The "Hector International Airport (FAR) Abandoned Shipment" Scam

Hector International Airport (FAR)

Attention: Sir,

I am Mr. Jeffrey D. Parnell, Head of Luggage Scanning / Inspection Department in Hector International Airport (FAR), North Dakota.

During our daily Luggage scanning and Inspection duties, I discovered an abandoned shipment through a Diplomat from the Middle East. We discovered a Metal Trunk Box of Cash Load weighing approximately 110kg (Internal dimension: W61 x H156 x D73 (cm) effective capacity: 680 L). The consignment was abandoned because the Content was not properly declared by the consignee as money rather it was declared as personal effect/classified document to either avoid diversion by the Shipping Agent or confiscation by the US government. The diplomat's inability to pay for Non-Inspection fees and false declaration was the reason why the consignment was abandoned by him.

By my assessment, the box contains about $4,000,000.00(Four Million United States dollars) or more. The box is still at the airport storage facility at this moment of sending you this message. We found your details attached to the documents that came along with the consignment box.

Having brought this to your knowledge, you have to reconfirm your (1) Full Name, (2) Phone Number, (3) Full Residential Address, so I can cross-check and see if it corresponds with the one on the attached documents.

It is now left for you to decide if you still need the consignment or want us to repatriate it back to the Middle East (place of origin). Like I did say again, the shipper abandoned it and ran away most importantly because he gave a false declaration and he could not secure a valid non-inspection document.

You can either come in person, or you engage the services of a secure shipping/delivery Company/agent that will provide the necessary security that is required to deliver the CONSIGNMENT to your doorstep or the destination of your choice. I am going to assist you in making sure the packages are delivered.

Your urgent response to this is required before the Customs takes hold of this consignment. Looking forward to hearing from you soon through my private email. (privateemailmessage@aol.com)

Best Regards,

Mr. Jeffrey D. Parnell
