FBI Director Robert S. Mueller, III Not Spared from Email Scams

This is major criminal offense, impersonating a government official- an FBI Director at that. Interestingly, the scammer isn't giving any other details on how to contact him other than the email address: jege001@sbcglobal.net. What's more incredulous about this email is the scammer is warning against fraudulent people while the email in itself is fraudulent... Beware!

For Students, Job seekers and Business Owners, Email Scam from Charles Strube of Detroit, MI

This email does not make sense at all. The scammer gave an address and phone numbers in Michigan which turn out false as expected. This is clear and obvious scam, don't fall for it. Always investigate first. Typing names, phone numbers and address on Google search to verify the information is as easy as 1-2-3 these days- there's really no excuse for one to fall into the trap of scammers...

Your email has luckily won the sum of US$420,000 South African National Lottery. (Too bad it's a SCAM!!)

This scam email arrived in our G-mail inbox! We usually receive plenty in our Yahoo or Hotmail accounts. It is rare that we get them from G-mail. Is Google selling out to these kind of people now? Hmmm.
