Hi,

Just hoping this email reaches you well, I'm sorry for this emergency
but I just have to let you know my present predicament. I made an
urgent trip to Madrid, Spain. Everything was fine until I was attacked
on my way back to the hotel, I wasn't hurt but I lost my money, bank
cards, mobile phone and my bag in the course of this attack. I
immediately contacted my bank in order to block my cards and also made
a report at the nearest police station. I've been to the embassy and
they are helping me with my documentation so i can fly out but I'm
urgently in need of some money to pay for my hotel bills and my flight
ticket home, will PAY BACK as soon as i get back home.

Kindly let me know if you would be able to help me out so I can
forward you the details required for a wire transfer. I will expect
your response soon.


Thanks,

KenP

I assume everyone knows this is a scam, and that Ken's email has been
hacked, but thought I'd post just in case anyone was taken in.

Ken, you either have a virus on your PC or your gmail account has been
compromised.

Thanks Ben. Am dredging my memory and can't recall you but it is comforting to know people are concerned enough to alert others who may not realise the messages are spam.

Am still trying to get things sorted out and another friend has told me the perpetrators are still trying to use my account so may need to reset passwords again.

Don't worry, you don't know me, I joined the list years ago but never actually made it to a ride :-)
