Fake Email Scam from 'Rosaline Mentrone' of "Fidel Securities Inc"

Be wary of anybody who would send you a note that starts with "Hello Dear" when you do not know the person. Furthermore when it ends with "My Good friend" when you're not friends with the person. Also, stay clear from anyone who still misspells "receive" in a supposed formal letter. Ever heard of spell check?

We googled "Rosaline Mentrone" and "Fidel Securities Inc" and neither one has online records of any kind. If you are in fact dealing with a legitimate contact, they should have an online presence of some sort. There were none here.

The letter also sounded like we already had previous contact with her when this is her first email to us. We were almost curious to check on the phone number and actually call but we don't have the time to play along if someone would answer. Perhaps a reader here might be brave enough to confront this person. Please be aware though. Do not fall into the trap! This is a scam email.

    I am so glad that I looked online first before doing anything. The person who is sending this has changed the name though it is now Mrs. Diana Rose along with the phone number.
