Around 15 years ago, I use to receive many scam emails on a daily basis. They are generally referred to as Nigerian Scam emails because many originated from that country. Refer to Advance-fee scam
One time I added up all the money that these scams propertied that I was eligible for and it added up to hundreds of billions of dollars. It falls in line with the old saying "There's a sucker is born every minute." Unfortunately many of those scammed out of thousands of dollars were the elderly. They came from a far distant time when "A person's word was their bond."
SO BEWARE!! !
Thanks for the heads up Fnord.

A very unique plan. As Dr. Paul Thompson wrote, "This is the very best paper on the virus I have ever seen."
I like the FedEx ones because they are sent by an email address that is something like zohngeic@blappork.com
I get more scam phone calls then I get scam emails and both my gmail and live accounts are good at filtering spam.
I once got a phony "you won publishers clearing house" phone call,they wanted $1000 before I could collect the prize.I reported them and there phone number to the police.

Western Union has put a lot of information and warnings on their website, about the types of scams people use to prey on their victims, using their services.
I believe certain people have scams running on many forums at the one time, using the same M.O.
I've read posts from years ago, where the Poster repeatedly claims that doctors have told them, they only have months to live/are terminal, as a way to guilt people into whatever it is they want.
Yet, years later, they are *still around, very much alive? ? (And presumably ok) and still running their scams.
Posting on forums and asking fellow Members for money, and more recently, asking for the personal email addresses of other members. Possibly another Advance Fee or Phishing Scam? Or to sell the email addresses?
Oh yes. I've watched him before. He is funny!
