<nettime> FW: Loan |
This is the 4th of these I've received in the last day or so--all from gmail accounts. Someone suggested that it has to do with the gmail hack that was reported about a year ago but I've seen nothing anywhere on what might be going on. (presumably an indication that the emails and passwords were sold in bulk to some phisherman somewhere... seems like a rather low value use for these if it is the case... Comments Mike -----Original Message----- From: [mailto: xxx @gmail.com] Sent: Thursday, June 09, 2011 7:45 AM Subject: Loan I just hope you get this email on time. Well I'm quite optimistic that all is well with you. I just want you to know that I'm presently in Spain for a conference. Kindly pardon my ignorance for not informing you about this urgent trip and for reaching out to you this way. I'm actually facing some difficulties here, so I thought it expedient for me to confide in you and I will be glad to have this confidential between us. Unfortunately for me, I got robbed with my friend right in his flat here in Spain. Though I wasn't hurt, I'm mentally and physically ok, but my money, mobile phone and my bags with some vital documents were taken away by these guys. In fact I'm left with no money. I'm urgently in need of some money to execute my major objectives of being here and to balance my bills till my departure next weekend. kindly lend me a sum of 2500euros [approximately $3300 us dollars] or any amount you can afford to lend me. I will refund you with interest upon my arrival back home. Let me know if you would be able to help me out with this money or any amount you can afford, I can then forward you the details on how to make the transfer directly on my name via the western union money transfer service. I will really appreciate your concerned and fast response. Thanks & Regards. xxxx singularity | Archives <https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/11983/=now> <https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/rss/11983/4071869-476c0ef5> | Modify <https://www.listbox.com/member/?member_id=4071869&id_secret=4071869-6010fee 0> Your Subscription <http://www.listbox.com> # distributed via <nettime>: no commercial use without permission # <nettime> is a moderated mailing list for net criticism, # collaborative text filtering and cultural politics of the nets # more info: http://mx.kein.org/mailman/listinfo/nettime-l # archive: http://www.nettime.org contact: nettime@kein.org
