Urgent Assistance Needed
Mr James thinks it will come as a surprise to hear that he works for a bank in Nigeria and needs my assistance to get his sticky mitts on $10m. How do I tell him that it isn’t a surprise. He’s about the fourth person to tell me that this week. Do you suppose they have a lot of spare money at the Central Bank of Nigeria, just waiting for their employees to give away? No. Neither do I.
Mr James is a scammer. He doesn’t want to give you money, he wants to take it away from you. Delete the email and don’t reply.
