Have you received an email from "Dr. Eze Ayogu" of Nigeria National Assembly Complex, claiming
"This is to acknowledge the receipt of the order from the senate house, in respect with the provision act of decree 114 of the 1999 constitution; I am directed to inform you that your payment verification and confirmations is correct. Therefore, we are happy to inform you that arrangements have been concluded to effect your payment as soon as possible a"
and they owe you money from a "contract/inheritance payment
file" or a pyament to "Scam victims" or some other nonsense, and
they will send you the money on an ATM card, to be shipped by "GLOBAL SPEED COURIER SERVICES LIMITED NIGERIA"?
"Dr. Eze Ayogu" is a educated and highly ranking lawyer, banker or government official who apparently
feels the odd need to randomly capitalize some WORDS (like that). Add to that
the fact that you have never heard of anyone being paid for anything by "ATM
card" and this should immediately strike you as a scam. Allow us to point out the
inconsistencies and how the scam works.
It's a mystery why "Dr." Eze Ayogu named you as a
beneficiary or what the "contract" is, but you better reply
pretty quickly or risk losing millions from the "contract/inheritance payment
file". Also notice that the "lawyer"
or official is writing to you from a free email account (Yahoo, Hotmail, etc.); in fact,
they typically use more than one different free email accounts.
