Victims never receive this non-existent fortune but are tricked into sending their money to the criminals, who remain anonymous. They hide their real identity and location by using fake names and fake postal addresses as well as communicating via anonymous free email accounts and mobile phones.

Subject: GREY SOLUTIONS.
Dear sir,
There is a genuine need for the investment of a substantial amount in a
secure and stable economy around the world by my client. The investment aims
at tourism and real estate primarily, but will strongly consider any other
business area or offer that can guarantee outstanding fiscal yeilds. My name
is Sandra Harrison investment adviser/analyst with GREY SOLUTIONS,
Worldwide.
The investment fund is already tied down as receivables to a company for
services rendered to an African government in the year 2001, and will be
transferred to your individual/company account if we accept to work
together. You will only make a lawful change of the original name and bank
coordinates to have the payment officially effected. Note, that my client is
a public office holder cum politician of immense standing, as such his
identity must be jealously guarded and protected throughout the exercise for
obvious reasons.
Let your reaction reach me via email soonest, if you have the track-record
and potentials to receive, invest, and manage large sums successfully to
profitability.
Thank you.
Yours faithfully,
Sandra Harrison.
