Miss Young

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.

Greetings Dear!

Here write Mrs Gloria Marvin, I have been waiting for you since to contact me for your
Confirmable Bank Draft of $1,000.000.00 USD (One Million US Dollars), but I did not hear
from you since that time. Then i went ahead and deposited the Draft with FEDEX COURIER
SERVICE,West Africa, I traveled out of the country for a 3 Months Course and I will not
come back till end of December 2008.

What you have to do now is to contact the FEDEX COURIER SERVICE as soon as possible to
know when they will deliver your package to you because of the expiring date. For your
information, I have paid for the delivering Charge, Insurance premium and Clearance
Certificate Fee of the Cheque (check).

The only money you will send to the FEDEX COURIER SERVICE to deliver your Draft direct
to your postal Address in your country is ($150 US) Dollars only,being Security Keeping
Fee of the Courier Company so far. Again, don't be deceived by anybody to pay any other
money except $150 US Dollars.

I would have paid that but they said no because they don't know when you will contact
them and in case of demurrage. You have to contact the FEDEX COURIER SERVICE now for the
delivery of your Draft through this information below:

Contact Person: Mr. Williams Perry
Email Address: fedexdept.consult@yahoo.com.hk
Telephone: +234-708-181-1868
+234-805-218-0029

Send your information to them:
*********************************
Full Names/
Age/
Postal or Delivery Address/
Mobile Number/
*********************************

Finally, make sure that you reconfirm your Postal address and Direct telephone number to
them again to avoid any mistake on the Delivery and ask them to give you the tracking
number to enable you track your package over there and know when it will get to your
address.

Let me repeat again, try to contact them as soon as you receive this mail to avoid any
further delay and remember to pay them their Security Keeping fee of $150 US Dollars for
their immediate action. You should also let me know through email as soon as you receive
your
Draft.

Yours Faithfully,
Mrs Gloria Marvin.
