Whatever should l do?? Someone please has got to help me.

You may think l'm crazy, well l probably am. The thing is this is not really an op on financial advice but l didn't know where to put it. You all need to give me some financial advice though.

I have had a very personal E.Mail from a gentleman who is a top official in a foreign National Petroleum Corporation.

He says that they have $38 million dollers that they have to put into a bank account in this country preferably and that l would receive 30% of this if l let them use my bank. Now this is such a problem as l wouldn't know what to do with so much money?

Whatever sort of a con is this. He has emailed me twice wanting information about me (which l haven't given) to ensure that l am a god fearing and trustworthy individual. They say they got my name from the their Chamber of commerce! Hmm course they did, what ever sort of fool do they think l am.

Anyway after much deliberation l decided that l should put this notice up on dooyoo and see if anyone else has had such a thing and they could tell me and we could all share the money.

It says on email that l should watch my words on the emails l send and be very careful. This makes me quite uncomfortable, who am l dealing with here?

All jokes aside this has got me a little perturbed. I am a greedy cow and if l throw all that money away i'd be gutted. (hehe) I could have a field day in Tesco for my weekly shop with this (l could probably buy some of tesco itself).

Dooyoo know anything about this, anybody! Wanna share? Dooyoo?

They probably want my $38 million and then will give me 30% back. Well l'm here to tell you they're not getting it. I'm keeping my 38 million grains of rice to myself (thats about the only thing l've got 38 million of).

I just had a thought l wonder if its 38 million dooyoo miles?

I'm gonna sen
d it to BBC Watchdog and see what they make of it all.

I'd really appreciate any feed-back on this.

Thanks

UPDATE: I have printed copies of the emails and am taking them to a policewoman friend of mine.

I also emailed the Nigerians to say that l am sure that this is some kind of scam and that they had disturbed me. If it wasn't/ isn't a scam then the police will know what to do.

I am pretty scared though, l have to admit, as you have visions of, having dobbed them in, a gang of undesirables turning up at your home and ot being very nice to poor little me. (ooh, l know l joke but it is a bit disturbing).

Thankyou to those of you that gave me advice.

I did actually hear from the Police and they told me to ignore it (they wanted all the money themselves, l know). It is actually a scam that is going about. The reason being to get your bank account details, access the account and even if theres no money in it use your name for fraudulent purposes. (The precise details of which they didn't elaborate).

So be warned, aparantly especially from the Nigerians there is a con in practically every email. They are very dangerous to get involved with and can be very bad for your health (not to mention good name and bank balance). So if you recieve anything like it just email them back to go away and not bother you with their scam. (Then send the details of the kosher ones to me and we'll split the money).
