It as been a very sad and bad moment for me because I got robbed on my way to the hotel where I lodged. My ID, Credit card, cash and other valuables I have with me got stolen, I contacted the embassy here to help me out but it will take some time to get back to me. I urgently need your financial assistance. The total sum of money that i would need would be $2,500 to sort-out my hotel bills and get myself back home. I will appreciate your help, I promise I will pay you back upon my return, Let me know if you can assist me so that i can send you the details to use when sending the money through western union. Peace & Joy.
Hope to hear from you soon.
sincerely,
Vlad"
Hi Vlad,
If you're not using your <vladdobrich@yahoo.ca> address anymore, please ask Yahoo to deactivate it - otherwise some scam artists could use it (and your name) for their purpose...
