One of their exotic clients was to visit the <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 /><st1:country-region w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">United States</st1:place></st1:country-region> on business and was looking for a massage therapist in the area she would be staying. The agent was willing to send an upfront payment to cover the cost of massages for one week, but stated he could only send a large sum of money to my friends account and asked if she could transfer the extra money back. The email screamed SCAM! <?xml:namespace prefix = o /><o:p></o:p></SPAN></P> <P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial"><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></SPAN></P> <P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">Unfortunately, similar scams are popping up more often, especially over the past few years. Most of these scams are based out of Nigeria, and while no one is exactly sure why, some speculate that the government in that country plays a role in the devastation that would lead a person to attempt to swindle money from another human being.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P> <P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial"><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></SPAN></P> <P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">As my friend experienced, the scam normally comes in the form of an email wherein an individual is looking for help in transferring money from one country to another. The money may or may not have been obtained through illegal means, or the person sending the email may be the executor of the estate of someone who is recently deceased but wanted to donate his or her money to a charity. Regardless of the reason, you'll be asked to maintain a bank account for the purpose of the transfer and in order for the account to look legitimate you'll have to make a deposit of your own money to start.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">&nbsp; </SPAN>You will, of course, have to give your account number to the foreigner and at that point your original deposit will disappear, never to be seen again!<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P> <P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial"><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></SPAN></P> <P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">Never ever give your personal financial information to anyone you meet online. The person plotting the scam depends on you making an initial deposit that he can steal the moment you turn over your account information. These emails all look the same, with similar stories. Just delete them. If you feel you must take some sort of action, notify your local law enforcement agency and find out if they have developed a special unit to investigate this type of fraud. The Nigerian Advance Fee Scam seems to find a new victim tangled in its web on a regular basis, regardless of the number of warnings published in banks and on the Internet. Save your money&nbsp;- be cautious and smart and you won't be the next victim.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P> <P> <P>After examining and testing hundreds of work at home programs, ONLY ONE brought in a paycheck that covered all my monthly expenses.<BR><A href="http://www.goldenpaycheck.com"><FONT color=#ff2b00>Click here to go to this website.</FONT></A> <P><IMG height=7 src="images/bar2.jpg" width=504> </P> <P></P> <P></P></FONT><?php include_once("rss_reader.php") ?></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE> <P> <CENTER><FONT face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" color=#cc6600 size=1><B><FONT color=#000000>ýÿ Copyright 2004.
