Miscellaneous Scam Money Transfers
Example - Donald Moore, Mr Eric Moore
Due to your effort, sincerity, courage trustworthiness you showed at the course of the transaction.I want to compensate you and show my gratitude to you with the sum of $750,000.00 Thousand United State Of America Dollars
Did you receive an email from a "Donald Moore" who
says to contact Mr Eric Moore and "Due to your effort, sincerity, courage trustworthiness you showed at the course of the transaction.I want to compensate you and show my gratitude to you with the sum of $750,000.00 Thousand United State Of America Dollars"
And Mr Donald Moore is too busy to bother even talking with you about the
$750,000 he wants to simply give you, that he's handed it off to some assistant.
I guess Mr. Moore must be worth billions if nearly a million dollars means that
little to him. Yeah, right, that's why you've never heard of him,.... he's a
scammer!
Certainly
the scammer will try to steal your identity and get you to send him money, but
the text of the scam is so odd, it's hard to imagine anyone falling for it. If
this email out-of-the-blue from an unknown foreigner offering to pay you absurd
amounts of money for almost no work doesn't strike you as a scam, then you
really need to read through a number of the scams on this website and
familiarize yourself with their approach.
Donald Moore and Mr Eric Moore (not their real names, obviously, and probably the
same person) hopes to con you into sending money for various "fees" to free the fortune.
