Costa Coffee Scam
Hi i just received $3000 worth of WAL*Mart money orders today....here is the email I received from Costa Coffee.
THIS IS TO INFORM YOU THAT ONE OF OUR CUSTOMERS HAS ISSUED OUT PAYMENT IN YOUR FAVOR IN THE FORM OF AN INSTANT PAYOUT MONEY ORDER THROUGH (UPS POSTAL MAIL).
YOU ARE KINDLY ADVISE TO TRACK IT USING THE BELOW TRACKING NUMBER: (xxxxx)
NOTE THAT IT WILL ARRIVE YOUR ADDRESS TODAY THE OF 31st JULY, 2007.
We are presently having problem getting raw materials from my clients in Asia, we no longer get from there, due to inflation of prices..so we sent two of our purchasing officers to West Africa, cause we were told African Materials comes in cheap prices.
But we are having problems with the government there ,exportation of goods from Africa to Europe is really hard..some of our goods are grounded and need to be released based on some certain amount to be paid to them..
sending the money to us here in London would be a waste of time, since we are still gonna send some funds to the clients in Africa...so , please send the money to our purchasing officers in Africa in order for them to pay up the money needed to get the goods cleared. As soon as you receive the INSTANT PAYOUT MONEY ORDER, go to your Bank and cash it out then Proceed to a nearest MONEY GRAM OR WESTERN UNION POINT. Deduct your 10% from the funds Then wire the remaining to the below information.
