EMAIL DATABASE FOR SALE

Hi

I have compiled an email database of 30 000 South African email addresses which have been tested and verified. I am now offering you the opportunity to invest in a mailing list so that you can market your business/service more cost effectively to a wide range of people and, small businesses in South Africa. The cost of my email database is R1000 which, if you consider for a moment the amount of time it took to compile, then it is but a small price to pay for buying information that will help you to make money.

HOW TO ORDER:

To order the email database, you need to make either a cash deposit or an Internet transfer to my bank. You will need to either fax or email me proof of payment. Once I have received your funds I shall send you a CSV file containing the email list.


My banking details are: M Tribelhorn

Standard Bank (Lyttelton)
Branch code (010945)
Cheque account (018971830)

Fax no: 0866837355
Email: [email protected]


May I wish you lots of success in whatever business venture you are involved in.


Mark

As he gives his bank account and contact details why not send them to one of those poor 419 scammers desperate for such

is that a fax only number he gave or does someone answer it when called ? Lets call him at all hours of the day and night......

time passes.....


a quick google search on the fax number yielded this mobile number 083-2981825.

He has obviously learnt fro his past mistakes..... Anyone wanna check if it exists.. ?

.... more time passes........

seaching on that mobile number confirms his identity.

Still active

The man is still active...
Googled him, found his Facebook account and was not surprised to see he has only 13 friends

With a database of 30 thousand e-mail addresses, you'd expect him to have a few more...
