How's that a 'new' scam style?

 

[ussfletcher]

I get ones all the time that ask me to send my bank information so the head of a bank can wire me like 30 million dollars in embezzled funds.

I see enough of these that it takes me half a second to identify as spam and delete. I sincerely hope people aren't falling for these.

I don't see the problem, they sent me my $850,000.
Someone tries to do a good thing and you guys find fault with it. Typical ATOT :roll:
