If I got message like that is tell them to shag off as clearly a scam DTG for all there faults would never sink so low
Don’t even waste your time they won’t answer and most of the time it’s a bot I just reported to DTG and they banned him immediately Guess giving all his wealth made him poor and he had to reconvert into a new category
Unknown Village (who would put a Gold Mining Company HQ in a Village…), Unknown supposed high value company, Un professional email address for Gold company, contacted via a train and fishing games company forum seems trustworthy…
A friend of mine, well ex friend! Handed over £4000 to some inheritance scam a while ago. Then another £2000 to the FBI. Obviously wasn't the FBI. But goes to show people do fall for it!
It is rather astonishing some of the things they come up with! I think the stupidest one I've come across was someone knocking on my door claiming to be the transport secretary and said he was there as they were planning to build a 'new super terminus' for the 'railway of the future' right where my house sits and so he needed to 'temporarily borrow' my bankcard so that Borris Johnson could give me money for my house. If that isn't bad enough I live in a village in the countryside with a very small population surrounded by farms but to be fair my house does back on to the ECML so that must have been his inspiration. He very quickly scurried of when I highly over dramatised/changed my accent to become the next member of the Wurzels (if you don't know what I mean search the combine harvester by the Wurzels on the youtube) and haven't heard from him since!
Wow, gold mining is a new one. Nigerian Prince or long lost family member no longer popular because so many people got wise to it. Most of the scam emails I get are telling me I have a parcel due to be delivered or that said parcel couldn't be delivered so they need money to deliver it. I'm wise to the tricks they use and a lot of them are from GMail addresses so super easy to spot, especially with their bad spelling and addresses full of randomly generated letters and numbers jumbled together. Some of these scam emails do sometimes slip through the net of the spam filters of email providers though.
