Guest guest Posted November 13, 2006 Report Share Posted November 13, 2006 Hi all A number of scams are doing the rounds. If someone says you have some money coming to you or help me out I have been left some money and you will benefit, delete straightaway. If it looks too good to be true then it definitely is. The latest one is:- [my writing] I have been given your name by a very dear friend of yours [doesn't say who it is] I have been left some money in a Will but because I live in Namibia [ or Seira Leone or Mexico or wherever] and the only way I can receive this money is through a UK banking system [or USA] if you can pay my cheque in to your own account and write me an international money order I will upon receipt of this send you a personal cheque for £2500 [ $4000] for your time and trouble, just send me your name and address [What happens a cheque is paid into your account but is immediately cancelled, In the meantime you have sent your international money order which cannot be cancelled and you find yourself out of pocket by several thousands. Be warned, don't do it! LOL Velvet x UK Send instant messages to your online friends http://uk.messenger.yahoo.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
