Is this Email Spam Legal?

Well, this email spam has another story. The story goes to give strong proofs to the claims in the email spam, so the recipient could take a positive action, towards contacting the offer's holder.

Some spammers could be very clever to get first into this approach and to verify that the email address is correct. Some recipients who are looking for get rich quickly scams may respond to such offer without any hesitation.

But, when a person receives an offer like this he should think wisely before he leaps.

This is the spam message:

Attn: The President/CEO.

Dear Sir/Madam,

Please permit me to write you irrespective of the fact we have not met before. I got your contact through network online hence I decided to write you. I would be very interested in offering you a part-time paying job in which you could earn a lot. This is not a scam as in no time will I require you to send me your money.

Before I go further, I will like to give you a brief profile about myself. My name is Dr. xxxxxxxx, an American by nationality. I am 64 years age man married with 3 children (a lovely girl and 2 boys). Due to the nature of my work, I travel a lot. But my Family resides in United Kingdom. I just resigned my job as a research scientist for ARINI (Agricultural Research Institute of Northern Ireland) but I am still working as a freelance consultant for the institute which gives me very much time to do my own work which is basically a freelance researcher who could be employed by research institutes to do research projects anywhere in the world.

Presently, I have just been granted a funding to head a research project in the Amazon Regions of Brazil regarding rare and vulnerable plant species and this would be commencing very soon. This research program will be funded and sponsored by an American Sponsorer/Financier. But the only set back is that the American Sponsorer/Financier wants to make payments for the research into an American Equity Business/Home Line of Credit Account or Business Credit Card Account only.

It's a known fact that money in such forms can't be cashed outside the North America due to recent financial resolution and security. Getting an accountant over there or opening an account would have been my best choice but I have a deadline to meet and taking any of those choices would cost me time and a whole lot of other requirements, which I am not ready to deal with. This is where i need your assistance and service.

WHY I NEED YOUR CO-OPERATION:-

At this point, I will be glad if you could work with me as my representative in the North America. You will be working as my assistant in charge of receiving payment from my Sponsorer/Financier.. Since he would be making the payment into payable account only in the North America, the payments would be made directly to your provided Equity line of credit or Credit card account, and then forward via other available means at your bank to me. For this service, I agree to pay you 10% each of any amount you receive from the Sponsorer/Financier

JOB DESCRIPTION:-

1. Receive payment into your (Account) from My Sponsorer/Financier
2. Deduct 10%, which will be your percentage on Payment processed.
3. You will then Transfer the payments to me via any available means at your Bank.

HOW MUCH WILL YOU EARN:-

10% from each operation! For instance: you receive 10,000 USD via Account on my behalf. You will cash the payment and keep 10% to yourself before forwarding the remaining. At the beginning your commission will equal 10%, though later it will increase up to 12%. For the research and other projects, I am expecting about the sum of $1,400,000 in total from the Sponsorer/Financier (though the money may be sent in bits). You could make over $140,000 or more for the little time we will be working together.

ADVANTAGES:-

You do not have to go out to your present daily activity in order to engage in this Job (i.e. you can do this Work easily without Quiting or affecting your present Job). You will work dependently right from your home/office; this job is absolutely legal. You do not need any capital to start and none of your personal funds is needed).

REQUIREMENTS:-

35 years or older.
Legally capable.
Responsible,
Reliable and Trustworthy Able to check and respond to emails often.
Easy telephone access.

IS THIS LEGAL:-

Yes it is. As a matter of fact, my lawyer checked all legal provisions to know if there is any domestic or international law against businesses or deals in this manner. And he said it is allowed by all LAWS. So know that doing this work is safe and legitimate, I believe all is well understood. Mail me if you are interested immediately. My Direct Mobile Number: + (44) xxxxxxxxxx Email: (........@yahoo.co.uk) do send your personal contact numbers for easier communications.

I will be glad if my offer is accepted.

Thank you.

Chaotic Email Spam

There's an email spam which is relevant to this one below you can find if you search for "HSBC" on this blog to tie the thread of this kind of spam.

The story of this email spam goes this way: They first send the recipient information about his account in the "HSBC" bank. Then they'll follow that by this kind of email spam below to maintain their first claims.

They actually do this kind of spamming without having to consider if you have got an account at that bank or not. This is why they fail to trap you in their scams. But, they don't even think about this matter. They just keep sending these scams to people without having any conscience.

