The typical nigerian scam with a complicated BS story involving Bank Of Africa, Burkina Faso-West Africa.

Last week a lot of permutations of a similar scam landed in my inbox, so I am posting them step by step.

This is clearly one of those, pls. delete the mail and do not be tempted to reply to it at all!

Delete this email and do not send them any of your personal details!

In general when you suspect the email could come from a scammer:

1. Do not reply, delete the e-mail immediately!

2. Never ever give any personal data, information out via e-mail to anybody!

3. Do not click on any embedded links in the mail!

4. Do not attempt to open any attached documents!

5. If you accidentally opened an attachment make sure you run a virus check and a spyware check on your computer immediately!

Here is the link to the best freeware we know.

Dear Friend,I know that this mail will come to you as a surprise as we have never met
before, but need not to worry as I am using the only secured and
confidential medium available to seek for your foreign assistance in a
business. I am contacting you independently of my investigation and no one
is informed of this communication.

I need your urgent assistance in transferring the sum of ($12.5 million
united state dollar.) immediately to your private account. The money has
been here in our Bank lying dormant for nine good years now without anybody
coming for the claim of it. I want to release the money to you as the
nearest person to our deceased customer (the account owner) who died along
with his supposed NEXT OF KIN since August 1997.

The Banking ethics here does not allow such money to stay more than 16
years, because the money will be recalled to the Bank treasury as unclaimed
fund. Upon receipt of your reply indicating your interest in this
transaction, I will send you full details on how the business will be
executed.

Please keep this proposal as a top secret and delete if you are not
interested.

Regards,

Mr Marouphe Abdullah Tanja.
Bank Of Africa, Burkina Faso-West Africa.
