I have no idea if this person ever saw my profile anywhere. It’s not all that hard to find me on the Internet these days, so maybe “he” was on a social networking site.

But so that you know for sure, “she” is a “he”, just posing to get some men interested.

Here’s a classic mistake a lot of the African crooks make. They send a message which does not agree with the e-mail account sending it.

Now I for one, would not believe a tale like this one for just for that reason.
On the other hand, why would anybody who had Mikhail Khordokovsky’s money in his possession need me to help transfer his cash anywhere? They would already have all the right contacts without needing to resort to someone like myself if that was true.

A third point, Mikhail Khordokovsky, the former boss of Yukos Oil Company, is interned somewhere in Siberia and is no longer an important business man (oligarch).

Dating and Social Networks are very popular with African crooks. They obviously target men and this e-mail is exactly the same kind of strategy.

Get a man interested, offer him a deal and take it from there.
