Usually in their e-mails they say something like they want to give the money to someone who is honest and will do something good to help people with the money. My friend wrote them back and said that he wouldn't help anybody but would spend all the money on gambling. booze and women. They wrote him back and said surely you could do some good with at least part of it. They will go to any length to get you to fall for their scam.

the unique emails sent out are solid. There at the instant are some circling which at the instant are not genuine. A hyperlink could be interior the e mail putting forward which you will be able to desire to declare your area of the journey earlier March something. once you click on the hyperlink it is going to ask to your call (or the call linked to the account) and different advice correct to the account. It takes approximately 5 minutes to fill each and everything out, in case you do not study any of it. in case you experience like taking the time, which i'm guessing you won't pondering you published this earlier searching for the lots of different questions purely like it, you could upward push as much as $10 from facebook. If too a lot of human beings declare area of the settlement, then facebook will donate the money to a non-income charity interior the names of people who claimed the areas.

I keep getting those to. I bet I am the closest next of kin for about 400 different dead people in about 30 different countries and I would bet I'm probably in line to receive about 200 billion dollars from these dead people I don't even know. Although there must be people that fall for it because they keep getting sent.

Well if you get one from some foriegn country like Nigeria or something- those are REAL- NOT!!
I don't know those emails annoy me and occasionally on the news I hear of someone who fell for them- some people are just too gullible.
Anyway- if you just want to send you money to me, then I will take it. I don't have any rich uncles who are gonna die and leave me money- I don't think. And even if I did I have a whole passle of cousins to fight over it. And my boyfriend is not rich- dang it, I screwed up there.
You should forward them all on to he who won't be named that we all blocked- that will teach him.

They ask for your personal information so that they can transfer the money to your account, but then they drain the account instead. It happened to someone I know but luckily he had no money in his account anyway.
