What follows is an email I received on the 4th of June 2008, I posted this email on my Blog so as to make the readers aware that if you receive a similar email DO NOT reply, as if you do so (providing the sender the information he is asking for) , the person sending the email can contact you, trick you and loot you and you would not even come to know where your money has gone.
Stay Safe,

Hello,

I am contacting you to partner with me in respect of transfer of certain funds, which is being held in a floating account in my bank here in the United Kingdom. I am privileged to have full knowledge of the availability of this fund due to my function and position in my office at present. I have to contact you because it is imperative for me to have the cooperation of a foreigner to be able to transfer the fund out of my country.My investigation proved the original depositor of the fund had died some years back and all attempts to reach the supposed beneficiary of the deposit were fruitless and before it is forfeited to the state, I decided to transfer it for the benefit of both of us.
The total amount involved is Eight Million Three Hundred Thousand pounds sterling. My name is Andy Gozny.I would give the details of the transfer process if I receive your response and am convinced that you are willing and dependable to carry out the transaction with me in absolute confidentiality. We have to establish mutual trust such that it will be glaring to both parties that we could work with open mind. When the fund is transferred to your account, you and will share it 50% each and I hope to invest my share in your country.

I look forward to our working together in seeing this transaction come to a perfect and successful conclusion. For effective communication, please kindly include in your reply, your complete full Names, Address, Occupation, Age and most especially your contact telephone number and I will contact you as soon as I receive your reply.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Sincerely.
Andy Gozny

So, I wonder if I give my data, like my bank account, but one that never has any money, what could happen? I live in Brazil> Would he ask to leave some money on the account?
