It's a full on scam. The trick is you send details of your account believing this nice gentleman / lady will deposit a few million into your bank account. In reality, when they have your details (all of which they ask for they wouldn't need to send you money) they will essentially wipe out your bank account, probably steal your identity and leave you with a real nasty couple of years getting your life back on track. Seeing also how these guys operate (not being racist, but it's true) mostly out of Africa, it is very difficult to track them down and persecute them and indeed prove that they stole your money.
http://www.419eater.com will give you a good overview of how you can play these guys for fools and just about the dangers of falling for these traps! |

DO NOT DO THIS!!!!
PLEASE!
This is a scam, if you send them your info you will probably have your identity stolen. Oh, and when you give them your bank account number to transfer the money - there WILL be money transferred.... Yours! I'm begging you, Don't do it. |

So he wants to just give you money and all you have to do is give all of your personal information. First off you have nothing to gain and your identity to lose. I know what I would to and that would be to never have been in contact with that person in the first place. If you get a chance watch the Dateline NBC "To Catch an Identity Theif" cuz it shows people who do exactly what this person is trying to do to you. |

Just ignore it. this is a big time scam. They will lure you into this and then will come up with some problem issuing the money and will ask you to send the money to get the release of documents. Pls. dont get involve into it. |

SCAM ALERT!!!!!!!!!!
Stop and think: why would he need your passport in order to send you money?
There is no money. You are being set up for identity theft and possible criminal prosecution for aiding in money laundering. |

IT is soo a trap!!1 Do not do it, these people are scammers. I always delete the e-mails I get from people like that. If you want your identity stolen, do it, but it is so a scam! |

ask them to email you the identity doc, contact address,and phone of his representative agent first. Most likely they won't do it. It's a Nigerian scam. |

whatever it is, you don't give other people images of your passport, address and contact numbers.
with these pieces of information, you could be ripped off or someone without a passport could end up with one that looks alot like yours. |
