Alert: Example of an Email from a Scammer

Scammer's email #2 (The first one I'll post next)

Here's another one: "My names are..." I'm not repeating his name. I'm looking for the website that lists often-scammed names and his was one of them.When I find it I'll post it here. These were emails.

"My names are..."

"My ex-wife died of Breast cancer three years ago that's why I'm single now."

"I'm a widow..."

That's just for starters. This is just a text-book classic. Had to share it.

Dear Carolyn,

Thank you for your prompt response. in regard of my mail, I wanna tell you more about myself in details so that you can get to know me more better.

My names are ...[my names are?] from United Kingdom (Portsmouth, England) as you have already known, 56 years old, 5ft 8-in, brown hair, brown eyes. my ex-wife died of Breast cancer three years ago that's why I'm single now. I'm in search for true love with the right woman for the rest of my life.

I'm a widow with one son by name Davidson, he is 14 years old studying in England under the custody of a Nanny - I am kind, caring, fun-loving and romantic guy that loves getting to know lots of new people. I enjoy going to the pub with friends, meals out, cinema, theater, walks along the beach, cycling and playing / watching different sports.

My achievement with my profession at its peak means nothing to me until I can have someone to share my dreams, anticipation and all with. My friends say I am humble, understanding, friendly, funny and some just say, I am a good friend with a basic understanding and value for true friendship. My wealth of experience gathered through work trips is really a plus to my person and if you don't mind I could share lots about my experience.

Life is a great teacher and I think you just might be in a better position to tell me what kind of person I am, which I am optimistic would be a positive remark. Spontaneous is a word to describe me, Work has not provided me the best of life experience, although it's very stressful, but the bulk of experience would further assist me in managing my life with that of my special woman.

I'm working in a  Cruise Ship as a Chief Administrative Officer(CAO) but I'm planning to retire from my active duty before the end of next month. my roles and responsibilities as a Chief Administrative Officer  includes -

*Providing instructional leadership to department managers
*Developing and implementing the company's strategic plan
*Reviewing administrative policy
*Developing and implementing budgets
*Supervising marketing efforts
*Preparing financial reports
*Motivating sales staff

You are free to ask me anything you desire to know about me and I will gladly answer you.

Thanks and Regards
Yours Friend
