I got the below message on this forum, it's just like the spam i get by email and bin straight away coz clearly its dodgy.

QuoteDear friend,

I am writing to enquire if you can handle a financial transaction involving transfer of a consideral amount of money to a third party bank account to be provided by you.

If you have the means and ability to handle such transaction without hitches, then let us discuss and agree modalities to get the fund transferred urgently.

Call me on my private telephone number 00234-803-220-0666 for full details. My alternative email address is [email protected].

Thank you.

Yours faithfully,
Dawson McAnthony

There's a "report to admin" link on private messages, which might have gotten this issue noticed much more quickly than a post to the boards.
