Thought I might forward this email to the FBI that made it's way into my inbox. Notice the many grammatical errors.
You all know the scam. Nigerian in nature ,no doubt. It's been going around for a year or two now.

However I am truly sick of these MF'rs trying to take advantage of the under educated, ill advised, senior citizens, and other unknowing fellow Americans! :cussing:

The worse part is, there are so many people trying to find work right now. You could see how someone might become desperate enough to trust the email. And then they get screwed!
 
Yep. Looks like a scam, or a money laundering operation. I would report it and ask if the FBI has any feedback on it. They may already have a file on it.
 
Doubtful that the FBI has time to waste on scam emails. Imagine if everyone sent those to the FBI. Its up to you I guess, I just hit the delete button.

As do I. But if everyone was to do that. Which I'm sure 99.9% of us do.....are we not doing an injustice to those that have been scammed, by NOT providing enough info to the feds to try & stop this?
 
Going around for a year or two? I remember that crap popping up in Fidonet back in the late 80s. Hell I remember my parents laughing at those types of scams being mailed to our house back in the 70s.

I get dozens of those everyday and I honestly couldn't care less about those stupid enough to fall for it. If they don't lose their money that way, they'll find some other idiotic way to lose it.
 
dont bother, They probly wont be able to do anything, and hey, anyone that falls for that needs a life lesson IMO
 
I wouldn't bother the FBI but if you fill strongly enough about it; report it to the internet popo :thumbsup:
 
You know... Posting this thread with "FBI" in the title was probably just as good as reporting it to them. I'm just sayin'. :whistle:
