My name is Robert Williams. I am the Marketing Manager of Ferdinands Childrenswear Limited. We are specialist fashion retailer for kids aged 0-10 years old. We make supplies to our customers in the USA and Canada every week and some prefer making payments with US based Checks which are not easily cashed here in the UK. We are willing to employ you as our part-time PAYMENT REPRESENTATIVE in the States if you are capable and willing. This way we could have our customers issue our payments in your name and have them sent directly to you via courier service.

We do not need your account details or any personal info. This position will not affect your present job nor will you have to use your own resources. It will only cost you a little of your time when necessary. Please get back to us immediately if you are interested for further details. Reply to: marketing.managerr@live.com

Good Day,
Let me start by introducing myself. I am Mr. Patrick K.W. Chan (Executive Director and Chief Financial Officer) of the Hang Seng Bank Ltd. I have an obscured business suggestion for you.
Before the U.S and Iraqi war our client Gen. Abbas Radhi Ismail who was with the Iraqi forces and also businessman made a numbered fixed deposit for 18 calendar months, with a value of (Twenty Four million Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars only) in my branch. Upon maturity several notices was sent to him, even during the war which began in 2003. Again after the war another notification was sent and still no response came from him. We later find out that the General along with his wife and only daughter had been killed during the war in a bomb blast that hit their home.
After further investigation it was also discovered that Gen. Abbas Radhi Ismail did not declare any next of kin in his official papers including the paper work of his bank deposit. And he also confided in me the last time he was at my office that no one except me knew of his deposit in my bank. So, Twenty Four million Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars is still lying in my bank and no one will ever come forward to claim it. What bothers me most is that according to the laws of my country at the expiration of 5 years the funds will revert to the ownership of the Hong Kong Government if nobody applies to claim the funds.
Against this backdrop, my suggestion to you is that I will like you as a foreigner to stand as the next of kin to Gen. Abbas Radhi Ismail so that you will be able to receive his funds.
MODALITIES:
I want you to know that I have had everything planned out so that we shall come out successful. I have an attorney that will prepare the necessary document that will back you up as the next of kin to Gen. Abbas Radhi Ismail, all that is required from you at this stage is for you to provide me with your Full Names and Address so that the attorney can commence his job. After you have been made the next of kin, the attorney will also fill in for claims on your behalf and secure the necessary approval and letter of probate in your favor for the move of the funds to an account that will be provided by you.
There is no risk involved at all in this matter, as we are going adopt a legalized method and the attorney will prepare all the necessary documents. Please endeavor to observe utmost discretion in all matters concerning this issue.
Once the funds have been transferred to a nominated bank account we shall then share in the ratio of 70% for me, 30% for you. Should you be interested please send me the following:
1. Full names
2. Private phone/fax
3. Current residential address
and I will prefer you reach me on my private email address below and finally after that I shall provide you with more details of this operation.
Your earliest response to this letter will be appreciated.
Kind Regards
Mr. Patrick Chan.

Spammers find new ways to slip through

By Jon Swartz, USA TODAY

SAN FRANCISCO - Just when it appeared tech firms had the upper hand against spam, spammers have unleashed new forms of the meddlesome e-mail to trick filters.

Spam in the form of popular PDF e-mail attachments and electronic greeting cards is confounding e-mail security systems and annoying consumers. The recent Storm e-mail virus and several pump-and-dump stock scams are clogging inboxes and snookering consumers into downloading malicious software. And it could get worse as the holidays approach, anti-spam experts say.

The trend illustrates the shifting nature of spam's deceptive packaging. As anti-spam vendors come up with solutions, new versions pop up. The most common spam - which uses images to avoid the detection of spam filters - is quickly fading because of advances in anti-spam technology.

But spam in PDFs, non-existent in May, now accounts for 8% of unsolicited commercial e-mail. Last week, a PDF promoting a pump-and-dump scam contributed to a 30% increase in overall spam. It was sent from compromised PCs turned into spam-spreading bots, security firm Sophos says.

Faux electronic-greeting cards, containing links to viruses, have also picked up. Since mid-July, security firm Postini has blocked about 800 million copies of Storm, an e-mail virus masquerading as a greeting card. "It's a cat-and-mouse game, and PDFs are the latest twist," says Adam Swidler, senior marketing manager at Postini.

Spammers also are beginning to use Excel and Zip files.

As spam evolves, from text in the body of e-mail to images embedded in attachments, it has become more difficult for filters to identify, says Tom Gillis, co-founder of IronPort Systems, a security firm acquired by Cisco Systems (CSCO). "There is a social engineering element to this. People are more likely to open a PDF file or Excel document, which are more trusted."
