Another Thailand Scam ???

Dear My Fellow Sawatdeans:

I have become awre of the private and confidential correspondence quoted here. It was posted unsolicited in the guest book of my anonymous blog under a domain in Tuvalo . I'm not sure what I should do with it. It sounds like I could make a connection with tji s guy and end up putting a large sum om money into my high interest internationally currency enabled baht based savings account at Soros Bank BKK ltd #45F6980765-3 code SWFT697Z.

I have XXXXXXXXXXXX 'ed out certain KeY pieces of information from the correspondence in order not to divulge certain information that might otherwise cause others to assume or suspect that I am in ANY way attempting to act as a conduit and possibly even in the remotest or direct sense be altogether or in conspiracy 'connected' with the contact or any of his partner associates, wHaTeVer his or thier intentions.

I mean, NINE MILLION Dollars! It sounds like I could really win that lottery I've only DREAMED forever about here. I could tell them all just to go to hell, buy the company. I'd put everyone in the company I hate in one group under the guy I hate the most. The tables would TURN I tell ya. That would be so great. I could even early then retire. I'd stay in the most expensive hotels in Italy, travel to the most exotic destinations and just pay cash for that Condom inium in Koh Santa.

But I don't know. The way it's written. I know that it COULD be ascam. Could he be no more than some creap? I could some money here. Anyway, I wanted to ask my fellow Sawatdeeans what they thought. Do u think I should try? I might consider to report this properly to the police at the www.police.bkk.th.org (http://www.pak.gov.pk/profile.aspx), however, such contact could result in the exposure of my rather tenuous situation concerning the number of days I have been staying on my 30 day no visas.

A poll on waht I should do? What are the suggestions? Maybe someone could help me here? I'd try but I am pretty much a complete klutz when it comes to theis board things. Where everr is he when we want him? I do so very very much MISS him from this board.

What should I do?

Does anyone have any idea where that is?

That's not MY last name!

Arnold, I'd suggest you have Maria slap you silly if you're dumb enough to believe any of that crap. Rather old scam.

Hmmmm. You may be right.

Does she have a feather duster? Battery operated?

ArNoid, you must report this to the Bangkok Police immediately. It is obvious these people know your name and your email address. Danger can come your way if you ignore these types of emails. Please protect yourself...I do not want to see any harm come your way.

oh god, relax you old queens! any spammer on the net
has your name and email address. let me guess, you
buy your generic viagra online shipped from india, don't
you?

it's spam. duh! surely you guys can come up with some-
thing better to be dramatic about. what are you going
to report to the police?? yes, officer...i got spammed.
help me!!

I daily receive these kind of emails on my hotmaila account. Delete them immediately. They are only after your personal ID info.

Since this comes from Malaysia it cannot be a scam. Malaysia is not like Nigeria and it is impossible for Nigerians to disguise themselves behind Malaysian e-mail addresses.

BTW I have a nice bridge for sale here just north of Bermondsey, if you are interested.

[Blueskytoday]

I receive about 10 to 15 scam e-mails daily.
They are all basically the same..
Don't be dumb enough to fall for any of this crap.
You will only LOSE your money.
