Thanks Galen,
The last comment shows the so called header information sent with each and every e-mail. You can see that this message was sent through mail servers belonging to Orange, France.
It doesn’t conform to the message itself, claiming to come from the IMF in Washington.
Once again, thanks Galen for your post
Michael
I have recently been getting e-mails from a Mr. Johnson Mark who claims to be with the Ecobank of Mali S.A., West Africa, he even sent me a Credit Card number and a Pin Number along with a picture of the credit card in my name. The amount is $1,250,000 US and all I have to do is wire him $150.00 Via Western Union for the person to deliver the card and I can then withdraw up to $6000 per day from any ATM machine.These people must think we are all crazy. The Card is a card with HSBC/Ecobank on it.
