So there the story:

My friend (we will call her A live in Vietnam ) lend money long time ago to her friend (we called her B, living in USA), lately B called A to gave back money (10 000usd) she borrows to her, then asking her helping for transfer the funds, B gave to A her account number for testing the procedure, with a small transfer of around 1usd (to gain the trust of A) then B pretend to have sent the money already but it was intercepted by the fake IMF organization , and it will be released in exchange of a huge fee.

Then later , A received this Email:

As you can see the "fancy scary" title of the office :lolz:

join to the email, this PDF letter (click to enlarge)



If you pay attention:

In the Pdf letter , they ask money in GBP (british currency) instead of USD (remember the office is in USA...)
Their bank website adress is erroneous, it should be "accountant@mbna.com"
Their bank website domain name finish by "@accountant.com" , it should be "@name of the bank.com"

:lolz:
