Dubious E-mails to Avoid (4)

We have received hundreds of unsolicited e-mails that are intended to scam unsuspecting victims. Many of these letters are posted under Nigerian 419 scam letters. However, we have received many other unsolicited e-mails that lack all the details found in my scam letter archive, yet appear suspicious and should be avoided and ignored. The traits of these letters generally are as follows:

1) an unsolicited e-mail (likely one of thousands sent out)

2) from a complete stranger

3) from some other country (so you cannot locate or prosecute them after they scam you)

4) who just happens to have a very rewarding opportunity or job available for you (no interview needed since the opportunity is simply to lure you in) or wants you to rescue them from poverty or harm

5) urgency and confidentiality are often requested (they want you to act impulsively and don't want you to be able to learn that they are trying to scam you)

6) once they are contacted, they will take all necessary steps to reassure you that what they are offering is legitimate. They will establish phone communications with you. They may have one or more partners also try to reassure you. Many have fake identities, fake passports, fake government documents, fake bank documents, fake legal documents, forged checks all at their disposal. They often give you a forged check that will clear your bank only to be bounced several weeks later.

We have included several recent emails that meet several of the criteria listed above and you are strongly urged to ignore and avoid responding to e-mails that are similar to these:
