I start a series of posts from today to inform you about the biggest and worst scam ever happened and still happening on the internet. I thought to write about this because I received an email which I know that a scam. I will add the whole email and the response I sent today in this article. When the conversation continues, I will add more posts as a series with emails I excahanged to inform you about this scam. Normally these people send emails as a private accountant or a wealthy girl trapped in a refugee camp in an African country experiencing a civil war according to the information I found out. There may be other forms of the person. But the content of the emails they send normally convey the same idea, A huge amount of money (normally few millions of US $) and he or she needs your help. They find your email from the web directories, Forums or community websites. Ok read the following email that I received carefully.
