sadly yes, they send out thousands of these email, they only need one "mug" to get hooked and they've made a fortune to them, even a few hundred quid in nigeria means a year of living well


the west brom bethel where he worked is not far from where the jensen factory was, it is huge and opulent, must have cost millions to build, they won't miss the money, thousands attend there sundays to praise jesus, they have coaches full of worshippers turn up and the car park overflows onto the main road

Mug maybe, but at 77 not unexpected. Note to anyone waiting for an elderly rich relative to hand over the inheritance - keep an eye on their internet activity and give their email the NSA treatment.

I met a bloke who'd been done out of £30k by the 'tech support' scam before.

It happens more often than you'd think. Fortunately it was all bank transfers which the bank then put the kibosh on but even so...

I'm a private investigator-superhero. I'll look into the matter for a competitive fee (£499.99) if you like.
