So I was contacted by the FBI

[Zach]

Federal Bureau of Investigation
J. Edgar Hoover Building93 Pennsylvania Avenue,
Nw Washington, D.C. 20535-0001


Attention Beneficiary,


This is to officially inform you that a foreign bank from West Africa have transferred funds worth $5.7 Million United States Dollars with your name as the beneficiary. This foreign bank knows that they do not have enough facilities to effect this payment from their location to your account and therefore they used what is known as Secret Diplomatic Transit Payment (S.T.D.P) to do this transfer and they are currently awaiting a confirmation from you for final crediting to your account. Secret diplomatic payments are not made unless the funds are related to terrorist activities, so if you are not intending to finance terrorism and your transaction is legitimate, why then did you agree to receive these funds through this means that was used instead of a direct transfer to your account?


Our findings shows that this method of transfer was used in the past to finance terrorist acts, so there is need to correct this problem now to avoid you getting into trouble when the funds reflects in your account.


We demand your immediate response with full details of the transaction you are doing that involved this huge sum because the funds are currently being held in our custody. You must provide us with a Diplomatic Immunity Seal of Transfer (DIST) within 3 days from the world local bank that authorized the fund transfer to certify that the funds you are about to receive are clean and free from terrorist and drug. If you fail to provide the Document to us, we will charge you with the financial crimes.



Awaiting your response.

Robert S. Mueller, III

(FBI Director)

[JohnCushman]

Congrats!!! What are you going to do with it all?

 

[Bambistew]

That definatly seems legit, its from the Director and everything. I would think impersonating an FBI agent may take this scam to the next level?

 

[trevore]

Man I'd jump all over that. I'm sure it's legit. You need to start planning some hunts.

 

[montanadogs]

With that amount of money I'm sure you could afford to take a few of us HTers on some dream hunts.

 

[noharleyyet]

[MHMT]

Any one see the Dateline special where a lady got the message like this one and lost her life savings?

"Diplomatic Immunity Seal of Transfer"

must be something special, I never heard of it.

"Secret diplomatic payments are not made unless the funds are related to terrorist activities, so if you are not intending to finance terrorism and your transaction is legitimate, why then did you agree to receive these funds through this means that was used instead of a direct transfer to your account?"

They do have a point.

[Bucnutz.wis]

If you fail to provide the Document to us, we will charge you with the financial crimes.