Enjoy this chaotic email spam's story and take care:

Goodday,

My name is Mr. Paul Lockett, I am a senior partner in the firm of Infinity Consultants "Private Investigators and Security Consultants". We are conducting a standard process investigation on behalf of "HSBC", the International Banking conglomerate.

This investigation involves a client who shares the same surname with you and also the circumstances surrounding investments made by this client at "HSBC", the Private Banking arm of HSBC.

The HSBC Private Banking client died in testate and nominated no successor in title over the investments made with the bank. I would respectfully request that you keep the contents of this mail private and respect the integrity of the information
you come by as a result of this mail.

I contact you independently of our investigation and no one is informed of this communication. I would like to intimate you with certain facts that I believe would be of interest to you.

You share similar details to the late fellow; I am prepared to place you in a position to instruct the firm to release the deposit to you as the closest surviving relation. Upon receipt of the deposit, I am prepared to share the money with you, that is, I will simply nominate you as the next of kin and have them release the deposit to you. We share the proceeds 50/50.

I would have gone ahead to ask the funds be released to me, but that would have drawn a straight line to me and my involvement in claiming the deposit. But on the other hand, you with the same very name as the depositor's would easily pass as the beneficiary with right to claim. I assure you that I could have the deposit released to you within few days.

I am aware of the consequences of this proposal. I ask that if you find no interest in this project that you should discard this mail. I ask that you do not be vindictive and destructive. If my offer is of no appeal to you, delete this message and forget I ever contacted you. Do not destroy my career because you do not approve of my proposal.

You may not know this but people like myself who have made tidy sums out of comparable situations run the whole private banking sector. I am not a criminal and what I do, I do not find against good conscience, this may be hard for you to understand, but the dynamics of my industry dictates that I make this move. Such opportunities only come ones in a lifetime.

I cannot let this chance pass me by, for once, I have found myself in total control of my destiny. These chances won't pass me by. I ask that you do not destroy my chance, if you will not work with me let me know and let me move on with my life but do not destroy me. I am a family man and this is an opportunity to provide them with new opportunities.

There is a reward for this project and it is a task well worth undertaking. I have evaluated the risks and the only risk I have here is from you refusing to work with me. I am the only one who knows of this situation, good fortune has blessed you with a name that has planted you into the center of relevance in my life. Lets share the blessing. If you find yourself able to work with me, contact me through my email account below. If you give me positive signals, I will initiate this process towards a conclusion.

I send you this mail not without a measure of fear as to what 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 plan a meeting soon.

Kind regards,
_____________

Well, the story says it all. It's written this way to convince the recipient although the spammer doesn't consider if this recipient has a bank account at "HSBC" or not: And that is why the rap fails.

Email Scam

Is it coincidence that this email spam and the next one come from a tiscali co uk emails accounts? Is it coincidence that the two email spams contain the same information?

What is so interesting in those two email spam is that this one tells me about a successful transfer that doesn't happen at all; and that I am part of it although I am the last person in the world to know this. It is just a fraud and scam.

Compensation For Your Past Efforts

Dear Colleague,

On a very happy note and bearing in mind the staunch commitment that you had put into the quest to see that the fund was transferred to you for claim as we had arranged but to no avail, I write to inform you that at last, the fund transfer had been a SUCCESS.

Since all our effort in conjunction with yours were met with various failures and disappointments after the other, there was an influential party from Britain that was approached on our behalf by a Finance & Management Supports Initiatives (a consulting firm); and with her (influential party) imputes, the Fund was paid out and I have collected
my own share.

Presently, I am in South Korea where, in partnership with a core investor in the Mining Sector of their economy, we are investing in the industry.

But, I am not oblivious of the fact that you did your best in that context, although, it seem that element of doubt crept in. You were not to blame, as there were many circumstances that would reflect such scepticism to any reasonable being.

For your sincere but unfruitful sacrifices, I pressurized the influential woman to concede some amount as COMPENSATION to you, for the resource that you imp lunged even the time and inconveniences.

The sum of US$800,000.00 was what she agreed to as your compensation value, and the sum was made in draft but, because of my appointment in South Korea and too, I could not get through to you since your number at any time indicated "not in use", I then handed it over to the Secretary of the Finance & Management Supports Initiatives, the consulting firm. His name is MR Denis Moussa and his email: (vicent_personal2008 at yahoo.fr)

The Secretary is very much informed by me about you and I instructed him to hand over the Draft you as soon as you contact him. I gave him the CODE ...., which you have to mention for identification.

Note that at times I will be in the site and the Internet does not work there. Only when I am in the city.

Yours Sincerely,
MR Denis Moussa
