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.

Dear VICTIM-FULLNAME,
we have been doing our best to track the people that scamed you down, i want you to know that all the money you have been sending to him is fraud, he took advantage of you, if you are willing to get all your money back and also recieve your fund which as he claimed, i will arrange everything down and let you know on how to follow up, but please do not disclose this information to him so that he will not leave the country.
Reply back and state how much money you have invested in this. also note that it will cost you $700 to get an accredited atorney here who will file out the case on your behalf, the $700 is the registration fees which must be paid to the atorney first before he can register/file out the case, you will then pay him his charges of $10,000 when you finally recieve your fund.
if you have the $700 then let me know immediatly so that i will tell you on how to send it, because these will only take 4days to finalize it.
Reply fast,because this should not waste much time.
Thanks,
Kalu George.
