Шальные деньги от фейковой генеральши
Доброго времени суток, пикабушники! Раньше пикабу только читал, ничего не писал и не планировал, но сегодня возникла необходимость поделиться одним потенциальным способом мошенничества.
Недавно на мой почтовый ящик пришло письмо от majorgeneralstellamabry@gmail.com со следующим содержанием:
"Hello dear; Good day, Nice to meet you, My Name is Major General Stella Marbry, i'm busy at work now. I wish to have an imortant discussion with you, kindly contact me on my email address".
Письмо пришло сразу в спам, поэтому увидел я его только через пару дней после получения. Само собой, мне стало интересно что это и я ответил:
"Hello. Who are you and what do you want to discuss?"
После чего мне в ответ пришел долгий текст про тяжелую судьбу американского солдата и внезапной удаче. Итак, половина текста - это убеждение ею меня, будто она посмотрела мой профиль на фейсбуке, и вдруг так резко с помощью него начала мне доверять, что верит будто я никогда не предам ее (лол, в моем профиле даже фотки моей нет и всего с десяток друзей). Потом генеральша рассказывает о том, что во время спасательной операции в Ливии они с группой нашли сейф с бабками революционеров и поделили их между собой (ее доля $4,5 млн), а она просит меня на время своей службы похранить денги в себя за скромное вознаграждение в 30% до тех пор пока у нее служба не закончится, после чего она начнет новую жизнь.
Интересно, на это правда кто-то ведется?
Текст емейла:

My dear, I want you to know the problems we are facing here in Libya as a result of our military duty here in the war zone , as we are being attacked by insurgents every day and car bomb explosions. During one of our rescue mission we came across a safe box that contain huge amount of money that belongs to the revolutionaries, which I believe they use it in buying weapons and ammunition's, and it was agreed by the Army officers troop in present that the money will be shared among us.
Out of the total fund my share was $4,560,000 ( Four Million Five Hundred and Sixty Thousand united states Dollars ). I am seeking your assistance to evacuate my share of the money, which is $4,560,000 ( Four Million Five Hundred and Sixty Thousand united states Dollars ) out of here to you; in as much as you can assure me that my own share will be safe in your care until I complete my service here. This is not stolen money, and there are no dangers involved.
If you can be trusted, I will really want you to assure me that if this money gets to you in your country that you will not disappoint me, until when I will come to your country to collect the money from you . I would also want you to know that i have made a solid arrangements with a reliable security delivery company and they have promised to cooperate to deliver the funds through their diplomatic method to any of my choosing destination.
This delivery is going to be handle legally by the security company and there will not be any form of risk involve during the process and the money will be packaged safely in a military truck box case . Also, I have decide to compensate you with 30% of the total money once you received the money, while the rest balance shall be for my investment funds in your country.
Meanwhile; I do not know how long we going to remain here and my fate since I have survived two bomb attack here, which prompted me to search out for a reliable and trust worthy person to help me receive and invest the Fund, because I will be coming over to your home country to invest and start a new life not as a soldier anymore.

Еще небольшой лол - она прислала во вложении шесть фоток, на пятерых из которых одна и та же женщина в американской военной форме, а на шестой военный автомобиль. Фотки я, естественно, загуглил и нашел их настоящего хозяина https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flora_D._Darpino.
