes to selling my art works to Americans; they are always
offering
to pay with a US POSTAL MONEY which is difficult for me to cash here in
UNITED KINGDOM.


I am looking for a representative in the states who will be working for
me
as a part-time worker and I will be willing to pay %10 for every
transaction, which wouldn’t affect your present state of work, someone
who
would help me receive payments from my customers in the states. I mean
someone that is responsible and reliable, because the cost of coming to
the
state and getting payments is very expensive, I am working on setting
up a
branch in the United States, and so for now I need a representative in
the
United States who will be handling the payment aspect. Please contact

Dearest,

On behalf of the trustees and executor of the estate of Late Sir. Dennis Thatcher, I wish to notify you that late Sir. Dennis Thatcher, made you a beneficiary to his Will. He left the sum of Nine hundred and fifty thousand Pounds Sterling (950,000.00 BPS) to you in the codicil and last testament to his Will. This may sound strange and unbelievable to you, but it is real and true.

Being a widely traveled man, he must have been in contact with you in the past or simply you were nominated to him by one of his numerous friends abroad that wished you good. Sir. Dennis Thatcher passed away peacefully in the Lister Hospital London, after a short illness at the age of 88 years. He was businessman and husband to Margaret Thatcher, the former British Prime Minister. He was Born May 10th 1915; died June 26th 2003, and his Will is now ready for execution.

Sir. Dennis Thatcher, until his death was a very dedicated Christian who loved to give out. His great philanthropy earned him numerous awards during his lifetime. In a tribute to him at a News Conference with Russian President Vladimir Putin, British Prime Minister Mr. Tony Blair said:

"Sir Dennis was a kind and generous-hearted man, a real gentleman who had many friends here and abroad. According to him this money is to support your activities and to help the poor and the needy in your country.

Please If I reach you as I am hopeful, endeavor to get back to me as soon as possible.

Yours In His Service,
Rev.Fr. Charles Jones.

Hi Aspman,

That's a hard one to call, it could almost be a wind-up?

Wimborne is spelt incorrectly. The first part of the postcode is correct, but the second one is impossible.

There is a Tetlow Street in Wimborne and there is a church in it, but it is Church of England not RC.

The RC church is St. Catherine's:

http://www.plymouth-diocese.org.uk/parishes/dorset/wimborne.htm

And Dorset is a hell of a long way from London.

Beats me how anyone could make anything out of it because there are no palms to be greased in the UK over a bequest or inheritance :D

Looking through the register today yielded a bit of interesting information about two/three fraudsters/scammers:

Story:


Nigerian fraud duo jailed for 37 years
Please excuse the manner of our sentencing...
By John Leyden

Published Monday 21st November 2005 14:15 GMT

Two Nigerian fraudsters have been jailed for a total of 37 years following their conviction for involvement in what has been described as the biggest scam in the West African Country's history. Emmanuel Nwude was sentenced to 25 years imprisonment and Nzeribe Okoli to 12 years imprisonment after they plead guilty to conspiring to defraud a Brazilian bank of $242m (£141m). The duo will also forfeit $121.5m in compensation to victims of their scam, which resulted in the collapse of Sao Paolo-based Banco Noroeste.

A third fraudster, Amaka Anajemba, who was jailed for two and a half years after agreeing to pay $48.5m in compensation. The crooks milked millions from staff at the Banco Noroeste by offering huge commissions in return for brokering a non-existent construction contract to build an airport in Nigeria's capital Abuja.

"The activities of the accused persons not only led to the collapse of a bank in a foreign country, but also brought miseries to many innocent people," said Justice Joseph Oyewole, Reuters reports. The convictions are the first by Nigeria's Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), established two years ago to combat the country's burgeoning trade in email scams.

EFCC said it has arrested more than 200 email scam suspects since 2003, secured a dozen convictions and confiscated property worth $200m. ®


But I wonder just how many more replace these couple of people caught?

Good day,

I am Mr. Alastair Wilson, staff of ADAM & COMPANY . I am contacting you
concerning a deceased customer and an investment he placed under our
banks
management Three years ago.I Would respectfully request that you keep
the
contents of this mail confidential and respect the integrity of the
information you come by as a result of this mail.

I am contacting you independently of our investigation and no one is
informed of this communication. I would like to intimate you with
certain
facts that I believe would be of interest to you. In the year 2002, the
subject matter; came to our bank to engage in business discussions with
our
private banking division. He informed us that he had a financial
portfolio
of Six Million United States dollars, which he wished to have us turn
over
(invest) on his behalf. I was the officer assigned to his case,I made
numerous suggestions in line with my duties as the de-facto chief
Investment
Management Officer of the private banking sector then, especially given
the
volume of funds he wished to put into our bank. We met on numerous
occasions
prior to any investments being placed.I encouraged him to consider
various
growth funds with prime ratings. The favored route in my advice to
customers
is to start by assessing data on 6000 traditional stocks and bond
managers
and 2000 managers of alternative investments.Based on my advice, We
spun the
money around various opportunities and made attractive margins for our
first
months of operation, the accrued profit and interest stood at this
point at
over Two million United States Dollars, this margin was not the full
potential of the fund but he desired low risk guaranteed returns on
investments.

