Nigerian Scam: Spain gets into the act
Wow, must be my lucky day to get two of these in a row. This one’s semi-original, but more of the same:
Sphere: Related ContentI am Mr B Marshall, Senior Staff, with a Bank here in Madrid- Spain. I got your contact while searching for a reliable someone to contact for this transaction in regards to a business transfer for a huge sum of money in a dormant account. I need your assistance to transfer to overseas Nine Million, Five Hundred and Fifty Thousand United States Dollars Only (US$9,550.000.00). I am seeking your humble assistance to provide either an existing bank account or set up a new Bank account to receive this fund, even an empty account can serve this purpose, or you help to seek an honest and, reliable businessman who can assist us. Though I know that a transaction of this magnitude will make any one apprehensive and worried, but I am assuring you that this transaction is being handled by me and my colleagues, who are also departmental heads in the same bank. During the course of our audit ing we discovered a floating fund in a domiciliary account opened in the bank in 2000 and since 2004 nobody has operated on this account, after going through some old files in the records we discovered that the owner of the account who is a foreigner died in Madrid Bombing of 11th of March 2004, without any traceable next of kin hence the dormant nature of the account and if nobody come to claim this funds it will be re- channel to government coffers as unclaimed funds. If this proposal is acceptable by you, do not take undue advantage of th e trust I have bestowed in you, I await your swift response via my personal mail : (marshall22b@gmail.com) Mr. B MARSHALL

I get these scammer e-mails in my mail every day.
Every once in a while, one strikes me as funny because of the audacity, or the name of the person, or the spelling… Anyway, I started writing back to these people just to poke fun at them, but in a way that sounds like I am falling for the scam.
You might get a kick out of reading my responses (sometimes the scammers even write back). I post them with the original names and e-mail Subject lines (to be searchable, in hopes of alerting other potential victims) at a blog I created just for my sarcastic responses, called Scam and Eggs.
That’s a great idea — and I love your site. Thanks for posting.
Yeah this Scammers can be pretty annoying…
BTW, there is a very cool interview with one of these guys: http://blog.oliver-gassner.de/archives/3257-Interview-with-a-Nigeria-Spammer.html
