Subject: Important Notification: Contact FedEx Company Immediately!

Hello! I have been waiting for you since to contact me for your Confirmed Bank Draft of $800.000.00 United States Dollars, but I did not hear from you since that time. Then I went and deposited the Draft with FEDEX EXPRESS DELIVERY, West Africa, I traveled out of the country for a Months Course and I will not come back till end of October. What you have to do now is to contact the FEDEX EXPRESS DELIVERY as soon as possible to know when they will deliver your package to you because of the expiring date. For your information,I have paid for the delivering Charges, 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. Again, I would havepaid for the security keeping fee but they said no because they don't know when you will contact them and in case of demurrage. You have to contact the FEDEX EXPRESS INTERNATIONAL with the following information's: First name: Last Name: Telephone: Nationality: Age: Occupation: Dispatch Director: Professor Desmond Campbel Email Address: fedex.service388@gmail.com You are advice to contact them as soon as you receive this mail to avoid any further delay and remember to pay them their Security Keeping fee of $200.00 US Dollars for their immediate action.You should also let me know through email as soon as you receive your Draft. Yours Faithfully, Mrs.Mary Jone

Another Email Scam, Fraud, Phish atempt

James Hoods
Operating Officer,
Coutts & Co, Private Banking.
London, United Kingdom.

Greetings,

I am contacting you regarding the estate of a deceased client with similar
last name and an investment of (Ten Million Five Hundred Thousand Pounds
Sterling) placed under our banks management 2years ago.

I would respectfully request that you keep the contents of this mail
confidential and respect the integrity of the information you come by as a
result of this mail. I am contacting you independently and no one is
informed of this communication.

In mid 2007, my client asked that the portfolio he has with us be liquidated
because he needed to make an urgent investment requiring cash payments here
in the United Kingdom. He directed that I liquidate the funds and deposit it
with a security firm. I informed him that Coutts & Co would have to make
special arrangements to have this done and in order not to circumvent due
process, the bank would have to make a 9.5 % deduction from the funds to
cater for banking and statutory charges. He complained about the charges but
later came around when I explained to him the complexities of the task he
was asking of us. Cash movement across boarders has become especially strict
since the incidents of 9/11. I contacted my affiliate and made the funds
available to the security firm. I undertook all the processes and made sure
I followed his precise instructions to the letter and had the funds
deposited with the security firm.

The Security Firm is a specialist private firm that accepts deposits from
high net worth individuals and blue chip corporations that handle valuable
products or undertake transactions that need immediate access to cash. This
small and highly private organization is familiar especially to the highly
placed and well-connected organizations. In line with his instructions, the
money was deposited with the security firm.

However Security firm got in touch with us last year that this money has not
been claimed. On further enquiries we found out that my client died of a
heart attack in Cannes, South of France, which means he died intestate. He
has no next of kin.

What I propose is that since I have exclusive access to his file and also
because you bear the same last name, you will be made the next of kin to
these funds. On verification, which will be the details I make available to
my bank, my bank will instruct the security company to release the funds to
you.

You do not have to have known him. I know this might be a bit heavy for you
but please trust me on this. For all your troubles I propose that we split
the money in half 50/50. In the banking circle this happens every time. The
other option is that the money will revert back to the state.
Nobody is getting hurt; this is a lifetime opportunity for us. I hold the
KEY to these funds, and as a British National we see so much cash and funds
being reverted to the government. I would want us to keep communication for
now strictly by email.

Please, again, note I am a family man; I have a wife and children. I send
you this mail not without a measure of fear as to t the consequences, but I
know within me that nothing ventured is nothing gained and that success and
riches never come easy or on a platter of gold. This is the one truth I have
learned from my private banking clients. Do not betray my confidence. If we
can be of one accord, we should act swiftly on this.

Please get back to me immediately.

I await your response.

James Hoods.
