paulson smith: $1,500,000.00 to you for your compensation

Hello, I am Miss Young. A scammer often fails in making his victim pay him money. But he does not give up if he thinks it is still possible to convince the victim. He could try a new scam with hidden millions or a big lottery winning. Another approach is a compensation letter where he promises the victim a big sum as compensation. The compensation money does not exist, - it is simply the start of a new scam. The letter below is an example of such a letter.

My Dear,

How are you doing? I know that this will surely be a pleasant surprise for you because you were not expecting it. I have instructed my Lawyer Barr Nana Kwesi to release $1,500,000.00 to you for your compensation for your assistant in the past which later failed. Write him now through his Email:{nanakwesi1@live.com} for his prompt attention.

Regards,
Dr.Paulson Smith
