Secondly, you are hereby advised to stop dealing with some non-officials in the bank as this is an illegal act and will have to stop if you so wish to receive your payment immediately.

Mrs. Irene Nakande is a bit aggressive in this email, telling me that not only have I not fulfilled my obligations, but I am to stop dealing with whomever I have not been dealing with in the first place.

Irene says she/they have a file on me, however, they fail to address me by name. I am expecting anyone to have a file on me to know that my name is not Sir/Madam, and furthermore, I expect them to already have the personal information on me that they are requesting I now send.

It’s all a scam, and it falls under the Contract/Inheritance variation of the Nigerian 419 scams.

By the way, this email came as a text document attachment. A lot of these emails are sent that way in an attempt to slip them past spam filters. Didn’t work on this one ….
