Mail Scam Apparently Back Again
Sponsored by:
A familiar mail scam is apparently making the rounds again in the Mother Lode. This is the one where the intended victim is asked to allow an overseas wheeler-dealer to deposit several million dollars in his or her bank account in return for a cut.
This time the letter is from Nigeria, and supposedly deals with money from a Gulf War oil seizure. It could be coming to a mail box near you, so be warned.
