That looks suspicious to me, Jimmy. I probably would not send her a reply but I would forward the message to Kyle.

I know this Veronica but it will help if the community is exposed to this kind for there might some who are not aware of it.

Absolutely!

I have placed a message on her profile, I think she will be gone after the 7 day trial period.
It's a pity, people are driven to this kind of actions due to the inequality in this world.

You are right. Maybe they are a victim of such but it doesn't mean that they will resort to another problem victimizing other people. A value in life is taking the best, the good action on the very challenging situations. That is where our faith comes in, we are taught not to do illegal, immoral acts wherever, whenever and whoever we deal with.

I have had PM's about this lady, she will be watched from different angles

I hope she will learn a lesson and she will not do it outside WA.

No place is safe from scammers like this, but at least here at WA once it's reported the action is swift. Thanks for alerting us all to this one.

It's our service to everyone.

You are absolutely right about that. :)

Thank you.

This is a scam!! They say they need to get their dead parents money out of a vault, but they need money to do that! They ask for a certain amount, and they will pay you double for getting it out for them because supposedly their parents have a lot of money in the vault! You send the money, then they say they just need a little extra, and they give you promise after promise that it's coming to you (The money)..some do end up sending you a check! Then that check bounces, and you end up in trouble with your bank! The reason I know this? My husband fell for this scam years ago! He lost $25,000 to supposedly get 500,000 when the money was released! He wouldn't listen to me when I told him it was a scam...I think that was our biggest fight we ever had..ohhhh..I was mad....lol

LOL, nobody is happy with a scam. This was the kind of scam second to what I encountered and now it's being repeated so I know it.

OUCH! That must have hurt!!!

Tremendously...lol...it hurt even more that my hubby didn't listen to me calling "scam"...lol..that happened 10 years ago, and it still bugs me...hahahaha

Guurl...I would be hurtin' if it was $2500!!!

It was $25,000 lol

I know!!! I'm just saying it would hurt even if it was just $2,500!!!

$47 is hurting me now because in my eight months I have already invested 20,000 in our currency.
From small to big amount they will always hurt unless we are only doing it for fun and we don't need money.

I thoroughly enjoy this community, but it's definitely NOT just for fun for me! If that was the case, I would not have bothered with the certification or starting the Bootcamp.

To earn is our foremost purpose and the longer we stay and see nothing is not for fun. But to the rich, it is not a priority for them to have an income they just enjoy the community by having this just as their pastime.
Being an Ambassador is one of a kind. You just enjoy being an Ambassador and never mind of your website.

ohhh..okay...lol...

You should always send a PM to Kyle or Carson whenever you encounter anything like this, they will immediately ban the member.

Last time I did so I will do it again later on.

I got the same message earlier today. I just reported it as spam.

a couple of months ago someone appeared also with another approach and now this time again. It's good to popularize what ever scams we find for others to know. It's good they are here at Wealthy Affiliate and they will know also that what they are doing is no longer new to us.

Oh how I hate these kind of messages!!! It's a waste of time and I just report them right away ! I did receive and report a few myself in the past Thanks for reporting it to us Jimmy! These scammers are scum and should be banned for life on this platform...

Yes, and may Google bands them.

Without question sir, it probably would have been best that you had not even opened up this email. It has the word "spam" written all over it.

I did the same thing about 12 years ago, opening up an email that I had no business doing so on a previous computer that I owned. Not only was the machine soon negatively effected with malware/spyware that was embedded in the email itself. But the person, or group of spammers who sent the phony email were able to get my personal identity and later try to bill me with airline tickets charged against a bank credit card.

It took me days to straighten out the matter as thankfully bank officials cooperated, well aware that I would not order any airline tickets to a small, almost obscure African country.

The world that we live in today, you simply can't open up emails put into your inbox that have even the slightest hint of suspicion. You could regret it.

Jeff

No, this is not my first time to receive this kind of message I just want the community to be aware of what a scam like this.

This only means everywhere anywhere is being intruded by scammers

LOL...now is that a scam, I wonder?

This is an old, old scam.

You should report this.

I'm reporting it this way.
