This morning our bank received a fax from Rosa Savimbi soliciting help....She stated that her husband had been killed during combat in Central Eastern Province in Mexico, Angola. She then left Angola and was able to take along $48 million US dollars with her to Mauritius. The money was then seized by Mauritius authorities and held as photo material and artifacts of a foreigner with a security company for safe keeping. She is wanting assistance in getting her funds from overseas by offering a precentage of it. This all sounds like a great big scam to me, however for the fun of it I ran her name and her late husbands name and his Companies name thru the OFAC checker. Guess what??? I got a hit on the husbands name and the name of his company....So what do I do now??? All I have is a fax and some phone numbers..

Call OFAC.

What are the odds?

I got the very same fax this morning, and I am in Missouri?
These letters are coming now at least 2 times per week. I have noticed that the amount of these have increased. It will be impossible to send or report all of these. What a mess!
