You too can be a criminal

Not only is this email playing on your feelings for our armed forces, but it is asking you to become a criminal and defraud the government. Granted this would make a great movie. Oops, they already did make that movie.

$25,000,000.00 US dollars.

This money is being kept safe in a secured location we  would disclose to you later.You can go through this
web link to understand events that took place in Iraq.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/2988455.stm
Basically, since we are in government service and we  are not allowed to have or keep discovered looted
funds around us, we have decided to look for someone  to help us relocate and keep this funds for us, that
is why I have contacted you, so that you can keep it  for us in your safe account or custody untill we
complete our foreign service in Iraq.

You will take30%, while 70% will be for me and my  partner.This business is confidential, and it should
not be discussed with anyone. There is no risk  involved whatsoever as it is only me and my partner
that knows the present location of the money.

If you are interested I will send you operational  details, my job is to find agood partner that we can
trust and that will assist us. Can I trust you? To  ensure confidentiality, when you receive this
letter,kindly reply me via e-mail:signifying your  interest including your phone and fax numbers for
quick communication and also your physical locational  address.

Special Offer from the FBI, Not!

Wow, this is bold. You don’t need agents Mulder and Scully to see that there is something a bit alien with this email. I really hope that the real “Intelligence monitoring Network System” is better that what these criminals think of it, because it has generated an email to someone that it was “informed that you died in an auto crash some weeks agao.”

Warning from a spammer.

I really like the part where this spammer is warning you of other “impostors.” This spam email has all the elements, a large some of money, foreign intrigue and a legitimate site is mentioned. 

United Nations Assisted Program

Directorate of International Payment 
United Nations Liaison Office – Africa

This email is to notify you about the release of your outstanding payment which is truly $4.7 million. The Federal Government scheduled a time frame to settle all foreign debts which includes Contract/Inheritance/Gambling/Lottery (Sponsored by Microsoft and UK National Lottery) and other international loans. News had it that over the past, numerous individual(s) who happen to be impostors (claiming to be individuals, banks and organizations) are claiming to release numerous sums of fund via numerous ways.

You have two options to receive your payment which is either a Pin Based ATM card or Certified Cashiers Check.

You are advised to select one out of the two options on how you wish to receive your $4.7 million. Your ATM card or Check/Bank Draft will be shipped via FedEx Shipping Company and would get to you within 2 to 3 working days at most.

DO NOT SEND MONEY TO ANYONE UNTIL YOU READ THIS: The actual fees for shipping your ATM card is $96.99 but because Fedex have temporarily discontinued the C.O.D which gives you the chance to pay when package is delivered for international shipping as stated on their website: [Link Removed]  We had to sign contract with them for bulk shipping which makes the fees reduce from the actual $96.99 to $73.95 nothing more and no hidden fees of any sort! 

You are advised to contact the dispatch officer responsible for the shipping of your Check or ATM card with the following information for shipping of your payment Check or ATM card.

Dispatch Officer: Michael Grizla
Email: mikelgrizla@fakedomain.spm
Tel: +234-###-###-5998 or 011-234-###-###-5998

And provide him with the following information:

Your full Name…
Your Address:…………….
Home/Cell Phone:……………….
Preferred Payment Method (Check or ATM):…………….

The dispatch officer will provide you with instructions on how you are to make payment of the $73.95 only for the shipping of your ATM card or Cashiers Check. 

Remember that you are not paying any fees extra no matter what. Once again note that the actual Fedex Retail Price: $96.99 Your Price (Because of our contract signed): $73.95 ($23.04 Savings!).

Yours sincerely,
Mr. Anthony Moore

MobileMe PhishFirst off, Apple will never ask you for your credit card information via email. Secondly, if any company asks you to update your information via am email, don’t use the link in the email. Instead go to their website directly, by typing in their address or using a bookmark. There is software that will help you avoid entering your username and password on the wrong site. One such program for the Mac is called 1Password from Agile Solutions. There is a support article on Apple’s site, giving you more information on how to protect your self with scammers like this.
