just recieved this email of sum scammer ,i think il have some fun and play along ....

Attention Please, I am Mr.John Mandela am Head of Internal Audit Banque Commercial bank, South Africa, working as part of a bigger team that covers the entire African region. An investor (name with-held) died without naming any next of kin to his fund in my bank. The amount is $5.7M and banking regulation/legislation in South Africa demands that I should notify the fiscal authorities after three years. The above set of facts underscores my reason to seek your permission to have you stand in as the next of kin to the deceased. This fund will be approved and released in your favour as the next of kin if only you will adhere to my instruction and cooperate with me in one accord. I have all the legal and banking details of the deceased client that will facilitate our putting you forward as the claimant/beneficiary of the funds and ultimately transfer of the $5.7M plus interest to any bank account nominated by you.I am prepared to compensate you with a 35% share of the total funds for your efforts. The final details will be given upon receipt an affirmation of your desire to participate. Please contact me immediately whether or not you are interested in this proposal. If you are not, it will enable me scout for another foreign partner to carry out this deal. But where you are interested, contact me immediately on email:johnmandela@inbox.comThank you, Mr.John Mandela

Just be careful Nicky - just answering an email can give them more information about yourself - it confirms that your email address is current for a start
 
Nicky be careful! Not sure if it's the same one but I regularly get a similar email. Usually goes into my spam folder. There are many different ones going around at the moment including one supposedly from paypal but it isn't.

Treat them with caution.
 
dont worry folks il be carfull :huggles: hes a keen bugger il give him that didnt have to wait long for a replie ............

Dear Nicola,

I wish to thank you for your reply. I want you to know that there is no risk involved in this transaction so please have no fear. All that I will want fro you is to follow my instructions and this money will be transferred to you as the Next of Kin. The name of this my late client is

Mr. Saul Banbars and he died without naming any Next of kin in all the deposit papers with my bank, so all that I want you to do is to stand in as the Next of kin. I am ready to give you 35% of the total sum of US$5.7 million for your assistance.

Once again I thank you and promise you that you have nothing to worry about as I have made good plans for this fund to be transferred abroad without any problem. Please write back to me and I will start making the plans immediately. Also please I will like you to keep this transaction confidential because I am still in the employment of the bank and if it’s leaked I may lose my job. All I need from you now is the following and we will start the process.

1. Your full name and address.

2. Your contact telephone and fax number.

3. Your age and occupation.

Once I receive this information i will release more informations and documents that will help us claim this fund. This is my private number so do call me anything you feel, +27 72293 4553

Yours faithfully

John Mandela.
