Supranature Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 Without exaggeration, I have had at least 100 similar type e-mails over the last 2 years. They all seem to be from different people, using varying deceased names, but with the same/similar ludicrous amounts! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keener Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 Just a crap twist on the bank scam emails really. The language/grammar is a total giveaway along with what must be the only solicitor in the world who gives a Hotmail email account as his work email!!
