스패머와 펜팔을...

스팸중에 기억에 남는게, 영어로 자기가 전두환 전대통령의 동생이라면서 자기한테 전두환 비자금이 있으니 이거 세탁해주면 얼마 주겠다 전형적인 사기메일이 있었는데요.. 그런데 자기 이름이 이두환이라고 하더군요.. :D

전두환 비자금을 알 정도의 스패머라면 한국사람 성이 앞에 붙는다는 정도는 알만한데..

Greetings from me and my family,

Getting your contact was not an easy task because since I am not computer literate, I ordered my son to seek a partner very far away and he went to the institute of International Business to apply and he paid them the charges. After two days we were given three names and I did not write the three but merely close my eyes in prayers and your address became my selection. I intended to write one of the others if you had not responded on time or if you eventually change your mind. You see my friend, if you rely solely on God, you will never go wrong.

My name is JANG DOO-HWAN, The brother of Mr. CHUN DOO-HWAN, the former President of South Korea who seized power in a military coup in 1979 and who ruled from 1979 to 1987. My brother was pushed out of office and charged with treason ,corruption and embezzlement of over 21billion won. He was wrongly sentenced to death but fortunately AMNESTY INTERNATIONAL stepped in and commuted the sentence to life. We thank God that he has finally being released though still under house arrest in the sense of conditions of the freedom.
During my brother's regime as president of South Korea, we realized some reasonable amount of money from various deals that we successfully executed.
I have plans to invest this money for my children?s future on real estate and industrial production.

Before my brother's was overthrown, I secretly siphoned the sum of $30,000,000 million USD (Thirty million United states dollars) out of Seoul and deposited the money with a security firm that transports valuab le goods and consignments through diplomatic means. I am contacting you because I want you to deal with the security company and claim the money on my behalf since I have declared that the consignment belong to my foreign business partner. You shall also be required to assist me in investment in your country.
I hope to trust you as a God fearing person who will not sit on this money when you claim it, rather assist me properly, I expect you to declare what percentage of the total money you will take for your assistance. When I receive your positive response I will let you know where the security company is and the payment pin code to claim the money which is very important.
What we need is to indicate your interest that you will assist us by receiving the money on our behalf in Europe or with special arrangement, you can get it transfered to you by bank transfer . For this, you shall be considered to be the beneficiary of the money. The project in brief, is that the funds wit h which we intend to carry out our proposed investments in your country, is presently in the custody of a Diplomatic Courier Services Company in Europe. We cannot do this ourselves because we do not have any relatives living outside South Korea and moreover we do not want the government of my Country to know about the money because they will believe I got the money from my brother while he was still in office as president .Once you confirm the receipt of the money ,I will come over with my Children to your Country or any Country in Europe to start a new life with my Family. As soon as payment is effected, and the amount mentioned above is successfully transferred into your account,
For now, let all our communication be by e-mail because my line is right now connected to the South Korean Telecommunication Network services therefore we can not take the chances of being heard.

Please also send me your telephone and fax number. I will ask my son to contact you to give you more details on after I have received a response from you. I am going to introduce you to him as an age long friend so as to prevent him from using any of his own friends who I regard as sycophants who are around him for financial gains and treacherous if he gives them this opportunity. This I got from the xperience I had when the people turned against Chun, my brother that became the prelude of our sorrow. The reason why it took this long was that the security company?s agreement with me was that my brother must personally sign the Power of Attorney that will transfer title to the prospective beneficiary. It was a long wait but it paid off. His excellency, Chun Doo-Hwan does not want to be personally involved for security reason. Your quick response will be highly appreciated. Thank you in anticipation of your cooperation.

Yours faithfully,
Jang Doo-hwan,
