Subject : YOUR KIND ATTENTION
Dear Friend,
Brief Introduction, Am Ms Stella Evans 32years old, citizen of London Uk, a purchasing manager to a company in Uk called MACGROVE COMPANY,PLC LONDON.
Kindly give attention to this letter, though it will bring surprise to you as it comes from a strange person.
Due to my condition now, i honorable demand for your co-operations, honest, reliability and sincerely on this transaction as my Friend / business partner, i have deliberated it in my mind and decided to contact you and offer you this business proposal.
I have decided to intimate you personally and discreetly with this business proposal which will be of mutual benefit to both of us. When i was pursuing through your profile, I became aware of your credibility, I use to come to Malaysia to purchase a certain product called ZIRCONLINE MULTI CLEANSER GEM.
Now i will no more be able to make my trip to Malaysia as normal does because of my health, I have been diagnosed with Esophageal Cancer which was discovered very late, due to my laxity in caring for my health. It has defiled all forms of medicine, and right now am on admission in the hospital that will take few months according to medical director.
Though my company have arranged to send my assistant for the mission to purchase the products on behalf of my company which i normally bought in Malaysia. For the fact that i do buy the product ( ZIRCONLINE MULTI- CLEANSER GEM ) at the rate of ($2,500 u.s dollars) per a carton of six bottles and re-sold to my company at rate of ($4,000 u.s dollars)
The ZIRCONLINE MULTI CLEANSER GEM is a new scientific chemical fluid substance manufactured in North Korea , its of lubricant, mainly used in the gemological laboratory for the purification of diamonds clarity treatment, it penetrate deep into diamond and vaporizes out black inclusion in diamonds and other precious stones listed below:-
(1) Tanzanite
(2) Citrine
(3) Pink topaz
(4) Aquamarine
(5) Ruby
(6) Sapphire
(7) Zircon (both blue and colorless)
These product are rare and highly demanded by my company in Britain, though not long it came to existence, it was introduce to our company by a Chinese friend, Mrs Jessy Chau, a gemologist in USA, who gave me a sample for text on my last visit to the United States.
After our companies research on this product, I discovered it in Malaysia and i have been going to Malaysia for the purchases .
Now i will no more be able to make my trip to Malaysia as normal does because of my health,
I have been diagnosed with Esophageal Cancer which was discovered very late, due to my laxity in caring for my health. It has defiled all forms of medicine, and right now am on admission in the hospital that will take few months according to medical director.
My company needs this product now and they are arranging to send my assistant for the mission to purchase the products which i normally bought in Malaysia.
For the fact that i do buy the product ( ZIRCONLINE MULTI- CLEANSER GEM ) at the rate of ($2,500 u.s dollars) per a carton of six bottles and re-sold to my company at rate of ($4,200 u.s dollars) and i don't want the company to know about this therefore, i now wish to appoint you as my local agent in Malaysia, so that the assistant purchasing manager who will soon be in Malaysia will have to buy the products through you in other to protect my former dealings.
I have not particularly lived my life so well, as I never really cared to have a friend then in Malaysia but focus on my business as that was the only thing I cared for.
But now I regret all this as i now know that there is more to life than just wanting to have or make all. Now that my health has deteriorated so badly, I cannot do this my self for now.
Iam offering you 50% of the total proceeds ( profit ) from any of the deals whenever he comes to make the purchase of the products as its going to be a continuous business until i stand back on my feet while 40% is for me and 10% would be your local and international operational costs during each of the business transactions in Malaysia.
This transaction is completely risk free to you and will last a day or two days only. I don't want the person they will be sending to know the cost price that i have been buying the product in Malaysia.
The dealer of this product is a Malaysian lady, I want to introduce you as the dealer to my Company so that my representative will buy it from you as i will give you the contacts of the Malaysia lady so that you can contact her on your own and arrange, why the assigned purchase manager will meet you and buy it from you.
If you promise to be faithful to me by sending my percentage after the transaction with my company, i will now send you all the details you need for the business.
I need a trustworthy person that will handle this business for me until i stand back on my feet. I want truth & honest to be our watch word.
While waiting for your positive and urgent reply.
Warmest regards
Stella Evans

FTC - Potential Charity Scams Updates
The Federal Trade Commission is urging consumers to be cautious of potential charity scams in connection with the recent floods and tornadoes that have caused damage in the Midwest.
Scam artists may take advantage of this situation by creating bogus fund-raising operations. The FTC has issued a Consumer Alert, the “FTC Charity Checklist,” which lists precautions consumers should take when donating to charities.
The alert, available at http://www.ftc.gov/bcp/edu/pubs/consumer/alerts/alt114.shtm, advises consumers to be wary of appeals that tug at your heart strings, especially pleas involving current events. If you are asked to contribute to a charity, the FTC recommends that you:
Ask for the name of the charity if the telemarketer does not provide it promptly;
Ask what percentage of your donation will support the cause described in the solicitation :-
- Call the charity to find out if it's aware of the solicitation and has authorized the use of its name.
- Do not provide any credit card or bank information until you have reviewed all information from the charity and made the decision to donate.
- Ask for a receipt showing the amount of the contribution and stating that it is tax deductible; and
- Avoid cash gifts. For security and tax record purposes, it's best to pay by check – made payable to the beneficiary, not the solicitor.
To order copies of this or other FTC Consumer Alerts, visit http://www.ftc.gov/ftc/contact.shtm#publications.
The FTC works for the consumer to prevent fraudulent, deceptive, and unfair business practices in the marketplace and to provide information to help consumers spot, stop, and avoid them.
To file a complaint, or to get free information on consumer issues, visit http:// http://www.ftc.gov/ or call toll-free, 1-877-FTC-HELP (1-877-382-4357); TTY: 1-866-653-4261.
The FTC enters Internet, telemarketing, identity theft, and other fraud-related complaints into Consumer Sentinel, a secure online database available for more than 1,600 civil and criminal law enforcement agencies in the U.S. and abroad.

