Messy Scam Mail from "FBI"?
- 9-27-2008
- Categorized in: 419 Scams
.Scam Type: 419 Scam
Fake Names: Robert S. Mueller, III (meaning this may not be the real name)
Offer Type: Money Transfer
Transfer Amount: US$10.5million
Storyline: Something fake stuff about FBI and a bank in Africa. We were lost somewhere near the top of the mail.
Scammer Location: Africa
Scammer Email: federalbureau@crimesinvestigation.com (fake?), fbi_anticrimesdivision@hotmail.com
Scammers like to use the term "FBI" very much in their scams, thinking that it adds "credibility" to their email. They are so desperate that they try to fake everything "big", like "World Local Bank", "HSBC", "Bank of America", "Diplomatic Immunity Seal Of Transfer". On the contrary, it makes the whole story so messy and ridiculous that we don't think even anyone knows how to respond.
This is one of the longest, most messy, scam mail we have every seen so far.
Perhaps its time for ISO standardisation for scam mails.

I have recieved a FBI scam and how dare these scammers threatening to throw me in jail if I do not respond to them by a certain date. To think how low some one will go to take money from people by useing ones own governmental offices name against them just to get a response. Well let me tell you that I am not going to play their game. The thing is these people can easily change their e-mail and keep sending the same letters with very little differences. A good rule of thumb is; if something seems to good to be true than it more than likely it is not.
