Advance Fee Frauds and Email Scams
CHIN FUNG TRADING LIMITED (2005)
This is one message from a collection of email scams. We don’t send these messages! We just collect the ones we receive and document them here for the benefit of others; we are not able to respond to inquiries about them. These are often called “Nigerian” advance fee frauds or “419 scams,” although they now originate from all over the world. There is information available elsewhere on the web that will help you filter spam and protect yourself against fraud.
If you have already been victimized by an email scam like the one shown below you may wish to contact a lawyer or postal inspector in your state or country.
