Looks like I’m running out of time to claim my money.
This is your typical advance fee fraud. We’ve seen a spike in this particular email floating around over the past few days. Did you get it?
Sample:
[alert style=”danger”]
Hello,
This is the second email we are sending you now after two weeks, if you
get this one, I write to inform you that we have already sent you
$5,000.00 through our Western Union as we have been given the
mandate to transfer your full compensation payment of $250,000.00 USD via
Western Union by the United Nations. This is because United Nations are
supporting individuals due to the worldwide economy meltdown..
So, I decided to email you the MTCN and sender name, so you can pick up this
$5000.00 USD to enable us send another $5000.00 by tomorrow as you know,
we will be sending you only $5000.00 per day.
Please pick up this information and run to any Western Union in your
country to pick up the $5000.00 USD and call me back to send you another
payment tomorrow.
Information’s to pick up the money
*MTCN: 2342032544
*First Name: Kim
*Last Name: Regan
*Amount $5,000.00
