Hi all good after noon. Since almost one month iam getting mails from a girl called faith mambo from africa.The content of the mails were like this.
Her parents are dead in a war when she was child and now she is 23 and she has got an information from the bank that her father has saved 15million dollers in his account keeping her as nominee.To get the total amount one of her friend has to contact the bank by phone and has to give their complete account details for the transfer of the total amount.She is saying that she cannot transfer the amount directly So, I have to help her in this regard by giving all my account details.And for this she is offering 15% of 15million dollers.Iam from INDIA and she is from an African country and i don't know her also i don't know how she came to know about my email addess and all.Iam confused how she can ask to an unknown that too for Other country men to transfer the amount in their account first later to her account.Can anyone belive in all these words and help her? Im in confusion.

I had these kind of email in my inbox. I just ignore them because they are definitely spams mails. They'll probably steal your identity and possibly your money. As for how they get your email its maybe because of your internet activity where you sign up at websites. Maybe they get your email from there. Just ignore these emails. If it is too bothering than maybe you should lodge a report.

I think i have to what you have done with the mails you got and i just kept them under spam.And can you tell me one thing if i have to report about this then to whom i should report.These type of cases come under cyber crime and here in my city there is no cyber police station.

I have received a couple of emails with the same story or similar stories. It is not a true story, it is a scam. Those emails always promise that you'll recieve some money if you do this or that, but she is not going to give you any money, she (or he or whoever it is) wants to TAKE your money. Please don't answer her and don't give her your personal details.
