This scam has been around a very long time, occasionally one gets through the firewall, but it only takes one person to fall for it and the ‘Trader’ has made their money.
It is also important to be aware that by responding in any way – telling them to clear off –
Is not a good idea, it tells them that your e-mail account is active and again that will be sold on.
Dear Friend,
My name is Mr. Ibrahim Abdoul. If the content of this message is contrary to your moral ethics, please accept my apology. But, please treat with absolute secrecy. I am working with one of the prime banks in Burkina Faso. Here in this bank existed a dormant account for many years, which belong to one of our late foreign customer. The amount in this account stands at $13,300,000.00 (Thirteen Million Three Hundred Thousand US Dollars).
I was very fortunate to come across the deceased customer’s security file during documentation of old and abandoned customer’s files for an official documentation and audit of the year 2020.
I want a foreign account where the bank will transfer this fund. I know you would be surprised to read this message, especially from someone relatively unknown to you. But, do not worry yourself so much. This is a genuine, risk free and legal business transaction. All details shall be sent to you once I hear from you.
If you are really sure of your sincerity, trustworthiness, accountability and confidentiality over this transaction, reply back to me urgently. cantact me on (Removed).
Best regards,
Mr. Ibrahim Abdoul
