The "Charleston International Airport" Advance Fee Scams Being Sent by Online Scammers

The fake "Charleston International Airport" email below is a scam. Recipients are asked to delete it and should not follow the instructions in it. The fake email is being sent by scammers who are attempting to trick their potential victims into sending them money or personal information. An advance-fee scam is a form of fraud and one of the most common types of confidence trick. The scam typically involves promising the victim a significant share of a large sum of money, in return for a small up-front payment, which the fraudster requires in order to obtain the large sum.

Very Urgent!!!

My Name is Mr. Andrew J. Savage, III, Senior Storage officer at Charleston International Airport (CHS) SC USA. During our recent withheld package routine check at the Airport Storage Vault, we discovered an abandoned shipment from one Diplomat agent, under shipping forwarder from Hatfield-Jackson Atlanta Intl Airport to our facility custody here in Charleston International Airport SC and when scanned, it revealed an undisclosed sum of money in one Metal Trunk Box.

The consignment was abandoned because the Contents of the consignment was not properly declared by the consignee as MONEY rather it was declared as personal effect to avoid diversion by the shipping agent or inability of the diplomat to pay for United States Inspection charges.

The details of the consignment including your name/address and official documents from United Nations were tagged on the consignment box, Please note that this consignment supposed to return to the United States Treasury Account as an unclaimed fund due to your delays in contacting us for the claims.

So i will urgently advise you to write back for further instruction on how to claim your fund which await delivery at Charleston International Airport SC immediately.

Warmest Regards,

Mr. Andrew J. Savage, III, the Senior Storage officer at Charleston International Airport SC.
