Today I received an email from a certain Mr. Chow Yeng who informs me he is the director of operations of the Hang Seng Bank Ltd. Hong Kong.
Should any of you receive a similar email it might be worth considering why a person capable of holding such a position would need your help to dispose of over 24 million dollars sitting in one of his banks which belonged to a dead person without relatives before it is taken by the Hong Kong Government.
He has carried out diligent research prior to concluding that I am just the very person to assist him and is offering me a 60% share of the money.
OOOH look! There goes a whole Squadron of Flying Pigs and every one is about to crash into my deleted file!
Personally I think that anybody who believes a scam like that deserves everything they lose for being so greedy and stupid.
With these scams, even if there is no request for money, it is not safe to make any reply at all to the email address provided, not even to tell them what plonkers they are.
