ThePestControllers Posted June 20, 2014 Report Share Posted June 20, 2014 Morning People I have just received an email from someone supposed to be Michael Shepherd From mickshepherdguns@aol.com This is what the email says Sorry to bother you with this. I am presently in Athens Greece with my ill Cousin. She's suffering from a Kidney disease and must undergo surgery to save her life. I am deeply sorry for not writing or calling you before leaving, the news of her illness arrived to me as an emergency and that she needs family support to keep her going, I hope you understand my plight and pardon me. The surgery is very cheap here in Athens, I am wondering if you can be of any assistance to me, I need the balance of 2,500 Euro to make the necessary arrangement, I traveled with little money due to the short time I had to prepare for this trip and never expected things to be the way it is right now. I'll surely pay you back once I get back home, The surgery needs to be done as soon as possible because she is going through a lot of pain at the moment and the doctor have advised that she has to be operated on time to avoid complications. I will appreciate whatever amount you can come up with if not all. Please get back to me.ThanksMick I think this is the same person who was scamming people out of money saying he was interested in buying there guns. Can you spread the word about this CON MAN Cheers Daz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
huffhuff Posted June 20, 2014 Report Share Posted June 20, 2014 (edited) This is a well known and quite common scam email. It's a virus that spreads it and the originator isn't normally aware until they start getting phone calls from worried friends and family. It's either been sent unknowingly from the person who's listed computer or their email has been hacked. Replying to it will get you another personal and genuine sounding response. SCAM TO GET YOU TO SEND MONEY - JUST DELETE IT (and let them know so they can email everybody and say it's a hoax) So next time, have a quick google or check your facts before you start naming and shaming (although in this case, it seems maybe the guy is a scoundrel anyway) http://spamscamwatch.blogspot.co.uk/2011/12/not-sad-trip-but-sad-scam-attempt.html Edited June 20, 2014 by huffhuff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Salopian Posted June 20, 2014 Report Share Posted June 20, 2014 I have received a similar email from a known friend who says that he is in the Ukraine paying for a bone marrow transplant for his cousin and urgently requires £9500. A friend in need is a pain in the rear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

malkiserow Posted June 20, 2014 Report Share Posted June 20, 2014 I know a nice man in Nigeria who can give you some help with all this financial stuff, he has loads of money (millions of US Dollars) in a whorehouse and just needs to have a bit of cash to release it from the authorities. I am sure he can also arrange some transport to take the millions to Greece. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pegasus bridge Posted June 20, 2014 Report Share Posted June 20, 2014 (edited) It's yet another creation of the "Sir Rt. Hon Dr professor Brigadier (insert random name)" brigade. Sitting, sweating and writing this **** in an Internet cafe in Nigeria, in the vain hope that for every 50000 emails they send out, one will land in the inbox of a simpleton.

CaptainBeaky Posted June 20, 2014 Report Share Posted June 20, 2014 I had one of these supposedly from a friend of mine, claiming to need money to get back from Greece. It was quite amusing as he was sitting at the next table in the pub at the time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
