Re: Payment Notification:

We are writhing to know if it's true that you are DEAD? Because we received a notification from one MR. SANDRA SHAPIRO of USA stating that you are DEAD and that you have giving him the right to claim your funds. He stated you died on a CAR accident. He has been calling us regarding this issue, but we cannot proceed with him until we confirm this by not hearing from you after 7days. Be advised that we
have made all arrangements for you to receive and confirm your funds without anymore stress, and without any further delays.

All we need to confirm now is your been DEAD Or still Alive. Because this
MAN'S message brought shock to our minds. And we just can't proceed with
him until we confirm if this is a reality OR not But if it happened we did not hear from you after 7days, then we say: MAY YOUR SOUL REST IN PERFECT PEACE"

YOUR JOY AND SUCCESS REMAINS OUR GOAL.

Forgetting the bad English and misspellings, one has to wonder how can I respond if I'm dead?
The only info the didn't ask for was my bank account info.

One could have a lot of fun with this, if they were so inclined: Like putting the head of the FBI and his business info in. Not that I'm suggesting anyone do that.

Also note that my name or e-mail addy does not appear anywhere on the e-mail.

This one goes into the "Deleted" folder, but it is interesting.

This one contains some of the worst English I have seen, even for a Lad from Lagos. I have, in the past, responded to such things, supplying the address and telephone number for the San Francisco Police Department.

Don't worry, the bank account stuff or request for Western Union transfer would come along directly if you were fool enough to respond.

These guys never seem to give up.

These guys never seem to give up.

and sadly, they never will, as long as there are enough unwitting victims out there who get duped.

Yes, I died on a car accident.
