    It seems that they have come to the final point of scamming you. When you pay $400, they will vanish into thin air without any trace.

    i recieve these types of emails every month from different countries but they are all fake
    Once i even tried to contact thm for the price money thn i came to know that they just are doing fake things to increase their income and loot people

    Ithink these people should be caught immediately as these could harm internet and internet users in future very badly

    Cops pls have a look to this thread

    Well he did make a lot of people waste their time replying to his junk!!

    I hate spammers... But I wonder, anybody know how much they get from that? I mean if so many people do it I guess it works somehow...

    I get this type of offer a lot. But once I talked to the scammer. I replied, I’m so excited to win this amount of money. Now what I’ve to do? He said me to pay several hundred dollars for security keeping fee or something like this and said to contact to a courier company named rocket express. I replied, “I’m a poor man, not possible to manage that amount. I’m giving you the offer, pls pay my security keeping fee, keep 50% of my winning price money and send me the rest amount.”
    The scammer gone forever. Never ever replied.

    There was a guy recently that had lost a lot of money from a Nigerian scam, funny is that he had some of his family into giving him the money thinking it was some sort of investment with an easy return.

    Personally anyone that gets rip-off from this, deserves to get conned...greed is the cause, ignorance is the reason.
