I got the best scam fax ever!
It's kind of long so I'll just pull a few bits from it. This is going to be difficult because I will type it as is, with punctuation and grammatical errors.
"My name is Mr. Jeff Radebe.I am the chief financial consultant with one of the South Africans investment and private based bank. The bank is a specialist private bank that accepts deposits from high net work individuals, blue chip corporations and commodities traders in south africa."
He goes on to describe his duties after that.
"The bank has gone into liquidation and our esteemed customers are receiving payouts from the government's depositors compensation scheme through an investment bank. The liquidation plan estimates that 89% of our customers would be fully refunded before the end of 2011.
In the cause of my duty i noted that one of our customers, mr Fred Buther, a Canadian citizen who secured a loan facility with the bankd for $13million is now deceased.Mr Fred Buther deposited with the bank as a collateral security, documents of ownership of his mine field in south africa.The mine field has be repossessed and it is valued at $47milllion. The liquidating authorities are ready to refund the excess amount of $34m back to Mr. Buther.I am in possession of Mr. Buthers collateral documents as the officer who negotiated the facility on behalf of the bank."
He then goes on to ask for my partnership to help him claim the funds. Mr. Buther has no next of kin, and says he will make me the next of kin, all he needs is my details for processing the necessary legal and administrative claim documents.
LMAO! This is the first time I have ever received something like this, via fax.
Oh and he signed it; "I will await your urgent response"
