How nice. This particular email scam will make some think they have already been in contact with you. For those of us who don't always have the best of memories, this ploy MIGHT work. If I had a nickel for everyone of these I get, I'd be rich.

In light of someone hoping to receive $1,200,000.00 by just having to send $230.00, "being the security charges for duration the check has been in their

possession", some might think - "What's $230.00?. I'm getting $1.2 Million in return." Easy money, right? If you can't afford to lose $230.00, then don't jump on this. It is easy money, FOR THE GUY who send your money TO.

AGAIIN, REMEMBER, no legit firm or company uses GMAIL, YAHOO, HOTMAIL, LIVE- (FREE EMAIL ACCOUNTS) Here's the email:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I'm happy to inform you about my success in getting those funds

transferred under the co-operation of a new partner from Portugal.

Presently I'm in Portugal for investment projects with my own share

of the total sum.

It may interest you to note that I didn't forget your past efforts

and attempts to assist me in transferring the funds though you were

not able to see it through for whatever reasons. After due

consideration, I have decided to compensate you for your efforts.

I have issued a check of $1,200,000 for you and had to drop it with

Swift Express Services in Nigeria and you are to contact them with

the following information as stated below for re-affirmation and

to ensure a safe delivery.

Full Name: ...........................

Address: .............................

Phone Number: ........................

Note that the shipment fee and the insurance of the check as been

paid by me and the only fee you will be required to pay is $230

being the security charges for duration the check has been in their

possession. I would have made the payment but I do not know when

you will get in touch with them as the charges increases with the

amount of days they secure it. Endeavour you contact them immediately

before the security charge increases with days.

You are to contact them through the information as stated below

and note that the only fee you are to pay is the Security Charges

which is $230 as every other stable fees has been paid.
