I recieved this thing the first time last summer and reported it to the FBI. They told me I wasn't the first. They gave me an investigation number and they would check it out. I havn't a clue what they were doing about it since then but when I got another copy of it about a week ago and reported it I was told that they already knew about it and just dump it.

Just got the chance to read this topic, not only is this scam not new, I got a LETTER I would swear was exactly the same about ten years ago when I was building jewelry stores.
Just goes to show: everything old is new again.

Knuckleheads always believe 3 things:

1) They're doing something new.

2) Nobody will do anything.

3) They won't get caught.

CONVICTED knuckleheads think:

1) They won't do jail time.

2) It won't come to trial.

3) The evidence won't stand up.

4) They can Plea-Bargain.

5) Their "Buddies" will get them out.

~ and finally ~


6) The people on their Parole Board don't own computers...

CISS or simply just MOUNTIES in full size rental cars.As this what

CSIS I believe is the correct Canadian equivalent...
This is how the scam works. They get your bank info (no big deal, you can always open a new account and leave it empty, right?)
BUT, this is the kicker: They want a couple thousand dollars from you to help the transactions go smoothly and quickly, since their money is all tied up in legalities. So, counting the the people that actually fall for this, that 2 thousand here and there really adds up!
Suckers...

I'm an international banker too. And if you send me $10,000.00 I will garauntee a deposit of $10,000,000 to your account within 10 days.

Can you imagine giving out that kind of info to an known Email address. The one bad thing about the net is you can be anyone you want from anywere.

I think about 50,000 people received this already... So much for 'strictly confidential'!
