Hello, I am Miss Young. I received the following email. It is a socalled
"Advance Fee Fraud" letter, where I am promised millions for
my assistance. These stories are all lies, and if I respond, sooner
or later I will be asked to pay a fee. If I pay, another fee will quickly
come up, and it will continue that way until I give up or run out of
money. I will never see the millions, because they never existed.
If you received a similar email, you should go to the homepage
to read more about 419 fraud. |

Dear friend,
The political unrest in my country (PHILIPPINES), necessitated this email,
though this approach appears desperate, difficulties encountered in efforts to
establish a business abroad also necessitate this search for someone to assist
me I need your services in a confidential matter regarding money out of a
family beneficiary deposit for investment in your country and this requires a
private arrangement.
You will receive these funds under legal claims; all legal documents will be
carefully worked out
to ensure a risky free transfer, our family trustee have secretly
protected the
deposit, you are to assist us to
lay claims of the funds with the aid of all legal documents that will be
forwarded to you as time goes on. From past experiences, many people I had
regarded as close friends and relatives capitalized on my family's travail to
run away with my money. In order to avert this negative development, I in
conjunction with my son now seek your permission to allow us do a CHANGE OF
OWNERSHIP/REASSIGNMENT OF CREDIT of stated funds from the holding company to
your name, so that the funds would be released to you as the BENEFICIARY (on
behalf of me and my family).
I am willing to pay a generous management fee as well as appreciation as soon
as this transaction is
completed.
All correspondences will be via email, for now. The funds in question
are quite
large. I will expect a straight answer from you indicating your interest to
assist my family.
PLEASE INDICATE YOUR INTEREST BY RESPONDING TO MY EMAIL ADDRESS WITH THE
FOLLOWING INFO.
Your full name and address
Your telephone/fax numbers.
Once I receive this information, my son with the family trustee will prepare
the necessary documents that will put you in place as the new owner of the
funds. The money will then be released to your custody by the Holding Company.
Awaiting your swift response.
Luisa Estrada
