The "Federal Ministry Of Finance World Compensation" Advance-fee Scam
an anonymous user from: Melbourne, Victoria, Australia

Have spent an hour emailing with Mr George S. Boutwell, the CEO at first and later the M.D. of the IRS, offering me by email, 2 new BMW cars and $70,000,000 sourced from the Federal Minister of Finance World Compensation.
His ID, submissions and evidence was so amateurish but George has not given up!!!
He is of course demanding $300 to enable me to receive my rewards!
He has just sent me a formal document from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security duly filled in with words and numbers all in different type faces and sizes AND it stated that it was signed and stamped by the President (which it wasn't) and the person who had to pay the $300 was Steven Blackman, NOT ME! Amazing!!!
Steven, thank you for stepping up to pay my COT fee so I can receive my huge rewards (except you can't deliver such huge amounts of money into Australia).
I am curious to know how many others are receiving this offer. Geoffrey J.A.F.

I got one of these today in my email spam folder. I started playing with him and wasted about 2 hours of his time.

If he doesn't catch on, we'll be talking more on Friday when he expects me to have a Bitcoin wallet.

I received one thru Whatsapp this morning. The man named Bruce said I have to send 50 dollars to pay for delivery. He attached a video of the package containing the cash as well as a video of himself sitting at a desk doing some writing.
