Lifetime MemberBEWARE.... I got 2 scams today, one by snail mail, the other by email. The first is the email and they sure are getting sneaky. They play on people's faith and sympathies:
Greetings.
Greetings to you and your family in the name of God,in my search for a reliable and God fearing person and having gotten your contact through prayers and pains taking efforts via searching I made on the internet on my bed side. Presently, I'm in a hospital where I have been undergoing treatment for Oesophagi Cancer.
Though its a sad and long story but I will cut it short for your quick and easy understanding. I am Helen Ibeku (Mrs), widow to Late Mr. Edward Ibeku, former Defence attachee to Greece Embassy in Cote D'Ioire. My husband was murdered alonside our only son Elvis by those who are envious of his position in the same office.
Before his death he made a vow to use his wealth for the down trodden,orphanages and the less privileged in the society. Having known my condition I decided to donate this fund to an individual or better still a God fearing person who will utilize this money the way I am going to instruct here in. I want an individual that will use this fund and provide succor to poor and indigent persons, orphanages, and widows and for the propagating peace.
I took this decision because I do not have any child that will inherit this money and my husband relatives are not inclined to helping poor persons and I do not want my husband's hard earned money to be misused or spent in the manner in which my late husband did not specify. I do not want a situation where this money will be used in an ungodly manner.
What is required of you is your honesty, trust and sincerity. Any delay in your reply will give me room in sourcing for another individual for this same purpose.
May God Almighty bless you.
Helen Ibeku (Mrs).

The second is a letter from US Airlines saying I had qualified for 2 roundtrip airline tickets to anywhere in the Continental U.S. with a $1298. reward value. Naturally, I Googled it and found out it is a scam that has been going around for several years. There is no US Airlines and they had a heading that looked like the one from US Airways. Also, they capitalized Continental and I'm sure hoped people would put Continental and Airlines together for a valid airline company.
Just thought I'd remind everyone that if get something like this and it sounds too good to be true, IT IS.
