In our postings of the email scams we try to preserve the emails in their entirety to show our readers a true example of the email. Typically, the same email circulates the Internet. It was brought to our attention the name used in this email was also the name of an United States Chief Executive Officer (CEO). We were given very little information other then "he is our CEO" and the name of the company. Our original stand was there are a lot of people with the same name in this world and the email does not identify their CEO or their company. However, upon OUR RESEARCH and without the sender's assistance, we discovered this USA CEO is also a prominent figure in Africa (doing a lot of great and needed work for the citizens of Africa). Given this CEO's ties to Africa and this emails ties to Africa we removed his name from this email. Giving up our Freedom of Speech - not really. As stated below, our intent is not to point the finger at "real" people but to point out how scam artists are working and to warn or visitors.

Please note:
Our intention with publishing these scam emails on our website is not to "incriminate" an individual or company mentioned in the emails. Our intent is to make our visitors aware of the techniques scam artists use to achieve their cons.
