I have heard about emails from far away countries asking for help. They say if i would help them then they will give me lots of money. I have not given into the scam BUT I know there is a place to forward these scams to or something. In fact there was an expose on TV a few nights ago but I dont know the station it was on. Please be cautious when reading these emails. They are just a way to get your money and they have no inteniton of giving you anything but heartache.
Thanks in advance, Sandy

SUBMIT YOUR COMPLAINTS TO THE "IC3 / INTERNET CRIME COMPLAINT CENTER" MAKE SURE YOU KEEP ALL INBOX & OUTBOX MAIL
YOUR LOCAL POLICE DEPARTMENT CAN LEAD YOU IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION IF YOU HAVE ANY PROBLEMS.

In addition, you can forward them to spamcop who will send notification to their ISP.

Do not open any attachments. I always copy/paste the email to a new email with the full headers to these two addresses:
The only place i know to send these horrid emails is to send them to this site: http://www.breakthechain.org/ I always check here when i have been sent dubious emails. I hope this helps you. Good luck Monique x UK
