PLEASE PASS THIS INFORMATION ON
THE RECENT TRAGEDY OF A YOUNG WOMAN BEING KIDNAPPED AND
EVENTUALLY KILLED; AFTER SHE HAD REPEATEDLY GIVEN THE KIDNAPPER A WRONG
PIN TO HER ATM CARD. IF SHE KNEW THE METHOD BELOW, SHE COULD
HAVE BEEN SAVED. SO I THINK IT IS IMPORTANT ENOUGH TO
LET YOU KNOW.
IF YOU SHOULD EVER BE FORCED BY A ROBBER TO WITHDRAW MONEY FROM
AN ATM MACHINE, YOU CAN NOTIFY THE POLICE BY ENTERING YOUR PIN
# IN REVERSE.
FOR EXAMPLE IF YOUR PIN NUMBER IS 1234 THEN YOU WOULD PUT IN
4321.
THE ATM RECOGNIZES THAT YOUR PIN NUMBER IS BACKWARDS FROM THE
ATM CARD YOU PLACED IN THE MACHINE. THE MACHINE WILL STILL GIVE
YOU THE MONEY YOU REQUESTED, BUT UNKNOWN TO THE ROBBER, THE
POLICE WILL BE IMMEDIATELY DISPATCHED TO HELP YOU.
THIS INFORMATION WAS RECENTLY BROADCAST ON FOX TV AND IT STATES
THAT IT IS SELDOM USED BECAUSE PEOPLE DON’T KNOW IT EXISTS.
PLEASE PASS THIS ALONG.

LITTLE GIRL ON A PLANE
A politician was seated next to a little girl on an airplane so he
turned to her and said, “Do you want to talk? Flights go quicker if
you strike up a conversation with your fellow passenger.”
total stranger, “What would you want to talk about?”
“OK,” she said. “Those could be interesting topics, but let me ask you a
question first. A horse, a cow, and a deer all eat the same stuff –
grass. Yet a deer excretes little pellets, while a cow turns out a flat
patty, but a horse produces clumps. Why do you suppose that is?”
The legislator, visibly surprised by the little girl’s intelligence,
thinks about it and says, “Hmmm, I have no idea.”
To which the little girl replies, “Do you really feel qualified to
discuss global warming, universal health care, or the economy, when you don’t
know shit?”
And then she went back to reading her book
I have read about these Usama scams
I have read that scammers and malware would use the death of Bin Laden to advance their agenda. I have a feeling this is one of them.

