Example - Rev. James Wadewe wish to inform you that we have already prepared the ATM CARD on your favor and it's now activated and ready for use which you will use to be making ". United Bank for Africa (UBA)
Have you received an email from "Rev.James Wade", claiming
"we wish to inform you that we have already prepared the ATM CARD on your favor and it's now activated and ready for use which you will use to be making withdrawal of your fund in maximum amount of US$8,000 / US$10,000 per day in any ATM CARD center worldwide without any query from any authority, and the scanned copy of it is hereby attached for your perusal before the delivery will take place to your address."
How's that for a run-on gibberish sentence?Why do they want you to have an ATM card they allows you to withdraw $10,000 per day, if you just contact "United Bank for Africa (UBA)"?"Rev.James Wade" is a educated and highly ranking bank official who apparently can't spell and feels the odd need to randomly capitalize some WORDS (like that).

It's a mystery why Rev. James Wade named you as a beneficiary or what the "contract" is, but you better reply pretty quickly or risk losing millions from the "contract/inheritance payment file".Also notice that the "lawyer" or official is writing to you from a free email account (Yahoo, Hotmail, etc.); in fact, they typically use more than one different free email accounts.
