This email smells funny, like SPAM... or is that SCAM? If I were you, I would blacklist that email address, dis-continue any further contact, and DO NOT give out any personal banking Information.

read more about the Nigerian Scam, or 419 Scam, or Advance Fee Fraud: http://www.snopes.com/crime/fraud/nigeria.asphttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advance_fee_frauda lot of variations of the scam are in effect to defraud unwitting victims of their money. you should be very careful in dealing with people who promise you fortunes with little effort on your part, especially when you deal with them online. avoid them like the plague, and don't let promises of large amounts of money impair your judgment.

A friend of mine had a similar case, where they gave him some far fetched story. What my friend did was reply back with another far fetched story, picking bits and pieces from their story in order to form a similar story as to relate to them. The story my friend got was quite similar, the person claimed to have lost their parents, used to be part of a rich family, and is having trouble claiming their father's inheritance. My friend played along saying that he too was from a rich family and lost everything since his parent's death but has some support. My friend asked for proof of the money, upfront and in cash, with an I.D. of the person. Interestingly enough, they sent him an image of an I.D. to his e-mail, and asked for an image of my friend. It was funny, but the scammer eventually stopped e-mailing him.

That is a typical scam and believe it or not, it works on quite a few people! They send this email to a lot of people and a few of them actually buy it...as far as i know it is a sort of scam in which you have to transfer some of you money in order to get that AMAZING 7 million  But after you transfer that money, BAM noone is there anymore...it is an old type of scam, but very common and widespread, so I'd suggest you to send this email to proper sites which deal with that sort of stuff...

IT'S A TRAP(17)!Yes when I read that first email that you were sent this was what first came to my mind (sans the 17). I thought that putting this guy would be pretty hilarious, but what they are trying to do to you is no laughing matter. Any person you randomly meet on the internet that is asking for your bank account is most likely running some kind of scam. Even if this was legit (which it is not), why would you go through the trouble for this person when they could take advantage of you so easily? Any person that you've never met before that emails you a picture and asks for yours is just asking for trouble.

AHahahaha well first off the very first email you got was already spam before it even started, because which profile did they find you on and how would they know your email address as well? Also another tip is the first name Goodness is a very uncommon name to have especially since the last name is of African/Middle eastern descent as well. Also that second reply s"he" sent you already tells you it is a scam because really who would be on a computer in a refugee camp that would only provide the basics as well? Of course the real big tip off is the phone number, on top of that fact she wants you to move $7.5 Million dollars, which begs the question why would a complete stranger ask you to move that much money? Simply enough they want your account information so they can steal your money and that answers your question of what would they do to your account. Of course really why would someone in Africa have money in Europe besides dictors and those kind of people? No one, and on top of that if she has all this money why is she in a refugee camp? I won't even go through the bad english either because it is there, and like everyone has mention it is a SCAM and SCAM need to be placed in SPAM!! These Nigerian scams have been going on for at least 10 years now, and knowing how yahoo profiling system works they wouldn't be able to get your email anyways. So do what is suggest and tell s"he" to find another sucker to steal money from. As mentioned in a previous post some people are duped in given these strangers their person info and junk, and so listen to us SHE IS FAKE!

I too got the same message but the sender was different, not only once, but more than 10 times. I strongly feels that this scam works by harvesting emails from social networking sites as all the mails with similar content was received on my email ID that I use exclusively on social networking websites. My spam filters were smart enough mark such messages as SPAM and even otherwise, I would not respond to such messages. This is a scam and eventually it will end up in asking money in a twisted manner. When you paid them, they will vanish in to thin air. Everyone points it to some African countries.

comment on what do you think of this email
What Do You Thinks Of This Email
hye everybody!surprisingly to say I got the same email too! the story was just the same! it came from a girl in dakar,senegal claiming she is a refugee and has lost her parents and now asking someone for a help to transfer her late father's money being deposited to her account as the next of kin for 4 million us dolar! that's a lot of money! I met this girl in a social site which she sent me a private email,that she wanted to know me.At first I thought she's a man,so I replied her saying I'd like to start as a friend first before move on to the next level.I replied to her 2 weeks after I got the message on the site but she replied me soon enough! and started to tell the story as what being mentioned like above! then I was thinking,doesn't she knows I'm a girl?(I think she's aiming for a man but didn't notice that I'm a girl! hahahaa!) but I kept reading her email then I started to feel very funny bout her email.How could she trust someone she doesn't know to transfer such a great amount of money? another fact that made her story funnier,how can a refugee use the internet as I believe a refugee camp only provides basic needs? I think the same when I read all comments posted by other victim(can I call that? huhuu...) like me! whoever those poeple are doing this,I think they're such a slob and so pathetic! another thing,I think the next time,they'd like to find another victim,they should confirmed the gender of the person first!then write the most dramatic storyline to them!HAHAHAA! maybe that can even make one cry when reading their email! (huuuuuu...What a sad life this young has to gone through...)
