Lolly Stevens The Scammer!
Posted on 10. Sep, 2008 by dimaks in News
Do you know Ms. Lolly Stevens, from Wales, United Kingdom? Who sometimes asks for a beneficiary outside UK to claim a large sum of money deposited by her late father? If your answer is yes, then you just got a scam email! Well, these emails have been circulating the Internet since 1999 as far as I can remember. Funny thing is, aside from their offers being too good to be true, they also show their obvious idiocy. Take a look at the email below:

Have a nice day.

Apparently, Ms. Stevens is living in the UK, using a Netherlands email domain, with their unclaimed money deposited in a UK-based bank, and yet the currency is in dollars. And she thought she could lure people a little bit by diverting expected replies to another email of hers, that is Hong Kong yahoo.
Oh well, I bet that “Lolly Stevens” is not even the real name of this pathetic scammer.
Funny and confusing!

I honestly don’t know how people fall for this. However, I know someone who was a relative of someone who died but had no will and was contacted out of the blue with a letter saying she would receive 2 million pounds!

Yeah, I got quite a number of these emails and I never bother to read them. Surprising that the scam operators still try and mail and mail. Could it be that for every 10 thousand perhaps they send this too, one would be naive enough to take the bait? Ah ewan.
