My advice Answers

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.

which i raised in your favour for your compensation for all the
past efforts and attempts to assist me in this matter.

I am very busy here because of the investment projects which me and the
new partner are having at hand, finally,remember that i had forwarded
instruction to the secretary on your behalf to receive that money,so
feel free to get intouch with Pedro without any delay.
