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.
