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.

Subject: Approved Draft for you

Dear Friend,
It is my pleasure to reach you after our unsuccessful attempt on our
business transaction. Well, I just want to use this medium to thank you
very much for your earlier assistance to help me in receiving the funds,
without any positive outcome.
I am happy to inform you that I have succeeded in receiving the funds
with the help of a new partner from South America Mr. Alfredo Gomez
Castillo. Everything was perfectly done because we strike a deal wit h
one of the Lady Accountant who works with the Federal Ministry of
Finance (FMF), and she rendered a tremendous help to us. My new partner
initiated this idea and everything worked out successfully.
In appreciation of your earlier assistance to me in receiving the funds,
I have decided to compensate you with the sum of $1,000,000.00(One Million United States Dollars) in a Cashier's cheque. This is from my
own share. I did this simply to show appreciation to you for your kind
support and assistance even though we could not succeed due to some
unforseen circumstances and reason.
Presently, I am in South Korea for investment project with my own share
under the advice of my partner. Meanwhile, I didn't forget your past
efforts and attempts to assist me in transferring this funds despite the
fact that we could not succeed. I will be sending you e-mail from time
to time to know if you have received your share or not.
In the light of the above, you are therefore, to contact my personal
assistant Mr.Kelechi Michael on my former telephone line and do send him
your contact address where you want the draft to be sent to you.
Phone:+234-80-6333-0559
E-mail address: kelmichael_20007@yahoo.com
Contact Person:Mr.Kelechi Michael
Please do let me know immediately you receive it so that we can share
the joy/happiness together after all the suffering at that time. In the
moment, I am very busy here in capital city of South Korea because of
the investment projects, which the new partner and I are having at hand.
So feel free to get in touch with him to send the cheque to you without
any delay.
With My Best Regards,
Dr/Mr.Charles Ego
