이런 종류의 영어 스팸메일은..

게시글 주소: https://dev.orbi.kr/0001214538

가끔 이렇게 영어로 된 메일이 오는데요.. 물론 스팸, 사기메일이라는 건 알고 있는데

이런 메일들은 레파토리가 다 똑같잖아요. '남편의 돈이 아주 많은데 남편과 사별해서 재산을 안전하게 보관해야 함', '본인이 크리스찬인데 재산이 아주 많고 병에 걸렸음, 그래서 같은 기독교인들에게 재산을 기부하려함' 아래 온 메일 내용은 무슨 변호사가 자기 의뢰인이 죽었다는 둥.. 웃긴게 꼭 걸린 병은 심장병이라고 하고..

이런 진부한 내용 끝에는 꼭 '관심이 있으면 답장을 보내달라' 이렇게 끝나잖아요. 근데 이런 메일의 발신자들은 답장을 받아서 뭐에 써먹는 건가요? 잘 꼬드겨서 신상 정보같은걸 캐내는건가??

또 외국사이트 가입 한군데도 안되있는데 이넘들이 대체 내 메일 주소는 어떻게 알고 보내는건지..

내용은 별거 없지만 간간히 받아서 독해 연습지문으로 활용하고 있긴 한데.. 이런 메일이 왜 오는건지 너무 궁금해요-_-;

이런 메일 자주 받는 분들 또 없어요?? 나한테만 자주 오는건가;..

(이건 오늘 받은 사기메일)

Hello,

I am GAY CHOON HEE JIMMY, attorney at law with many years of practice. I was an attorney to a late client of mine who died in Malaysia of a heart related condition in 2008. My reason of sending you this email is to help secure the funds left behind by my client before it is confiscated or declared unserviceable by the Holding Institution where this fund valued at 8.6m usd was deposited.

Since you do have the same last name with my deceased client, I would want to present you as the legitimate Close Relative with all legal documents required backing the claim up. The holding Institution has issued me a notice to contact the Close Relative, or the account will be confiscated, and so far, all my efforts to get hold of someone related to this man have proved abortive.

This is my proposition; I am asking for your consent to present you to the holding Institution as the Close Relative of my deceased client, since you have the same last name, so that the proceeds of this account can be paid to you. Then we can share the amount on a mutually agreed-upon percentage. I do have a good standing in Malaysia, it is my assurance that this proposition will be successful and that I will make sure that the proposition is done within the applicable laws to guarantee full legitimacy.

All legal documents to back up your claim as my client's Close Relative will be provided by me. All I require is your honest cooperation to enable us see this transaction through. This will be executed under a legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any breach of the law. However, if this proposition offends your moral values, do accept my apology.

Please contact me at once to indicate your interest. Do understand that this proposition does require utmost confidence and you should keep this mail to yourself not withstanding if you are rejecting the transaction or accepting it. Note that I reserve the right to reject your acceptance of this proposal if I have reasons to believe that you may not be honest or discreet as it concerns this proposition. Further details will be giving as soon as your interest is indicated.
