Re: Been asked to open account for large transfer from abroad
This is a huge scam which has been wandering the net for a couple of years. Thousands of such emails are sent daily from Africa to the US. It is not legal here, but what would one do? Go to South Africa if you lose? Do not be trapped by this scam. Do not provide them with any information. Protect yourself.
