Well, I haven't seen that one yet. I assume that you have forwarded it to the real FBI?

Can you share your $1.5 million wins with us and order a good pizza?

Service Hours / Monday to Saturday:

I could tell this was a scam when I got to the line above...open Monday to Saturday? A government office open on Saturday? Not in this country my friend.

could I have a loan?

No. You have to get your own billion dollars.

I thought they gave up with that one, oh maybe they just gave up on me lol!

DO NOT SHOP FOR THESE PEOPLE!!!! DOJ has the pickiest editors in the business, and FBI insists on background checks that take forever. ATCCD has ridiculous computer requirements to access their site, and don’t even get me started on the poor language skills and the indecipherable accents of UN schedulers. NCBI never has anything in my area, and POTUS only has shops in D.C. and Hawaii.
As far as all the MSCourts are concerned, don’t be fooled. They’ll find any reason to have your report dismissed, and just forget about ever trying to appeal a decision with “Supreme” MSCourt. Supreme pain in the a$$ is more like it!!!
As far as Ban Ki-moon, Bobby Doweny, and James Comey are concerned, well, let’s just say that none of them are ever getting invited to my house for dinner again. ‘Nuff said.
Seriously, DO NOT SHOP FOR THESE PEOPLE! The only thing worthwhile in this whole train wreck of a recruiting email that they sent you is their advice to “adhere strictly to directives.” I’ve worked with them long enough to know they mean it. You do not want to see them "dispense their duties!" (Hehe.)
However, I really don’t care if they drop me at this point, so if any of you want, go ahead and PM me the information that they’re asking for along with your checking account login info. Even if it burns every bridge I have with these people, I’ll make sure you get what you deserve - without them docking any of it as contrived “penalties.” Better include your mother’s maiden name and your SSN (or SIN for my sisters and brothers north of the border) as well.
But even if you don’t want to pursue payment, just be sure to NEVER SHOP FOR THESE PEOPLE!!!
Anyone who does will be doing so at his/her own risk. Seriously.

Haha. You said duties.

Hmph. I thought you went to bed.

Oops.

I won't go into too much detail, but when my husband had me convinced that flying to Amsterdam to meet someone was not out of the question, I called a friend who was retired from the Treasury Department, and who's daughter is Secret Service. There was no way I was going to let him out of the house. And, he used to watch Dateline with me and has an MBT (Masters of Business Taxation). Sometimes they are really, really good! I am glad we all had fun with this, and I am glad I got out of bed and came back online!!! But, at 7:10am PST, it is really past my bedtime!

My brother has just retired from the FTC/Labor Dept. He has a friend who is looking into the SCAM MSCs, so if anyone knows of some that they think should be investigated...PM me. When he asks me, I refer him to Cathy Stucker's site and her list of the "legit companies" that she has shopped with or researched.

Hugs

A little off topic, but I see these shows on t.v. all the time about "catfishing". I am sorry (and will probably draw a lot of flack), but if you are stupid enough to wire someone you have never met and claims to "love you" anywhere from $100k to over a million dollars, you probably deserve to be scammed.

That one is over the top. If the FBI wanted to reach you, they'll be at your door, not emailing. Thanks for the fun read.

When did the FBI start hiring people who can't spell and don't know English grammar? And why would the FBI be meeting with anyone at the United Nations (or the United Nation)?

What a riot. Now what was that address again

you guys are overlooking one important point. the FBI said don't tell anyone. so we must all promise not to tell anyone else if we are to share in the 1.5 mil. and one other thing, since there are so many of us, pmccut would you please mind asking them for a bit more. i would certainly like to have at lest $100,000 in order to take a trip to thank them.

I had the same experience with those MSCs as well. Also don't sign up with NSA unless you don't mind giving them all your personal info. I tried signing up with them but they wanted scanned copies of my driver's liscense, my passport, a recent photo, and the coordinates of my address off Google Maps! NO WAY!

been getting interesting calls from some B.S. stating something about the IRS............ oh, at the end of this lovely recording, it says, ". . and have a nice day.." AS IF the IRS would say THAT!

I got that call, too. They tell you what trouble you are going to be in and then they tell you to "have a nice day."

must be my son, that's how he ends every phone call, even to me.

I got the same email today. Very elaborate! I was impressed.

I like to reply something like this: "Your verbiage and syntax give you away." I figure that whoever sends this stuff will wonder what these words mean! Wish I could scam 'em back but that isn't me.

If you reply, then you have verified your email as being a good email address. It then becomes more valuable, and you will get more email. Report it as Spam to your email provider, then hit the delete key (with Gmail, it will already be gone). Do not reply under any circumstances.

myst4au is right but sometimes it is just too tempting to spam them right back. Hitting the reply button ten or twenty times just provides so much satisfaction.
