Abaddon Posted April 26, 2012 Posted April 26, 2012 I find it incomprehensible that anybody would fall for this.. and I also worry that the person sending them thinks they are even remotely genuine looking..
SC92 Posted April 26, 2012 Posted April 26, 2012 (edited) $10.7,000,000.00 (Ten million Seven Hundred Thousand united states dollars) Somebody failed GCSE Maths! 8/10 for effort though.. Edited April 26, 2012 by SC92
Earthling Posted April 26, 2012 Posted April 26, 2012 Never, ever underestimate the power of human stupidity. 1
tech_guy Posted April 26, 2012 Posted April 26, 2012 Lol, as if the FBI would use a Hotmail email account. The sad thing is though that people do fall for this kind of scam.
Oaktech Posted April 26, 2012 Posted April 26, 2012 I love a carefully concocted scam email. More of this I say! Quite frankly i'm fed up with 'buy cheap viagra', 'join f*ckbook' emails and 'buy high quality r0lex replica'
jinnantonnixx Posted April 26, 2012 Posted April 26, 2012 Lol, as if the FBI would use a Hotmail email account. The sad thing is though that people do fall for this kind of scam. Damn - I didn't spot that. Is it too late to cancel?
PICNIC Posted April 26, 2012 Posted April 26, 2012 Total Weight: ..........................36.2 kg Total Net Weight: ...................1.7 kg Seems a bit heavy for an ATM card
jinnantonnixx Posted April 26, 2012 Posted April 26, 2012 Seems a bit heavy for an ATM card I suppose it has be packed securely, what with $10.7 billion loaded on it. Mind you, it strikes me as an odd way of transferring money half way across the world. I hope they remembered to note down the PIN.
36Degrees Posted April 26, 2012 Posted April 26, 2012 I'm having lots of problems with my bank accounts lately for some reason. Even those with banks I've never used...
CHR1S Posted April 26, 2012 Posted April 26, 2012 so $10,700,000 is roughly £6,903,226 You can take a maximum of £200 per day from an ATM That would take you 34516 days to withdraw Or 4931 weeks Or 95 years Not factoring interest! /pedant

Dos_Box Posted April 26, 2012 Posted April 26, 2012 Right up until you forget the pin and the card gets swallowed
Garacesh Posted April 27, 2012 Posted April 27, 2012 Special Express (2 Days) Mailing $180.00 00.00 Insurance $50.00 00.00 Vat $150.00 00.00 Economy Express (3Days) Mailing $100.00 00.00 Insurance$?150.00 00.00 Vat (5%) $50.00 00.00 Wait.. Wat? It's posts like this that make me want to re-activate my old web domain, gmail account and online answermachine to troll these guys and keep them from ACTUALLY hooking someone.. Mr. Drew Peacock would LOVE 10 million dollars.. (or 107 million.. Not too sure..)
Elison Posted May 3, 2012 Posted May 3, 2012 my god, are there people who believe in this crap?? do they think they look truthful when write: "we are the special agents Scally and Mulder from FBI"?
Jamman960 Posted May 3, 2012 Posted May 3, 2012 Spell checkers obviously haven't made it over there yet... once they do or they get someone to proof read their scams we're in trouble Hmm maybe we could spam them back offering a proof reading service to increase the success rate of their scams by at least 20% if they send £10000 or 40% if they send £20000 or a special limited time offer of 100% for £1m!
