jim ovia and the united nations are scamers!



i received and not even an hour ago about this scam. i first heard about this scam a few weeks  ago letting me that that there was a meeting at the united nations for over 7 months and 2 days ago they had agreed upon all the beneficaries would recieve the amount of $500,000 u.s. dollars. and they ask me to send them the information required.and that i wouldnt have to send no money that they would take care of everything all i have to is to send them my name,address,and phone number, if i am male or female and if i work and what country i am from.



so being courious i send them back a reply and said that i hope that was not a scam.and i also wrote him and said that i could not afford another scam being played on me and my family.and then i sent it to him.then i havent heard anything for a few weeks so i was thinking that it was a scam. then tonight to my surprise i recieved mail from him and he was talking about the same thing.



so to make a long story short i was beginning to fall for it and something told me to look up the bank that they had my money was at and i did.and boy i got mad!
