Today's scam mail:

from: "Ms.Carman L. Lapointe" <[email protected]>

UNITED NATIONS OFFICE OF INTERNATIONAL OVERSIGHT SERVICES
Internal Audit,Monitoring,Consulting And Investigations Division


From: Ms.Carman L. Lapointe
Attention: Beneficiary,
This is to inform you that I came to Nigeria yesterday from London, after series of complains from the FBI and other Security agencies from Asia, Europe, Oceania, Antarctica, South Erica and the United States of America
Respectively, against the Federal Government of Nigeria and the British Government for the rate of scam activities going on in these two nations.
I have met with the New President of Federal Republic of Nigeria President Good luck Ebele Jonathan of who claimed that he has been trying his best to make sure you receive your fund in your account since he was elected as president.
Right now, as directed by our secretary general Mr. Ban Ki-Moon, We are working in collaborations with the Nigerian Economic and Financial Crime Commission (EFCC) and have decided to waive away all your clearance fees/Charges and authorize the Government of Nigeria to effect the payment of your compensation of an amount of $10.5M approved by both the British government and the UN into your account without any delay. The only fee you will pay to confirm your fund into your account is your Notarization fee, which will cost you only but $265, 00 united state dollars, to the UN.
Sincerely, you are a lucky person because I have just discovered that some top Nigerian and British Government Officials are interested in your fund and they are working in collaboration with One Mr.Richard Graves from USA to frustrate you and thereafter divert your fund into their personal account.
I have a very limited time to stay in Nigeria here so I would like you to urgently respond to this message so that I can advise you on how best to confirm your fund in your account within the next 72 hours.


Sincerely yours,
Ms. Carman L. Lapointe
United Nations Under-Secretary-
General for Internal Oversight

I honestly cannot understand why anyone would respond to this. :roll: JMO

Welcome to Scamwarners.
It's probably aimed at people already caught up in an advance fee fraud. There's no honor among scammers, and they are quite happy to try an hijack someone else's scam.
And you can't rule out the possibility of a few people being prepared to claim the money without any explanation of it source.
