Scammers
The scammers that send these fraud letters are criminals. They want your money, and they use force to get it, if that is necessary. Secret Service has a warning on that here. I found such stories hard to believe until I recently was contacted by a friend. One of his friends, let me call her S, was killed in

I need you to put this in your site so everyone comes to know that "Even the people who ask for money for there treatment is scammers ". This is the main aim that we need to show people. I f you place this in your site , people will be aware that " Illness is also a reason which scammers are using to spoils any girls live by raping her, and also scamming the money , and everyone gets aware".
Mail from a stranger:
Did you receive a letter from a complete stranger promising you millions? Or did you receive an offer for millions of dollars while you were dating on the net?
I have received a lot of these letters, and they are all filled with lies. There is below an example of them.
Maybe your letter was similar to one of mine?
Maybe you received a letter telling you that you won in a lottery that you never heard of?
- Or maybe someone offered to an easy work-at-home job, where you have to receive money on behalf of a company?
If scammers failed to get you as a victim, they might try again with the use of a compensation letter.
