Central Bank of Nigeria $6 million ATM Card scam

Your ATM card of $6 million USD is scam. If you are just like me, I mean having received this same below quoted message, sorry to let you know that you have been targeted by scammers just like they did to me, and very many others out there. In fact, the reason as to why I chose to share this publicly is to make the public aware of this ongoing scam where many emails have been sent to different people all claiming the bouncing, and returning of the funds totaling yup to $6 Million USD.

In the email quoted below, which is sent by aq4@vpnsatnut using names Rev.Dr. Robert A. Edison with a return email to [email protected], one wonders why not address someone by real names instead of calling me a Sir when indeed am a Madam. Yes, the sender claims to be the new “Central bank of Nigeria Payments Director Foreign Affairs”. Below is the email received as quoted!

Just take your time and read through it, you will recognize that even the writing doesn’t fit for a person holding such a position as claimed. Somewhere in the message, he is addressed as a director while at some other point in the same message, he is addressed as a direct, and which makes me wonder..

Okay, now that you have known and seen something brief, one thing I can recommend you do is to simply ignore such emails. If you respond, you will be required to send some money through western union inform of delivery and processing fees and which is pure scam..
