Some scammers are now setting up fake websites and sending scam letters by post to lend their scams a veneer of authenticity. One popular scam, for example, involves sending a letter explaining to the letter recipient that they have inherited a sum of money from a long-lost relative who passed away in the 2004 tsunami. The letter looks somewhat authentic and if the letter recipient Googles the name of the law firm the letter was allegedly sent from, they are directed to a legitimate-looking website that appears to be from an actual law firm. However, a whois search shows that the website was established a few months ago by a popular scammer operating out of Nigeria.

Inheritances sometimes are distributed to long-lost relatives, but it’s rare. If you receive such a letter, check the attorney’s name online and check the origin of the website. If you are not sure whether the letter is legitimate, take it to a qualified attorney of your choosing.

Attn:

I have been waiting for you since to contact me for your Confirmable Bank Draft of ($2,500,000.00 )Two Million Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars, but I did not hear from you since for a couple of weeks now. Then I went to the bank to confirm if the draft has expired or getting near to expire and Dr.Wilson the Director Bank of Africa told me that before the draft will get to your hand that it will expire. So I told him to cash the $2.5m UNITED STATES DOLLARS to cash payment to avoid losing this funds under expiration as I will be out of the country for 3 Months Course and I will not come back till ending of December 2009. What you have to do now is to contact FEDEX COURIER SERVICES as soon as possible to know when they will deliver your Consignment to you because of the expiring date. For your information, I have paid for the delivering Charge, Insurance premium. 

The only money you will send to the FEDEX COURIER SERVICES to deliver your Consignment direct to your postal Address in your country is ($55.00 US) being Security Keeping Fee of t he Courier Company so far. Again, don’t be deceived by any body to pay any other money except $55.00 US Dollars. I would have paid that but they said no because they don’t know when you will contact them and in case of demurrage. 

You have to contact FEDEX COURIER SERVICES now for the delivery of your fund package with bellow information;

Finally, make sure that you reconfirm your Postal address and Direct telephone number to them again to avoid any mistake on the Delivery and ask them to give you the tracking number to enable you track your package over there and know when it will get to your address. 
Let me repeat again, try to contact them as soon as you receive this mail to avoid any further delay and remember to pay them their Security Keeping fee of $55.00 US Dollars for their immediate action. 

Note this. The FEDEX COURIER SERVICES don’t know the contents of the
Box. I registered it as a BOX of Africa cloths. They did not know the contents were money. This is to avoid delaying of the BOX. Don’t let them know that the box contents money ok.

I am waiting for your urgent response.
