Oh yeah. It's a joke.
I hear from my African friends about once a week. good stories, but they are all the same. You should try replying to them, voicing your doubt, calling them a hacker, say your sorry for them they aren't getting any laughs here.
Tell them it's good litereature though, don't want to break those literary geniuses hearts now do we?

That is an extremely popular scam. I've been reading about those for years. The funny thing is, they were fram Africa too! |

Probably is a scam, however, have you ever bought a lottery ticket?..The chances of you winning are probably 1 in 10million, but you still buy one, so if there was a 1 in 1million chance this was real why wouldnt u consider doing it?
You can always open a separate account with no money in there. |

Good instincts! It's def. a scam. Such people tend to steal money or embezzle from AFrican governments, then try to send the cash off-shore so they can use it for their good.
Some people also try to phish for personal info and bank details that way, so they can steal people's identities and bank details. Some end up cleaning out people's bank accounts that way and using people's identities to get fake documentation for illegal aliens. Beware, never ever offer any of your personal details via e-mail, not even to your bank.
This is because banks usually do not ask for your personal details via e-mail. |

I get these too!! i even got a phone call off some african bank guy to confirm it. but it is a scam. they get your bank details and they can use it to get credit cards, loans, morgages, and overdrafts on your account! dont buy into it!
and since when was africa so rich! i just tell them i'll only do it if they invest half into there own economy. HA HA HA!
be sure of one thing though, this isnt the last email of it's kind youll get! i once got 3 in the same day!
they usually come in the inbox and say somethink like, so and so passed away and has no one in his will or any family to pass the money on to, he/she has a certain million dollars in there account and we want to transfer it to you, you will take 2 million. somethink like that. NO ONE FIVES MONEY TO ANYONE! and even if it was real, last thing you want to be is in a police station explaining it.
'oh some african guy gave it to me, all 12 million dollars' 'yea sure they did, you terrorist/drug dealer!' |

You are right, most bulks are scams and spams, I never trust them and delete them.
If you read one that says you just won a million bucks, first check out the grammar, for example "you''ve won one million dollers!" If you think it's not true, delete it. Second of it totally isn't true, but I don't know how they know your email (maybe from a directory or something), if you know you couldn't JUST "win one million bucks" delete it. Third of all spams just take so much time reading, so I suggest just empty your bulk folder.
Moral: never believe in spams. |

They basically use this same story on other scams, also!. I get these scam offers all the time, any time you send them back your information they useit for other scams they run in their own areas. They have one out know that tells you that you won a car, and the one you got probably also tells you that don't reply back to them but another e-mail they give you on their offering? they just want to get your personal info.. |

So far Nigerian scammers have offered to give me one-third of $28 million, $43 million, $190 million, $52 million, etc.
I currently have a necklace for sale on craigslist and I've gotten 12 emails from Nigerian scammers that want to pay me with Paypal so they can do a chargeback on their Paypal after I send them my necklace.
I tell them either a face to face cash transaction in a crowded public location or Egold because Egold transactions can't be reversed.
Check out this video. It's a very popular song in Nigeria about the scams they pull. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AMRjymIvGu4
Anybody want to buy a 24kt gold necklace? http://dallas.craigslist.org/jwl/295192394.html |
