only daughter of my late parents

reputable businness magnate-(a cocoa merchant)who
operated in the capital of Ivory coast during his days
It is sad to say that he passed away mysteriously in
France during one of his business trips abroad year
24th.November. 2003.Though his sudden death was linked
or rather suspected to hav been masterminded by an
uncle of his who travelled
with him at that time.But God knows the truth!

My late father deposted the sum of the Six
million,Three hundred thousand United State
Dollars.(USD$6.300,000) deposited in a suspence
account with one of the local banks here in
Abidjan,Ivory Coast in favour of me and i will lik
you to help me transfer this fund to your account.

My late mother died when i was 4 years old.Pleas
kindly help me to transfer my funds to your accoun and
also help me to come to your country to continu my
education where i stop.

Please kindly reply with your informations such as
telephone numbers and your banking details wher this
fund will be remit to.

waiting to receive your mail today.

Susan Seyed

Sorry for the long bs, but this isn't the first time I received these types of e-mails, all saying they have some rich *** family member and need a bank account to transfer the funds...has anyone else received these types of e-mails? I'm starting to think that someone or a group of people is trying to "hack" into the Forums's system to gather everyones personal info, etc...maybe the guys from the Gixxer Forums?! Just playing. But seriouslly, just watch out what kind of personal info you give to other members (private e-mails, phone #'s, bank info...etc). Just wanted to give everyone the heads up. Sorry for the long *** message, I didn't know how to make a link for that.

Sorry guys, but as time goes on... spam will happen. I did ban the IP address for this guy so he'll have to find a different location to continue his education.

LOL! You guys are just too damn funny! Seriouslly, that's like the 3rd-4th one I got like that. The first one was from this other guy whos father was suposed to of owned a coca plant farm, got indicted, went to prison and somehow he ended up with his drug money, lol...I mean seriouslly, are people dumb enough to think that someone would give them their bank account info? Hell, are people dumb enough to give them that info? lol, What would be interesting though, is to go to a bank that offers a "free checking/savings account", open it/them up, and see what happens, lol. Hey, it's an idea!
