Diplomat Arrived

[bhooms]

Hello Every one.

Pls i need some suggestions.

Today i got a call saying that today a diplomat is arriving in my country with a container of one million dollars. Once he arrives here, he 'll handover the container to me. I am supposed to $2700 for handling charges.

Pls advise whether should i deal this or, its just a fake.

with regards,
BhoomS

This is a "diplomatic delivery" scam, a type of Nigerian scam.

Real diplomats do not perform cash deliveries.

The only money that changes hands in that kind of scam is money from you to them. You either get nothing or a suitcase full of paper. Sometimes it's black paper the size of dollar bills. They then tell you it's been dyed for security and you need to buy cleaning fluid to remove the black ink. You pay even more money.

Do not reply to such scams. If you have already replied break off contact now.

You can forward emails received from the scammers to 419@419scam.org to report them.

Hi BhoomS,

This is a fake. Sadly, there is no diplomat or container of money. It is all in the scammers imagination. :(

i 'll forward all the mails to the given ID. Thanks a lot once again.
