Would you fall for a scam like this?

Received in my email today.

Sent to an "unlisted' e-mail accound. From OVER-DUE PAYMENT <[email protected]>

Subject: Our Ref: UNO/CITIBANK LONDON UK CODE:511 (PAYMENT VALUED $8,300,000M)

I thought I received it in error. With Ref.Nos., Password, PIN, etc. $8.3mil could be refunded to me. Wah!

But what is the Director of Intl. Remmittance, Citibank London doing with a yahoo.hk email account? Ha ha ha. and who would trust an email account like the one above.

This is not a lottery scam. It is a payment advice. Lottery scam is now quite well known.

This scam is designed to trick you into believing the that UN made an error and sent you the email by mistake. It is addressed to "unlisted email" not your email.

You think it is a confidential email, you get all the information, such as Release Code, Allocation Number, Password, PIN, so you might want to try to con them. It is to con you.

Few years ago I installed a Taiwanese soft ware with my CD writer. I registered giving my email address. Big mistake. Now my email address is still circulating the world, although the spam is getting less, about 6 to 8 daily, penis enlarger, viagra, office furniture, stock tips, etc...

Hwaimeng SG

i would pretend to fall for the trick and let the gal from china call me

there once i play with her and she didnt reliase it till upo to the mode she keep asking me to sent $4000 admin charges to their Hong Kong bank, i just keep delaying this until she got mad and gave up

whahahah its was fun speaking to her, and wasting her time on me when all along i was making fun of her.

domonkassyu SG

BadzMaro SG

hahha.. u can always try.

But anything asking about ur pin number and personal bank details u can hang up. lol

Forbiddensinner SG

is it 8.3m or 8300.000m??damn big diff...

Here is where you will realise another thing is wrong.

Sometimes they type it as $8 300 000 M, sometimes they type it as $8.3M.

This inconsistency shows that the email cannot possibly be real.

Ok. I got something like this 15 years ago and it went into a folder called "junk".

I wonder how many phishing mails do they need to send out to get 1 or 2 replies.
