Overseas money scam

I wouldn't bother. They get hundreds of thousands of emails for that scam so they're well aware of it. It just gets logged. A waste of your time as they do nothing.

Thank you Phoenix, I've looked at Action Fraud and you're correct, it's the right place to report it. Got to do it on a desktop computer as the form online isn't compatible with tablets.

One of my first posts to GN was about this very scam, I was getting several a week.
This was about 6 years ago.
I haven't had one since that first flurry.

Gosh, have they revived this old scam. I think the Nigerian scam, as it was, was one of the first ever scams about 20 years ago. I thought it had stopped because everyone became wise to it.

Still there must be a new generation of greedy fools grown up who will have been too young to fall for it first time round, possibly still in nappies then.

Such a frequent scam, but try reporting it to Action Fraud (at least I think that's what they are called).
