The "Nigerian Scam", which is a type of email scam, was mentioned in a previous post on internet scams. I must apologize to our Nigerian friends, who may be minded to object why this type of scam has come to be known as the "Nigerial Scam". Anyway, this scam just won't go away, probably because some still fall for it. Just minutes ago, I received this email: From : xxx xxx Bank Abidjan,Cote D'I Voire . Email: xxx Dear sir, Permit me to introduce my good self,my name is Mr. xxx. I work with the xxx Bank of Abidjan, Cote D'IVoire as an accountant Foreign operation department. In the discharge of my duty, I stumbled on this domiciliary account that has remained dormant for three years now with fifteen million dollars($15m)in it. I contacted my director and we sent out staff for enquiries and discovered that the account holder died in Auto-crash with the next of kin.i am writing you so that we can work with you to remit the money into your account as the next of kin. it is simple process which will take a short while to process. outside this, the bank management will confiscate the money. If I hear from you, I will tell you all you need to Know about the money. Thanks for your cooperation Regards Mr. xxx
