Seems legit...
$850,000 ?
Where do I sign up?
Same team designed ObamaCare!
Definitely fake because the amount of free money is too low. Everyone at the world banks understands that everyone on the planet should be a millionaire. When they do this for real we are looking at $2-3M each easy.
I Don't Take Fiats USD's ...
Please, You Are To Be Sending My $850K In The 24K Bars GOLD ...
... My WB Bitchez...
Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee ...
... Q-E For EVERYBODY...
Are the WB and our WB7... mmm... relatives? ;-)
Looney
P.S. WB7 - WilliamBanzai7 ;-)
Hot damn ... my email address won 850 grand.
Only one in a hundred million would fall for this con and that moron demands to be hosed.
.
I won't fill out any email forms like this that don't ask for my SS number.
For tax purposes, of course.
You're smart, and I don't click on any links that don't promise at least a million bucks.
First two words: 'Fact shows' .
Fucking monkey's still can't spell or use proper english. (Whatever that was).
Atypical Nigerian scam.
Atypical? No, on the contrary, indeed very typical.
You were right, the monkeys can't use proper English.
Daddy Showkey will come and Chop your Money
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kUFtAJVU-6IOf course, the Nigerian's Obamacare websites work much better than that of the US Gov so maybe we can learn something here...
Scam Baiting...
Well you know if it's real if the World Bank sends you a notice it levied your account 850,000 because you are 'wealthy' person with savings account.
I think this went to the wrong DL. Free money offers like this were most likely meant to go to The Tribe™ DL..
If that was $850,000 Zimbabwe dollars I would be tempted to believe it...... oh wait, we are on our way there.
$850,000 USD
why?
Because $900,000 would be too difficult to believe.

FUCK YOU, JIM YONG KIM!!! Can I has some moneys preeze??? LOL
Just a tiny bit skeptical, but if they agree to pay me in 1950s-dated federal reserve bearer bonds in billion-dollar denominations, that's cool.
I WON! I WON! Now where's my money?
Response:
Signor Kim,
Please return undersigned agreement as proof of our mutually beneficial contract upon which I have specifically performed per your instructions. I have taken the liberty to file a UCC lien for the promised amount against the entity "The World Bank" in the great state of Texas and expect the funds pledged to this charity to be remitted via SWIFT within the next three business days to the correspondent account detailed hereinafter. Please understand that late penalties, fees, and interest to the greatest extent provided or allowable by law shall be rolled into the pledged unpaid balance daily after that time, and until the end of time or such time as all outstanding balances are received in full. We reserve the right to enforce this contract through any means necessary, including but not limited to: suit in law or chancery depending upon the jurisdiction of our choosing, purchase of life insurance on your behalf (and your employees and agents, and those of any of your heirs and assigns) payable to us as beneficiaries in the event of your untimely demise, hiring and aggressive employment of debt collectors, repo men, and wet teams, to whatever extent necessary to maintain the integrity of our Contract, so help you, dog.
Your humble recipient,
X
Sex: Yes Please!
There is a game. I forget the name of it. Where people pretend to be naive and make the Nigerian dude think he has a sucker.
You convince the scammer to do an unusual picture like put a fish on his head and an Apple in his mouth and send a pic to prove he is legitimate
Really good people at this game can get the scammers to do awfully funny pics, then the pics get posted on the intertubes.
in the old days it was the prisoner letters, my dad used to string them along promise to send money ask for more info, just to get the foreign stamps for his collection
Search for "Scambaiting" or "scamming the scammers".
I dont about you fellas but im filling out form and taking it as collateral to my friendly neighborhood bank
I understand they are perfectly acceptable collateral to the ECB. In fact, they have a higher rating than Spanish and Greek sovereigns.
And US
Now if this was really true, these emails would be going to banks themselves, and would read something like this:
Facts show that many in the world are still in deep poverty, but since you are a bankster, you already know this because you put them there.
We at the IMF and federal reserve want to help you continue "God's work", so we are offering you the sum of $850,000,000,000,000 interest free to use as you see fit.

Working for a World Free of Evil
I was looking for a job and then I found a job and heaven knows I'm miserable now. . .
I get letters like this in my junk mail folder all the time. Now that ZH has validated it I'm going to claim my $850k and help save the world.
re The World Bank - Working for A World Free Of Poverty
Of couse it's fake!
The actual World Bank byline is:
Working for A World Free Of Property
They always manage to make some kind of mistake in the email. Spammers need to learn to proof read better. Double space in "of One Hundred" and "mandate to help". The double period at the end isn't very professional either..
A legit email would not have those mistakes because educated people do proof reading before sending out an email to thousands of people.
Wait, 'adresses selected randomly'?? Dats raysiss !
Niger, please!
