GET BACK TO ME VERY URGENT!//READ ATTACHED MESSAGE AND GET BACK TO ME IMMEDIATELY

How do I know this is a scam?  I didn’t even have to open this email – the subject line all in bold, telling me is urgent was the giveaway.

This is a scammer – who has no intention of giving you money.  His only aim is to take your money by charging you fees.  Ignore him.

Hello Dear Friend,

My name is Mr.David Kofour. I am the regional manager of Standard Chartered Bank of Ghana Takoradi Branch in the western region of Ghana. I got your information on a recent bank conference with other East African countries held in Johannesburg the capital city of South Africa.

I write you this proposal in good faith, I am a man of peace. I have packaged a financial transaction that will benefit you and I,as the regional manager of the Standard Chartered Bank it is my duty to send in a financial report to my head office in the capital city Accra at the end of each business year.

On the course of the last year 2009 business report, I discovered that my branch in which I am the manager made Three Million Seven hundred and thirty thousand united state dollars ($3,730,000.00) which my head office arenot aware of and will never be aware of.

I have placed this funds on what we call ESCROW CALL ACCOUNT with no beneficiary. As an officer of this bank I cannot be directly connected to this money, so my aim of contacting you is to assist me receive this money in your bank account and get 35% of the total funds as commission.

There are practically no risks involved, it will be a bank-to-bank transfer, and all I need from you is to stand claim as the original depositor of these funds who made the deposit with my branch so that my head office can order the transfer to your designated bank account.

Thanking you in advance for your kind and urgent response, more so for keeping our proposal to your self.
