3. Henson,

   I can’t be 100% sure, but these are typically scams. Legally, the only advice I could give you is to contact your local authorities and give them all of the information. They should be able to help, or at least point you in the right direction. But I would NOT send them any more money until you know for sure. Good luck.

13. The “From” address can be spoofed to make it look real. If you read it carefully, they have you contacting that Kelvin guy at the @dailycarnage.com address. This is a scam.

    By manunkind on Sep 17, 2009

14. People there are no such thing as millions of dollars being held for you in an over sea’s account. Look at the address they provide yahoo, ymail, gmail ect… These are private email accounts not legit firms or oganizations. I just received one of those scams plus a lot more, but I know better to even believe that I have millions of dollars in an account that’s waiting for my personal info over seas. If these offers end up in your spam folder that’s because they are personal accounts that usually are scams or even viruses. Look at their address, grammar, and spelling these tips will help.

    By Robert on Oct 1, 2009

15. I am also looking for the FBI email address to forward the emails I receive. Sometimes I receive more then ten a day.
    But I have yet to find an email address where I sent these emails to. If anyone can help. I would be greatful. Thanks for your time.

18. C’mon, guys. You all know if it is too good to be true, it probably is a scam. I get these e-mails too. My sister is a banker, and she sees people send their money out to these scammers western union after depositing a false check in their checking account, and their money is gone. Most good banks now can screen bad checks out, but not all banks care. When you send money western union, it is GONE. When you cash a bad check and it is found out, even if you have already spent all or some of the money, it is gone, and you have to pay back what you spent. Please, please, please do not take the short path to easy money because it will cost you more very shortly after. There is nothing wrong with working for your money.
