I did receive an email the other day from a "Mr Ali Temel, ... the Executive Human Resources of Garanti Bank of Turkey" who wanted me to assist him in stealing [1] funds from an unclaimed account at his bank.

I just spent the last three days dealing with a scammer who was impersonating my lawyer by e-mail.  Tried to get me to buy $500 worth of iTunes cards so he/she/it could pay for a "legal" document that, let's just abbreviate this, that "hshit" needed to download and was out of town on and didn't have access to "hshits" regular funding.

I played along for a bit, not being entirely sure it was a scam until the $500 amount was mentioned, what is it with these a**h***s and $500 anyway, after which the smell of rat was unmistakable.

Nothing remarkable about this except the manner in which I was approached 
directly.

It's a dangerous internet out there, be careful people.

I used asterisks not because I had to, this is a private mailing list after all, but because I wanted to.


[1] He didn't call it "stealing", but that's what it amounts to, an invitation to participate in theft by defrauding his "employer".
