Have I been targetted by Joy as a lowly paid military guy ? Anyone else that posts here on the Mil Aircrew get these as PMs ?

Maybe she knows I missed out on the FRI :E

Have you got the cash yet?
Can I borrow 500 nira?

This is a long standing scam but I'm staggered that it got into a pprune PM.

Send Joy your bank details and "she" will clean it out for you:{

Send me £500 and I'll tell you how to avoid the scam.... :E

In the meantime, the letters on here (http://www.419eater.com/) are excellent.

I'm quite familiar with the 419 scammers. If you google Ebola Monkey, he winds them up and gets some good mileage out of it too !

Surprised it hit my PM inbox though. Got all excited that I was being PM'd !!!

FFP,the difference between the Nigerian* scam (*or insert name of recent equatorial coup d'etat here) and the MoD/Government, is that one is a group of spineless chancers relying on the weakness of human nature to exploit their fellow man for personal gain, and the other is an e-mail scam.

We have had a number of these.

If you rx one just get rid of it!