In mid 2003, he asked that the money be liquidated because he needed to
make
an urgent investment requiring cash payments in Helsinki- Finland. He
directed that I liquidate the funds and deposit it with a security
firm. I
informed him that ADAM & COMPANY would have to make special
arrangements to
have this done and in order not to circumvent due process,the bank
would
have to make a 9.5 % deduction from the funds to cater for banking and
statutory charges. He complained about the charges but later came
around
when I explained to him the complexities of the task he was asking of
us.
Cash movement across boarders has become especially strict since the
incidents of 9/11. I contacted my affiliate and made the funds
available to
the security firm. I undertook all the processes and made sure I
followed
his precise instructions to the letter and had the funds deposited with
the
security firm. The Security Firm is a specialist private firm that
accepts
deposits from high net worth individuals and blue chip corporations
that
handle valuable products or undertake transactions that need immediate
access to cash. This small and highly private organization is familiar
especially to the highly placed and well-connected organizations. In
line
with instructions, the money was deposited with the security firm. The
deceased told me he wanted the money there in anticipation of his
arrival
from Norway later that week. This was the last communication we had,
this
transpired around 25th of November 2003.In June last year, we got a
call
from the security firm informing us about the inactivity of that
particular
portfolio.

This was an astounding position as far as I was concerned, given the
fact
that I managed the private banking sector I was the only one who knew
about
the deposit at the security firm, and I could not understand why the
deceased had not come forward to claim his deposit. I made futile
efforts to
locate the deceased. I immediately passed the task of locating him to
the
internal investigations department of ADAM & COMPANY. Four days later,
information started to trickle in, apparently our client was dead.A
person
who suited his description was declared dead of a heart attack in
canne, in
Southern part of France.We were soon enough to identify the body and
cause
of death was confirmed. The bank immediately launched an investigation
into
possible surviving next of kin to alert about the situation and also to
come
forward to claim his estate. If you are familiar with private banking
affairs, those who patronize our services usually prefer anonymity, but
also
some levels of detachment from conventional processes. In his bio-data
form,
he listed no next of kin. In the field of private banking, opening an
account with us means no one will know of its existence, accounts are
rarely
held under a name; depositors use numbers and codes to make the
accounts
anonymous. This bank also gives the choice to depositors of having
their
mail sent to them or held at the bank itself, ensuring that there are
no
traces of the account and as I said, rarely do they nominate next of
kin.
Private banking clients apart from not nominating next of kin also
usually
in most cases leave wills in our care, in this case; the deceased died
without a testate. In line with our internal processes for account
holders
who have passed away, we instituted our own investigations in good fate
to
determine who should have right to claim the estate. This investigation
has
for the past months been unfruitful. We have scanned every continent
and
used our private investigation affiliate companies to get to the root
of the
problem. It is this investigation that resulted in my being furnished
with
your details as a possible relative of the deceased.

My present official capacity as the Head of Investment Management
Service
dictates that I am the only party to supervise the investigation and
the
only party to receive the results of the investigation. What this
means, you
being the last batch of names we have considered is that our dear late
fellow died with no known or identifiable family member. This leaves me
as
the only person with the full picture of what the prevailing situation
is in
relation to the deposit and the late beneficiary of the deposit.
According
to practice, The Security Firm will by the end of this financial year
broadcast a request for statements of claim to ADAM & COMPANY, failing
to
receive viable claims they will most probably revert the deposit back
to
ADAM & COMPANY.This will result in the money entering the ADAM &
COMPANY
accounting system and the portfolio will be out of my hands and out of
the
private banking division.
This will not happen if I have my way. What I wish to relate to you
will
smack of unethical practice but I want you to understand something. It
is
only an outsider to the banking world who finds the internal politics
of the
banking world aberrational. The world of private banking especially is
fraught with huge rewards for those that occupy certain offices and
oversee
certain portfolios. You should have begun by now to put together the
general
direction of what I propose. There is Six Million dollars deposited in
a
security firm, I alone have the deposit details and they will release
the
deposit to no one unless I instruct them to do so. I alone know of the
existence of this deposit for as far as ADAM & COMPANY is concerned.
The
transaction with our late customer concluded when I sent the funds to
the
security firm, all outstanding interactions in relation to the file are
just
customer services and due process. The security Firm has no single idea
of
the history or nature of the deposit. They are simply awaiting
instructions
to release the deposit to any party that come forward. This is the
situation. This bank has spent great amounts of money trying to track
any
member of his family; they have investigated for months and have found
no
family. The investigation has come to an end.

