Who wants to be a millionaire?

June 28, 2010 /

Everyday, we get to receive messages from unknown people, offering us millions of dollars. And when we read the messages, it’s clear that there were foul plays and it’s funny how the sender could actually think that we could fall into such trap. Normally, we could smell it at the very first paragraph.

Here are some examples of the messages:

“I am Avery D. Baker jr  a solicitor at law. I was the personal Attorney to Late Boguslaw Krupa ,53 years of age who made a fixed deposit of fund valued at USD$12,500,000 (Twelve Million, Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars) with a Finance Company here in Europe and unfortunately lost his life a plane crash”

“Attn: Please,
We wish to notify you again that you were listed as an Heir to the total sum of Five Million British Pounds in the codicil and testament of our deceased client. Name now withheld since this is our second letter to you. “

“Good day,
Firstly, let me identify myself without any intention of equivocation, I Mr. Johan Dickson 49years old, Financial Expert worked here in UK top bank, I will be happy if we can do business together in good faith and this proposal will be of mutual benefit for us. I have a transaction deal in the tune of $15,000,000.00 (Fifteen million united state American dollars} to be transferred to any possible safe account with your good assistance. I have every possibility & advantages for the proceeds of this account to be paid to you and then both of us can share equal percentage meaning 60% for me and 40% to you. Can I trust you on this subject matter?”

We know that to gain $1 takes a lot of effort but to gain $1 million? That must be ridiculous, right?

I am just sparking up a conversation here, just for the fun of it, on how would you react if you are the beneficiary of $1 million.

Before investing in bullion, you should learn everything you can about a Gold IRA. You can always contact the professionals from american bullion for assistance if you have any questions.

This is a fun subject to discuss and don’t be shy, do leave me your thoughts in the comment box. As for me, if I have $1 Million, below is what I would do:

    i akan buat benda yg i tk boleh buat sgt dengan my hard earn money sekarang 🙂 kalau mcm donate and all, i try my best utk kasik sedikit yg ada kepada the needy, tapi kalau mcm things yg bukan keperluan langsung mmg tkkan terfikir la nk buat.

    so, if i have 1 million dollar (or pound better) I nk travel across the globe and splurge on purchase yg kalau i beli guna my hard earn money sekarang consider “sinful” like beli bag LV harga 12 ribu 😀 ngeh ngeh….

    This one has a high possibility of a money laundering scheme but than again fraudster may ask you to bank in some money to them before they could transfer the money to you either way its not good.

    In email, this scheme may or may not work but in phone call in the same nature… many fall pray to it.

    Cheers
