I go this in the mail WARNING THE IS A FRAUD DO ATTEMPT.

I NEED YOUR TRUST

PLOT 2, AJOSE ADEOGUN STREET
VICTORIA-ISLAND LAGOS-NIGERIA
EMAIL: drnelsonsamuel2000
Dear Friend,

Re: Transfer of $18,000.000. (Eighteen Million US Dollars)

We want to transfer to overseas {$18,000,000] Eighteen Million United
States
dollars from Eco International Bank Nig Plc.I would like to know if
you will be
capable and fit to Provide either an existing Bank account or to set up
a new
Bank account immediately to receive this money, evenan empty account
can
serve to receive this money as long as you will remain honest to me
till the
end
of this important business transaction.

I am Dr Samuel Nelson Director of Accounts Department of Eco
International
Bank plc, during the course of our auditing I discovered a floating
fund in an
account opened with our Bank in 2000 and since 2002 nobody has operated
on
this account again, after going through some old files in the records I
discovered
that the owner of the account died without a heir hence the money is
floating
and if I do not remit this money out urgently it will be forfeited for

nothing.

The owner of this account was Engr. Anthony Hamill, a national of your
country an Industrialist. He died since 2002 and no other person knows
about
this account or anything concerning it,the account has no beneficiary
and my
investigation proved to me as well that Engr. Anthony Hamill until his
death
was a Manager with an oil firm in Nigeria.

I am contacting you as a foreigner because this Money can only be
approved to
a foreigner with a foreign account because the money is in us dollars
and the
former owner of the account Engr. Anthony Hamill is a foreigner. I am
revealing
all these information to you with the belief that you will never let
me down in
this business. You are the first and the only person I am contacting
for the
business so please reply urgently for me to tell you the next step to
take.

You should forward the following information: Your telephone/fax
numbers
and your Residential address, which is also needed. You will have to
give me
the
assurance that when we meet, this money will be intact pending our
physical
arrival in your country for sharing and disbursement of the fund which
will be
35% for your assistance, 60% will be for us while 5% will be set aside
to take
care of all the expenses that would be incurred by both parties during
the
course of the transfer.

All I require is your honest co-operation to enable us see this deal
through.I
guarantee
that this will be executed under a legitimate arrangement that will
protect you
from
any breach of the law. Please get in touch with me by my alternative
email
(drnelsonsamuel2000) immediately you receive this letter for further
clarifications.

Yours faithfully,

Dr. Samuel Nelson

The sandbox was very rarely used by moderators, site owners and admins, it was used by the regular member to have "fun". Flame baiting, spamming or whatever, I think it would have been only fair to ask what everyone else thought first. Regardless of the outcome, it would have been a lot less selfish (because removing it like this is) and would have gotten a much better response.

I get no spam.

Well I do but my filters catch it :P I do think that any experienced user should be able to tell the difference from a real email and spam.

This scam is quite common. The pathetic part is it works on many people (sadly it's notoriously people from the US who fall for it... :roll: ). It's even coming through the mail now. :? We just got one in the mail yesterday. :o

It comes in many forms, but usually it is something like: "We want to give you millions of dollars. We just need $1,000 (or some sort of personal information) from you first" :P

But what did such a Teuton afterwards look like when he had been "improved" and led into a monastery? Like a caricature of a human being, like an abortion: he had become a "sinner," he was in a cage, one had imprisoned him behind nothing but sheer terrifying concepts... There he lay now, sick, miserable, filled with ill-will towards himself; full of hatred for the impulses toward life, full of suspicion of all that was still strong and happy. In short, a "Christian"... - Twighlight of the Idols

ImageYes a very easy but sad way to gain money. There are many people that fall for this scam. Some might be a user on this site. The world may never know.
