Recipients of emails like the one below, which claim that an abandoned package was found in their names at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, are asked not to follow the instructions. This is because the emails are fake and phishing scams being sent by online scammers, to trick online users into sending them their personal information and, subsequently tricking the same online users into sending them money for a package that doesn't exist.

Subject: Overdue Consignement Delivery
Dear Recipient,
I am from Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, Georgia. A forfeited and false declared Consignment is deposited here at the restricted bonded warehouse for auditing. On routine inspection, I discovered this forfeited consignment with your email address on the bill of entry manifest. The Value of the cash stuffed consignment was not declared but assumed approximately 10 Million USD. It was forfeited because of false declaration by the Consignee and the delivery officers 'inability to pay the Non Inspection Clearance fee (NI). The Consignment was originally declared as personal effect while the real content is cash money.
I solicit your acceptance to use my position to clear and deliver this Consignment to you on condition that I will be compensated after receipt. Indicate your acceptance by forwarding:
1. Your Full Name.
2. Home phone & Cell Phone
3. Home delivery address.
4. Airport Closest to you.
5. Any form of Identification either Drivers license or International Passport.
All communication must be private because we don't want this hackers to hack the Consignment And Once the clearance is completed I will deploy the service of a secured dispatch company that will deliver to your doorstep okay.
Regards,
Mr. Lopez Marthins.
