I’m sorry if these get repetitious but I find them funny but sad as well since people do fall for them. It’s another take on "you can get money here" scams. First they scam you by promising that you can get money – then they scam you by saying you’ve been scammed and that they can help you get your money back.
PLEASE STAY AWAY from all of these.

These are so like the old Nigerian scam letters that used to come in the mail box – but with widespread internet usage they have proliferated. Sadly they abound since people do fall for them. It’s a good deed to warn older family members and neighbors about these kinds of emails.
