Fraud email example:
From: "Dimartino Dino" <projectmaker1@o2.pl>
Date: Tue, 12 Sep 2006 17:29:43 +0300
Subject: Email
Attn: I am Dimartino Dino, American Ciziten and I represent Mr. Mikhail
Khordokovsky the former C.E.O of Yukos Oil Company in Russia. I have a very
sensitive and confidential brief from this top (oligarch) to ask for your
partnership in re-profiling funds over US$68 million. I will give the details,
but in summary, the funds are coming via Menatep. This is a legitimate
transaction. You will be paid 30% for your "management fees". If you are
interested, please write back by providing me with your confidential telephone
number, fax number and I will provide further details and instructions. Please
keep this confidential; we can't afford more political problems. Finally, please
note that this must be concluded within two weeks. Write me back if you are
intrested.
I God we Trust,
Dimartino Dino.
