But anyway, I just like this letter to be posted, so that whoever may recieved a letter like this or similar as this, please warn everybody if its a fraud. I read an e-mail posted here in fraudwatchers not the same contents but the way its written and explained it has the same purpose.:confused:

Good Day My Dearest in Christ,

you
from Rep of Cote d'Ivoire where we have being taken refuge after the

us to

here
which is sum of US $ 4.2 million in Abidjan the capital city of Cote
d'Ivoire.

willing

Subject: God Bless you form Joy Williams
My name is JOY WILLIAMS,from Liberia. I am 19
8.45 million dollars
(Capitalizes name.)
am very sorry to bother you with my plight. Please know that it's not by mistake I am contacting you but by the special grace of God.

After searching for someone I can lay my plight to, I’ve finally come with you after prayers to God. My name is JOY WILLIAMS,from Liberia. I am 19. My father and I escaped from our country at the heat of the civil war after loosing my mother and two of my senior sisters in the war. They were raped and shot.

My father established his cocoa business in Kumasi, Ghana. He was in ACCRA, to negotiate for the purchase a field when he was involved in an auto crash. There is a big problem here and the people here hate foreigners. He was hospitalised before he finally gave up on the 24th of March .His death has now made me an orphan and I am exposed to danger.As I write, foreigners are attacked on daily basis.

I wouldn't bet on it. Fake check scams are quite popular, profitable for the scammer, and certified bank checks can be and have been successfully counterfeited.