My proposal; I am prepared to place you in a position to instruct The
security Firm to release the deposit to you as the closest surviving
relation. Upon receipt of the deposit,I am prepared to share the money
with
you. That is: I will simply nominate you as the next of kin and have
them
release the deposit to you. We share the proceeds 60/40.I would have
gone
ahead to ask that the funds be released to me, but that would have
drawn a
straight line to me and my involvement in claiming the deposit. But on
the
other hand, you with the same very name as the original depositor would
easily pass as the beneficiary with right to claim.I assure you that I
could
have the deposit released to you within a few days. I will simply
inform the
bank of the final closing of the file relating to the deceased. I will
then
officially communicate with The Security Firm and instruct them to
release
the deposit to you. With these two things: all is done. The alternative
would be for us to have The Security Firm direct the funds to another
bank
with you as account holder. This way there will be no need for you to
think
of receiving the money from The Security Company. We can fine-tune this
based on our interactions am aware of the consequences of this
proposal. I
ask that if you find no interest in this project that you should
discard
this mail. I ask that you do not be vindictive and destructive. If my
offer
is of no appeal to you, delete this message and forget I ever contacted
you.Do not destroy my career because you do not approve of my proposal.
You
may not know this but people like myself who have made tidy sums out of
comparable situations run the whole private banking sector.

I am not a criminal and what I do, I do not find against good
conscience,this may be hard for you to understand, but the dynamics of
my
industry dictates that I make this move. Such opportunities only come
ones'
way once in a lifetime. I cannot let this chance pass me by, for once I
find
myself in total control of my destiny. These chances will not pass me
by. I
ask that you do not destroy my chance, if you will not work with me let
me
know and let me move on with my life but do not destroy me. I am a
family
man and this is an opportunity to provide them with new
opportunities.There
is a reward for this project and it is a task well worth undertaking. I
have
evaluated the risks and the only risk I have here is from you refusing
to
work with me and alerting my bank. I am the only one who knows of this
situation, good fortune has blessed you with a luck that has planted
you
into the center of relevance in my life.Lets share the blessing. If you
find
yourself able to work with me, contact me through this email account.
If you
give me positive signals, I will initiate this process towards a
conclusion.
I wish to inform you that should you contact me via official channels;
I
will deny knowing you and about this project. I repeat, I do not want
you
contacting me through my official phone lines nor do I want you
contacting
me through my official email account. Contact me only through the
numbers I
will provide for you and also through this email address. I do not want
any
direct link between you and myself. My official lines are not secured
lines
as they are periodically monitored to assess our level of customer care
in
line with our Total Quality Management Policy.Please observe this
instruction religiously.

Please, again, note that I am a family man, I have a wife and children.
I
send you this mail not without a measure of fear as to what the
consequences, but I know within me that nothing ventured is nothing
gained
and that success and riches never come easy or on a platter of gold.
This is
the one truth I have learned from my private banking clients. Do not
betray
my confidence.
Kindly send your response to my private email address
:alastairwilson44@yahoo.co.uk

I await your response.

Alastair Wilson.

By taking care of your e-mail addresses.

Categorise them:

1. Family, friends, work etc...............these you don't hand out.

2. "Disposable" accounts for subscribing to things etc. You will know when to expect stuff, and that the rest is either spam or scam. You will probably want at least one for technical newsletters, suppliers offers etc.

I have to sheepishly say that i havent even thought of this ... :eek: So noob.

However I bought a domain and using it on google apps and that email address never gets spammed even though i subscribe to things and do my daily business on there. On the other hand my plain @gmail.com account is spammed continuously. Im not sure if they are using some kind of backend for the paid accounts but it works :)

best advice I ever heard is to have an fake online profile for all those annoying sites...that ask name,address, birth date, to register software :rolleyes:....tied to one of your slush email accounts.

I have 5 email addresses...and 2 fake profiles.

one is similar to

Some sites may reject it...most dont.

I use hundreds of email accounts. Most are single use that are immediately abandoned.
I do the same thing as nihil suggests for all of my more permanent email accounts.
I also use Google Voice so I can have single use anonymous phone numbers, too.

I like to find old abandoned e-mail accounts, yahoo / hotmail / gmail etc, then re-register them, then i go to what ever site and get useraccount psswrd reset's sent to them, then i logg in with the users account and have some lulz at there expense.

those free e-mail services are great, because if a person don't log into there e-mail account for 11weeks then they can be re-registered by some1 else.

I'll just take a seat in the "Skiddie" Corner :D
