Cool Has anyone received one from this person named Bridget Bana?

Dear Randy

Compliments of the day.Thanks for your mail and also your understanding.My sister am very much happy about you and i understand your problem,the world we are living in is full of distrust and problems but i promise you that this transaction is risk free,you and i canot have any problem about this business.as time goes on in this transaction,we will undrstand each other and also trust one another.

i have to contact our Financial adviser to know if there's any other alternative to transfer this money into your account then i will let you know,but if there's another alterenative you have to comply with it so that we can have an easy transfer.I will like to have you your Private telephone number for easy communication.


Hoping to hear from you

This woman supposedly is a refuge living in zimbobwae South Africa and she says she has seven million USD that she needs help getting out of the country for some reason and wants me to help her for 30%. She even sent me a legal document to look over and sign and send back. Is this a real document? Is there anyway this could hurt me? They haven't asked for any money from me and her son has even called me. I was suppose sign the document already and send it back, but I'm very leary cause I just got scam by Sun Fabrics out of the UK recently.

Arrow This seems TYPICAL Nigerian 419 Scam

Dear reader6787.....

It is a bit difficult to say something since you didn't post all emails which you have received in the beginning...... , However

This message seems "Next of Kin" or "Refuge" scam combined with "Advanced Fee" fraud in Nigerian 419 Scam.

They have lots of tricks to have you pay for documentation, courier
or financial adviser/attoney fee, etc etc in near future to handle this
and pretend to remit the huge amount of money to your bank account.

Also the legal document they send to you are all fake, which can be easily forged.

So please NEVER contact them further.
Hope this will be the eternal and final lessen of yours.
We have sadly lots of criminals in the internet world!!

Arrow continued

Also if you reveal your bank account details to them,
I should suggest you to contact your bank immediately
to close your bank account in order to keep your money safe.

And get in touch with your Law Enforcement or a local police in your area
together with all emails received and sent.

Exclamation

Dear reader

Awareriskinc gave you best advice. STOP contact with them, are scams. They do not know even to write correct the name of the country (zimbobwae)

Read carefully in main page article for the "Dangers from 419 Nigerian Scams"
