Rob, Hope your response included your bank acct. # so they can direct deposit. That big of a paper check brings in all kinds of questions.

Good day from France.

It is my pleasure to communicate with you via this platform. Your positive response towards this very message is highly anticipated.

My name is Mr. Olivier Gabriel Balzac, a lawyer practicing here in France. I have previously sent you an email regarding a transaction of $13.5 Million left behind by my late client before his tragic death. However, I am reaching out to you once again because after going through your profile, I strongly believe that you will be in a better position to execute this business transaction with me.

If you are interested to proceed with me, kindly respond to me via my private email olivier@balzacavocte.com for more detail.

This transaction is 100% risk free and I look forward to your response.

Yours sincerely
Olivier Gabriel Balzac,,
Lawyer

Rob, it's 100% risk free! It says so right in the email. What are you waiting for!?.

[Rob S.]

I've responded. I'm a little disappointed in their improved language skills, though.

I like that last name Balzac. Sounds like he must reside next to beef jerky.

I like that last name Balzac. Sounds like he must reside next to beef jerky.

Or, he fancies him-self a comedic novelist. lol

[Rob S.]

Rob, it's 100% risk free!

Obviously. I'm wondering what "profile" of mine helped determine that I deserve the money. Was it the CB350 I used to own?

[Rob S.]

This transaction is 100% risk free and I look forward to your response.

Yours sincerely

Obviously risk free, because a lawyer would not risk getting disbarred. Funny thing is, in the 1970's I was friends with the son of a Nigerian prince at college. His name was Tunde. He called me "Robes" because I had a trophy inscribed to Rob S.

Balzac could be Anglicised to Ballsack, which puts him as a scrotvm.

ATTN: Beneficiary

I hope this correspondence is received with the urgency and expediency required.

I am Michael Smith, Head of the Committee on Federal Reserve Bank Affairs (“PaymentsCo”), New York, currently assigned to your payment. Through our global messaging system, the FED's Intelligence Monitoring Network was able to identify a distressed fund transfer in your favor
Following a comprehensive investigation, the network discovered suspicious activities in the transaction data, indicating that the remitting bank is experiencing some man-made difficulties in completing the transfer.

To regulate the system and identify officials
involved in this unethical payment procedure, all financial transactions with the remitting bank have been suspended. You are advised to stop communication with them because they will no longer be able to handle the transfer.

The Federal Reserve (“PaymentsCo”) has the "Transfer Authority" to expedite high-value and time-critical interbank transfer payments. We will now finalize this transaction without unnecessary cost and guarantee your payment in a short while.

I have tried to call, but your phone number is not available. I will advise you to contact me immediately to prevent potential fraud.

Yours faithfully,
Michael Smith

[Rob S.]

Has anyone had any dealings with Michael Smith? Is he trustworthy?

[Grimly]

Has anyone had any dealings with Michael Smith? Is he trustworthy?

Sure thing, he's been occupied with transferring untold millions to me from my dead uncle, that I never knew I had.
So far it's only cost me a few thousand to deal with the pesky paperwork, but I expect results Real Soon Now.
It's a small world.

[rphillips]

Wondering if this Michael Smith guy might have been kin to that Ed McMahon feller? Both getting big money for folks.

  Hi dear,
  
  I hope this email finds you well. I am writing to discuss a business deal I have been considering, which amounts to $27.6 million. After careful evaluation, I believe it would be most equitable to share the funds equally, resulting in a 50% distribution for each party.
  
  My proposal includes a detailed outline of the business idea, potential mutual benefits. I am certain that this partnership will be lucrative and successful.
  
  I would appreciate the opportunity to tell you more about this proposal further at your earliest respond.
  
  Looking forward to your positive response.
  
  Best regards,
  Peggy.

I have a older neighbor down the block he's been scammed by two women locally and one through some kind of e-mail ? Long distance B.S.

First women was about 20 years younger than he was, got him to give her money to start some little drive through eating convenient store.

After a while he found out she was pocketing all kinds of money, not using it for what she should have , everything was in his name cause she didn't have nothing going for herself, said he recovered from it but stiff cant figure out where 35,000 dissappear to.

That was first local, then some kind of social media woman scam.

The third time,

Some friend and neighbor of his tried to intervene when he started sending money to some
women in new jersey who needed money to get out of her current situation and come to be with him .

He got mad, actually got into pretty good with the two that tried to smart him up.

But this last time, the third time, the woman actually showed , I was shocked !

Figured she use him and split, but she's been around for about five years now!

The old man is in bad shape health wise, last year he's really gone down hill. So in a way it has been a good thing cause she's taking good care of him and seems legitimate in her actions .
