Here is another type of scam, i get these all the time.
They are referred to as "Phishing" say "fishing" emails they offer money but the catch is you must provide all your personal details, of course they then use this info for ID to gain credit in your name and you end up with the bill.
I received this email 10 mins ago.
WARNING - Do not reply under any circumstances.
Dear Beneficiary:
I am sorry for the cheque I sent to you for your payment, which you’re unable to Cash due to some unforeseen circumstances. I was able to cash the money here and paid all the necessary bills involved in the transactions, and your INTEREST of $1,000 000.00 (One Million United States Dollars) is in cash, and I boxed the money and deposited it with UPS DIPLOMATIC COURIER COMPANY to deliver it to you as a cash payment, this is the only best system and fastest means to pay you, at this time. You are to contact the UPS COURIER COMPANY with your delivery details including your telephone number, so that they will deliver the package (boxed money) to your personal address, within 48 hours. The UPS Representative or Officer in charge of the box details is below:-
UPS DELIVERY SERVICE CONTACT. Address: 8, Adepite close Victoria Island Lagos, Nigeria Officer Name: Mr. Benet Davis EMAIL: [email protected] Phone #:- +234-802-577-7843
Fill in the details above to your COURIER AGENT for verification.
Please I want to let you know that only the supervisor knows the content and nobody else knows about this. You are to contact only Mr. Benet Davis the supervisor, so please waist no time in contacting them. I have paid for the delivery fee so the only money you have to send to them now is the security keeping fee of your consignment and it is $150 United States Dollars.
I would have paid that but they said no because they don't know when you will contact them and in case of demurrage. Please I will advice you to be friendly with Mr.Benet Davis the supervisor because he alone has the idea of the content of your consignment. But i want to let you know that I did not give him the key of the boxes so please take note that as soon as they deliver the consignment use this (CODE NUMBERS TO OPEN THE TWO BOXES TO KNOW IF THE COMPLETE ONE MILLION USD IS IN IT).
THE FIRST BOX CODE (0036589) THE SECOND BOX CODE (0014759) AND I WANT YOU TO KEEP THIS CODE NUMBERS CONFIDENTIAL IN YOUR HOME TO AVOID ANOTHER PERSON GETTING IN TOUCH WITH YOUR MONEY MAY GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY.NOTE THAT THE ONLY MONEY YOU WILL PAY UPS IS $150 DOLLARS AND NO MORE.
Thanks for your patience Sincerely Mrs. Sharon Jones
Sorry Sharon if that's your real name LOL , i'm not that stupid.
