I just received this in my email this morning. I had to laugh. It was so hilarious. Yes I know its a scam. Read on and tell me what you think. Attention: Beneficiary, ALIVE OR DEAD In the course of our General Auditing and Account revision of the first quarter of the year 2008 ending within few days from now, we discovered that the Bank Accounts belonging to some Benefactors have been changed on the basis that the owners have died some time last year or have given out an authorization note of change of data. After the investigations however, it was revealed that there are Foreigners who are collaborating with Retired Staffs to make these changes illegally without the knowledge of the Bonafide Benefactors and one traced to your own change is this Mr DAVID COCHRAN who said you are dead, hence they have forwarded some documents of funeral service held for you so as to divert your fund. They have also forwarded this bank account below as the new account that will receive this money. Bank: Hang Seng Bank Bank Address: 83 Des Veoux Road , Central - Hong Kong Account Name: Mr DAVID COCHRAN Account Number: 235-325172-882 Bank Code: 024 Swift Code: HASEHKHH But we wanted to confirm if actually this is true and hence decided to write to your email address which after 2 days from now and there is no response, we will then know that you are dead indeed and go on with the transfer. If proved otherwise that you did not die, please forward to us all particulars including your Telephone number,contact address,Occupation and age. These details from you will assist us reach a conclusion that you are not dead. Anything contrary to this claim will help us charge this man to court and prosecute him while your fund will be paid to you immediately without any further delay. You have to get back to us on time for us to commence legal proceedings against Mr. DAVE COCHRAN and his accomplices. Sincerely yurs, David John. Tel: +234-802-9315467.