FBI - Phishing and Vishing Attacks Targeting Users of EPPICards
The IC3 has received reports of phishing attacks targeting users of EPPICards.
The EPPICard is similar to a debit card.
EPPICards are issued by a state agency for the purpose of receiving child-support payments. The cards are currently used in 15 states.
Individuals have reported receiving e-mail or text messages indicating a problem with their account. They are directed to follow the link provided in the message to update their account or correct the problem.
The link actually directs the individuals to a fraudulent web site where their personal information, such as account number and PIN, is compromised.
Individuals have also reported receiving an e-mail message asking them to complete an online survey. At the end of the survey, they are asked for their EPPICard account information to allow funds to be credited to the account in appreciation for completing the survey. Providing this information will allow criminals to compromise the account.
EPPICard providers indicate they are not affiliated with survey web sites and do not solicit personal information via email or text messages.
Please be cautious of unsolicited e-mails. Do not open e-mails from unknown senders because they often contain viruses or other malicious software. Also, avoid clicking links in e-mails received from unknown senders as this is a popular method of directing victims to phishing websites.
If you have received an e-mail similar to this, please notify the IC3 by filing a complaint at http://www.ic3.gov/.

American Red Cross - Latest Scam Involving Military Family
The American Red Cross has learned about a new scam targeting military families.
This scam takes the form of false information to military families as described below:-
The caller (young-sounding, American accent) calls a military spouse and identifies herself as a representative from the Red Cross. The caller states that the spouse's husband (not identified by name) was hurt while on duty in Iraq and was med-evacuated to a hospital in Germany. The caller stated they couldn't start treatment until paperwork was accomplished, and that in order to start the paperwork they needed the spouse to verify her husband's social security number and date of birth. In this case, the spouse was quick to catch on and she did not provide any information to the caller.
The American Red Cross representatives typically do not contact military members/dependents directly and almost always go through a commander or first sergeant channels. Military family members are urged not to give out any personal information over the phone if contacted by unknown/unverified individuals, to include confirmation that your spouse is deployed.
It is a federal crime, punishable by up to 5 years in prison, for a person to falsely or fraudulently pretend to be a member of, or an agent for, the American National Red Cross for the purpose of soliciting, collecting, or receiving money or material.
In addition, American Red Cross representatives will contact military members/dependents directly only in response to an emergency message initiated by your family. The Red Cross does not report any type of casualty information to family members. The Department of Defense will contact families directly if their military member has been injured. Should any military family member receive such a call, they are urged to report it to their local Family Readiness Group or Military Personnel Flight.
The American Red Cross ensures that the American people are in touch with their family members serving in the United States military by operating a communications network that is open 24-hours, 7 days-a-week, 365 days-a-year. Through a network of employees and volunteers at Red Cross national that link families during emergencies, access to emergency financial assistance, confidential counseling, community support headquarters, local chapters, on military installations, and deployed with troops, the Red Cross offers a broad range of services. Among these services, the Red Cross provides communications for families left behind, assistance to veterans, and preparedness courses for military personnel and their families
The American Red Cross helps people prevent, prepare for and respond to emergencies. Last year, almost a million volunteers and 35,000 employees helped victims of almost 75,000 disasters; taught lifesaving skills to millions; and helped U.S. service members separated from their families stay connected. Almost 4 million people gave blood through the Red Cross, the largest supplier of blood and blood products in the United States. The American Red Cross is part of the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement. An average of 91 cents of every dollar the Red Cross spends is invested in humanitarian services and programs. The Red Cross is not a government agency; it relies on donations of time, money, and blood to do its work.

Refund Notification Email Scam Purportedly From The IC3
Latest Email Scams - Refund Notification Email Scam Purportedly From The IC3
Consumers need to be aware of e-mail schemes containing various versions of fraudulent refund notifications purportedly from the IC3 and the government of the United Kingdom. The e-mails claim the refunds are being made to compensate the recipients for their losses as victims of Internet fraud.
The perpetrators of this fraud use the names of people not associated with the IC3 but give them titles in an attempt to make the e-mails appear official. The perpetrators use the IC3's logo and the former name of the IC3, the Internet Fraud Complaint Center (IFCC), as well as the names of the Bank of England and the Metropolitan Police in the e-mails.
The e-mails promise refunds of thousands of dollars which are to be sent via bank wire transfer from the "bank of England" once the victim signs a "fund release order." The e-mails contain warnings that failure to sign the order will place the funds on hold and a penalty will be applied.
As with most spam, the content contains elements which are evidence of fraud such as: multiple spelling errors, poor grammar, agency names, signatures of officials and titles to appear authentic, and a warning for failure to comply. In some of the e-mails, the names of the officials do not match the signatures.
Consumers always need to be alert when they receive an unsolicited e-mail. Remember: do not open unsolicited e-mail or click on any links embedded in the e-mail, as they may contain a virus or malware.
If you have received an e-mail similar to this, please file a complaint at http://www.ic3.gov/.
