If this person was really from the FBI, he would have a .gov or fbi.org in the email reply instead of having to reply to his personal email address.

URGENT ATTENTION


I am special agent Scot Ray; from the Intelligence Unit of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). We just intercepted/confiscated two (2) Trunk Boxes at the Hartsfield Jackson International Airport in Atlanta Georgia. We are on the verge of moving this consignment to the bureau headquarters. However, we scanned the said boxes and found out that it contained a total of USD4.7M and some back up documents which bears your name as the owner of the funds. Investigation carried out on the Diplomat who accompanied these boxes into the United States, revealed that he was to make the delivery of the funds to your residence as these funds are entitled to you, been Contract/Inheritance over due payments. The funds were from the Ministry of Finance of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.


Furthermore, after cross checking all the legal documents we found in the boxes backing you up as the beneficiary of the funds, it became known to us that one of the documents is missing. This document is very important and until we get the document, the boxes will be temporarily confiscated pending when you will provide it. The much needed document is the Diplomatic Immunity Seal of Delivery Certificate (DISDC). This document will protect you from going against the US Patriot Act Section 314a and Section 314b . This delivery will be tagged A Diplomatic Transit Payment (D.T.P) once you get the document.


You are therefore required to get back to me on my private email id ([email protected]) within 72 hours so that i will guide you on how to get the much needed document. Failure to comply to this directives may lead to the permanent confiscation of the funds and possible arrest. We may also get the Financial Action Task Force on Money Laundering (FATF) involved if do not follow our instructions. You are also advised not to get in contact with any Bank in Africa, Europe or any other institution, as your funds are here now in the United States of America.

Sounds legit man. You should hurry up and comply before you get thrown in jail over a box of unmarked Nigerian kazinkis.

So.... it was the email address rather than the promise of money from Nigeria that tipped this one off as a scam?

[Rapid Roger]

If after reading that,you thought for an instant it might be legit.........Nevermind

[pappytinker]

Especially since it has a server address in JAPAN (.jp)
