What can Brown do for a scam

I love the fact that they did not proof read this message first. The line that says “A scammed copy…” says it all.

Your parcel has been deposited to our office, because the driver was unable to complete the delivery. The delivery attempt was made in the morning, at your home address, but nobody answered the door or the phone.

Please call UPS to reschedule the delivery. You must confirm the information on the delivery slip that the driver left in your mailbox.

New Government Program…

While this is absolutely a scam, I have to give it to the criminals for something original. They still don’t get the details, which is good for us. Details such as the Department of Justice using a free web-based email account or referring to the amount as “$FIVE MILLION U.S dollars” are a dead giveaway. We won’t even mention the poor grammar, oh wait, we just did.

Mueller or Mulder

Jim D. sent us this message from an imposter FBI agent. I would have to agree with Jim when he said “This guy is pretty brave in impersonating an FBI agent.”, but these guys really think they will never be caught. Besides the FBI would never use a fbisomething.com address, they would be coming from a .gov email address, and you probably would have been contacted by some other means first. To learn more about the real FBI’s internet crime division, please visit them at www.FBI.gov.
