Mr Victor Koko Williams

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.

Good Day.

I'm happy to inform you about my success in getting the fund transferred to
a Swiss Account with the cooperation of a new partner from Paraguay who is
an international business man. Presently I'm in Paraguay for investment projects
With my own share of the total sum.

Meanwhile, I did not forget your past efforts and attempts to assist me in
transferring those funds despite that it failed us some how.

Now contact my secretary,
Her contact is: Name: Mrs. Charity Stan
Email Address: mrs_stancharity@myway.com

Ask her to send you the total $800.000.00 (Eight Hundred Thousand
US Dollars) that I kept for your compensation for all the past efforts and
attempts to assist me in this matter.

Also do use part of the money for philanthropist purposes for use in helping
the less privileged in your area. Especially at this festive season. Put a
smile on somebody face and let the world be better for it.

I appreciated your efforts at that time very much. So feel free and get in
touch with my secretary Mrs. Charity Stan and instruct her where to send the
amount to you.

Please do let me know immediately you receive it so that we can share the
joy after all the suffering at that time. In the moment, I am very busy here
because of the investment projects which me and the new partner I am
having at hand.

Finally, remember that I had forwarded instruction to my secretary on your
behalf to receive that money, so feel free to get in touch with Mrs. Charity Stan
and she will send the amount to you without any delay.

I beg you in the name of the most high to use at least 50% of the proceed to
put smile on the faces of the less privileged especially during this festive
season.