No thanks Emily
My Dear,
I am sure this mail would be coming to you as a surprise since we have never met before and you would also be
asking why I have decided to chose you amongst the numerous internet users in the world, precisely I cannot say
why I have chosen you but do not be worried for I saw your profile on the Internet, which has made me accomplish
my request. May the almighty God bless and see you through with this mission if you can carefully read and digest
the message below.
Before I move further, permit me to give you a little of my biography, I am Mother Emilly Olivier, 87 Years old
woman and the wife of Late Sir Jackman Olivier who died in a Plane crash on Monday the 7th of September 1998 GMT
14:22 UK while they were flying from New York to Geneva. Please see site below for more information.
http://www.cnn.com/WORLD/9809/swissair.victims.list/index.html
After the death of my husband I became the Head of his investment and now that I am old and weak I have decided to
spend the rest of my life with my family and loved ones whom I never had time for during the course of my business
life, but before the death of my husband we had a plan to use the last days of our lives to donate half of what we
have worked for to the less privilege and charity homes and the other half for ourselves, family members and close
friends, and it is so unfortunate that my husband is not alive today to do this with me and I am very weak and old
now, hence I have decided to do this philanthropic work on behalf of my late husband and I.
Presently, I have willed out almost half of our assets to several charity homes and to some of the less privilege
in different countries. Despite the agreement between my late husband and I to give aid to the deprived, we also
agreed to render support to an individual we have not meet before in life due to the fact when we were still young
in life we receive an anonymous help from an individual we did not know and which we have not being able to know
till date, the impact we got from such gesture made us to do same.
I am sorry to inform you that you will never have the chance to know me because I have just concluded the
assignment which my husband and I have agreed upon before his sudden death and you happened to be the beneficiary
of our last WILL, irrespective of your previous financial status, hence I need you to do me a favor by accepting
our offer that will cost you nothing.
I have presently deposited a Cheque in the sum of £360, 000.00 British Pounds with FAST WAY COURIERS EXPRESS to
deliver to you, what you have to do now is to contact them as soon as possible to know when they will deliver your
package to you because of the expiring date.
I only made the deposit with your EMAIL ADDRESS and SECURITY KEEPING CODE (SCT/0433/F) because I do not know your
name and the address you would want to receive the parcel with. I couldn\’t find them on net while browsing your
profile if not I would have given it to them for immediate and fast delivery of this parcel to you.
For your information, I have paid for the delivering Charge, Insurance Premium and Clearance Certificate Fee of
the cheque showing that it is not a Drug Money or meant to sponsor Terrorist attack in your Country.
You have to contact the FAST WAY COURIERS EXPRESS now for the delivery of the cheque with this information bellow;
CONTACT PERSON: Mr. George Greg
Email Address:georgegreg@hotmail.co.uk
Telephone: Tel: +447024054918
Again, you are not to pay for the delivering Charge, the Insurance premium and the Clearance Certificate Fee of
the Cheque because I have already paid for them, the only money you are expected to pay is 165 British Pounds for
the security keeping of the cheque so far.
I would have paid the fee but the company insisted that I should not because they don\’t know when you will be
contacting them and to avoid demurrage or further cost.
You are to reconfirm the below information to them to avoid any mistake on the Delivery.
Postal address;
Full Names:
Direct telephone number;
Below is the security keeping code: (SCT/0433/F) of the draft, you are to also present it to them for verification
before delivery.
Let me repeat again, try to contact them as soon as you receive this mail to avoid any further delay and remember
to ask them to provide you with the method they wish to use in receiving their security keeping fee of 165 British
Pounds for their immediate action.
Note: Please I do not want you to thank me or my husband all I need you to do is, When you get this fund, use ONLY
£110,000.00 British Pounds (One hundred and Ten thousand British pounds) for your effort and USE THE REST OF THIS
FUND FOR CHARITY PORPOSE IN THE WAY IT WILL PLEASE HUMANITY.
Yours Faithfully
Mrs. Emilly Olivier Jackman

Another twist on the traditional scam. These scammers never give up. You should find someone else, not me.
I AM MRS JULIAN KONE
BILL AND EXCHANGE MANAGER.
BANK OF AFRICA (BOA)
OUAGADOUGOU , BURKINA FASO .
Dear Friend.
CONFIDENTIAL
I will like you to help me, in receiving of this fund into your Bank Account .However; it’s just my urgent need for foreign partner that made me to contact you for this transaction. I am the manager of bill and exchange at the foreign remittance Department of BANK OF AFRICA (B.O.A) here in Ouagadougou , Burkina Faso. In my department we discovered an abandoned sum of (US$27.2 Million dollars) in an account that belongs to one of our foreign Customer (MR. PAUL LOUIS from Paris, France) who died along with His entire family in July 2003 in a plane crash.
I am afraid if this money stays in our bank without claim for long period of time, our government will step in because
The Banking laws here does not allow such huge amount of money to stay
Dormant for more than 9years. And you will be receiving this money into your Bank account within 10 or 14 banking days.
The Banking law and guideline here stipulates that if such money remained unclaimed after Eight years an above, the money will be transferred into the Bank treasury as unclaimed fund. I agree that 30% of this money will be for you as foreign partner in respect to the provision of a foreign account, and while 70%would be for me.
If you agree to my business proposal, further details of the transfer will be forwarded to you as soon as I receive your return mail. Make sure you keep this transaction as your top secret and make it confidential till we receive the fund into the account that you will provide to the Bank. Don’t disclose it to any body, because the secrecy of this transaction is as well as the success of it, have a great day.
Place contact me immediately
Yours faithfully.

Here is a new email I recently received stating that I

potential scam

Graduate presently serving in the Military with the
82nd Air Borne Division Peace keeping force in Baghdad, Iraq.
I really need your help in assisting me with the safe
keeping of two military trunk boxes which has just
arrived the USA from the UK, and it also has your name
and address as the legal beneficiary to the boxes.
You can view the link below for more info,
