Italian ex-Prime Minister Needs Your Help
Here’s a new one I received today, and I just had to post it; screenshot below - don’t tell anyone, it is supposed to be a secret:
A larger screenshot, for those of us that need it, can be found here.
Poor old Mr Berlusconi needs your help in moving some ‘funds’ before they all get frozen by the authorities investigating him for alleged ‘fraud’. Poor man, don’t you feel sorry for him?
Well, whether he is innocent or guilty is irrelevant, as far as it has to do with this request anyway. Why? Well, guess what, the e-mail isn’t from Mr Berlusconi, or indeed anyone acting on his behalf. Are you surprised? Well, you shouldn’t be…Shame on you! 
The e-mail is just the latest use of a well known person [well, at least in Europe], to use as bait by those inventive boys and girls from Lagos, also known as the 419ers. This is just their later scam e-mail. There is no money, if you get involved with this, then the money will only be flowing one way, from you to them.
Don’t you just love the wording “…rest assured that this transaction would be done legally…“, yeah right, and since when has it been legal to launder money, even if it really existed?
