A prince in Africa wants to put 10 million dollars in my bank account for me to hold for him. He will then award me 10% for letting him put it there. All I need to do is send my bank account info to him.
I am feeling really honored that a prince would pick me to hold his wealth. Makes me feel kind of bad for not telling him that the IRS seized my account and anything that tries to connect to it gets seized too. Maybe he will forgive me later.

I too was so honored by the same type of offer. Although I have received them from the attorneys of these dead people who are going to lose it all if they can't find any heirs to get the inheritance out of bum a tuck nyrobienerdsickleville in underthe belly landof cotton. These are not real places okay, but when i read that stuff it is what it reminds me of.
I was very timid at first and gave replies like no thank you , I don't want to risk losing all of your money, junk like that.
Then I got so many one day I just couldn't restrain my natural instincts to attack when left an opening for a really good burn. And they do leave so much room to roam!
I replied to them that I was an officer for the homeland security undercover operations out of the centally located and world wide sanctioned task force newly set up to catch people who were trying to steal the money from all of those poor rich princes and poobahs and stuff.
I told them that I had been monitoring all of their communications and that not to move from where they were sitting. They were under arrest and to wait there. If they moved from where they were sitting I would not be responsible for what would happen to them, they were forwarned.
I added that in approximately 15 minutes they would hear a loud popping sound. This was the time they needed to put their heads down onto their knees and take a deep breath and close their eyes.
I didn't tell them why. I just signed off, ' lock the money theives down ',was in motion and would be in need of rescue vehicles as well as to notify the local medical hospital to be prepared for injuries resulting from flying debris as in an explosion, and for maybe breathing problems from noxious gases.
I had a great time. I haven't heard from anyone trying to help me help themselves to my money in a long time. the way I figured it , if they think I am stupid enough to do what they ask, they were probably stupid enough to believe and do what I asked.

Um, I'm hoping you're being sarcastic, because anyone who believes they will make a profit out of this situation needs their head checked. First off, how would a prince way over in Africa get your contact information, and specifically YOURS? He could have anyone's in the world. If he was smart, he wouldn't entrust 10 million dollars to a stranger. You're kidding, right?

Hmm... Isn't there also a "withdraw by in-person signature only account?"
Good thing the IRS was there to help you sort out that "perfectly legal currency transfer" too! Man is that stuff complicated. Better to report your earnings to the IRS properly and early. Having them there on the account probably saved you a lot of time, huh?

I received that rip off attempt e mail myself a few weeks ago and immediately deleted it, before i could report it as spam. that is pure bull crap, don't fall for it, or any thing like that. they only want your bank account number to withdraw YOUR MONEY OUT ! how do you think they picked you ? the same way they are picking everyone else, by being on web sites like this one. they will send hundreds of e mails out with that fake story hoping someone will respond, and some people do, and they
