I get this email today

"I am writing this mail to you with tears and sorrow from my heart. With due respect , trust and humanity, i appeal to you to exercise a little
patience and read through my mail, i feel quite safe dealing with you. My name is Chan Ali, the 24 years old daughter of late Mr. Aliff Ali. I write seeking your help in protecting my late father's estate and funds. Over the past 8years I have sat and watched my extended family and my mothers families scramble for my late fathers estates, with every measure of greed they can muster. It has left a once vast estate with almost nothing, and neither of
this sycophant group has viewed my future or that of my kid brother as worth protecting. Luckily with the aid of my late father's attorney we were able to
cover some funds lodged with CITY-LINK SECURITIES & GLOBAL NETWORK. Here in Malaysia which neither of these fighting groups is privy to.
Though this CITY-LINK SECURITIES COMPANY has been hidden from these groups, they have the notion that such exists and has troubled the family of my late father's solicitor for information on same. Hence the need for me to remove the funds from my country.
If you would aid me in this process, you will be handsomely rewarded. The details of this process will be explained to you by my father's solicitor on
event of your approval and subsequently the settlement will be discussed. It will also interest me if you can suggest a safe investment project that the
funds can finance.
I wait for your kind response via same email address..... unnw1@aol.com
Yours Sincerely,
Chan Ali."




Usually these 419 scams get passed on as I rarely check my spam folder, but I feel like a bit of crime fighting going on...

Good stuff, glad to see someone else engaged in this cybersport.

(I have some experience with this stuff -- baited some people, one for 6 months -- there's plenty of helpful guidance at 419Eater if you're interested.)

haha no steph brown for me, nice shot at the war games act

I got a reply



I thank you for your kind response for your acceptance in helping me, after I have read your mail I was very happy for your mail. I really need your trust and honesty in this transaction I know is very heard to trust but if there is no trust there will be no deal, and you need to promise me one thing if this fund be in your position hope the money will be save, that is why I need God fearing person.
I would love to speak with you on telephone regarding this transaction for me to be sure you will secure my fund and be my guardian. I am a Malaysian citizen from Kuala Lumpur Selangor state of Malaysia. Attaches are my photograph I will send you my I D Identification scan copy by tomorrow.
Home Address: B-94 Mentary Court Bandar Sunway Petaling Jaya, Malaysia.
Please send your phone number, home address and your Identification,eg drivers licens or international passport photocopy for me to supply to my father's attorney to start preparing vital documents on your favor immediately to enable the CITY-LINK SECURITIES COMPANY release the money to you because this CITY-LINK SECURITIES COMPANY has giving my Late Father attorney mandate about the fund, fail to meet up with the mandate the fund will be transfered into Malaysia government account and this is only my last hope so we need to act fast because the mandate the company give to my late father attorney the days are in numbers,please be transperient and have God in mind but I know with God all things are possible, i will discuse with my mother and the attorney about the percentage to give you after the money is out in your position.
I will inform my father attorney about you, hope meeting you soon.I awaiting your reply as soon as possible.thanks.
Sincerely
LOVE
Chan ali

the fact that they cant use spell check [transperient] means they probably dont know what incarcerated means
