# 1
“OH! I forgot!
“My Dear First_Name,
# 2 “When you wake up on February
14, 2010, you will have waiting for you, at your breakfast table, your very own
“Powerful Cash Package” which may produce a
Free Check Every Month for the rest of your life. With your “Powerful Cash
Package” you may receive $15,000 a month for 20
years.
“Good Luck, new income and endless blessings come to those who believe. It can be yours, by simply following their Magical Words. Have you ever watched the news where someone had just uncovered a rare piece of art in the attic of an old house worth millions? Or have you opened the newspaper and read that someone had found precious jewelry in the basement of an old house they recently purchased? (Now it’s your turn. You too can perhaps start cashing the checks, in seven days.) $9,000, $10,000, $15,000, $24,000, $29,000, $54,000.
“With your New “Powerful Cash Package” you may be able to go on a journey that will lead you to a new life of lasting joy, great riches and perhaps freedom from ALL your debts. From the moment you sit down at your breakfast table on February 14, 2010 you will start to experience one of the most enjoyable times of your life. In the next month, you may start to receive new monthly checks that have been waiting just for you. (But, more about your exciting 20 year time period later. Let’s talk about twelve days from now.)
# 3 “Please understand
First_Name Last_Name, you are very special. To be given the opportunity to activate your
“Powerful Cash Package”, is a very special gift. You have received this gift
because I have discovered the misery and pain you have suffered all these years, and
that’s why you have been hand-picked First, out of all the people
in your state. I sense there may be money, a lot of money coming
to you and I am deeply concerned. If you delay you may miss out on
a Monthly Annuity that may be sitting in a BANK, waiting to
be mailed to you. (One man, perhaps last week, started
receiving monthly checks of $15,000). That could have been you. That’s why I would
like to send you the “Powerful Cash Package” and finish preparing your
instructions for perhaps receiving extra checks every
month.
“In addition, You may hit The Lottery for $75 Million. Using one of the Free Gifts inside your “Powerful Cash Package”, you may have amazing things happen to you, that you never thought possible. For example, next Friday you may have whispered in your ear the winning numbers for your state lottery. Or you may be given the secret the very privileged use to accumulate great wealth and riches from the stock market. Some people say, using this “Powerful Cash package” is like having the power for unlimited wealth. (Give it a try in twelve days and see how your life changes!)

Please remember, these are quotations from the SCAM letter from “Barbara D. Stevens” _not_ by mailscamalert.com.
# 1 Does this sound familiar? Perhaps it is
because this is the third SCAMmer to ask the same, basic question while admitting to making an
error. If you have viewed theKaren M. Conners,theLaura Summers,or theLaura Summerspages on this site, you will
immediately recognize the similarities. Each has a ‘check a month plan’ for 20
years, a ‘paid vacation’, a large sum of money to pay off bills or a house, and a
similarly large sum for a new car. “Ms. Stevens” leaves out those last two items
and doesn’t get too specific about how much those ‘monthly checks’ will be,
but she still uses the 20 year schedule.
# 2 More of that bold red with a dotted
underline text. “Ms. Stevens” uses those two words 28 times in her letter.
All four of these ‘ladies’ may have perhaps had the same idea?
They may think that adding these specific words will avoid the possibility of having
to return anything because of their ‘100% guarantee’. Perhaps the wisest
plan would be to never send them any money, in the first place! Whatever the reason, it simply
makes the letters a bit funny to read... if it weren’t for the thousands of dollars they
are stealing from those who send them their money.
(return to # 2 Red Flag above)
# 3 A standard pattern in most SCAMs is to
make the recipient feel they are special or deserving of financial help. The SCAMmer will even
claim that the recipient is struggling financially since many people will always feel they can
use more money. The recipient is usually told they have been ‘hand-picked’. The
problem with all these claims and promises is that the SCAMmer has absolutely no knowledge of
the financial state of any of their recipients. If they were truly ‘psychic’ or
‘clairvoyant’, of course, we would know it when they made correct statements about
us. What the SCAMmers are doing, however, is playing into many people’s desire to have
more money which helps to convince themselves that they are going to get
‘something for nothing’.
(return to # 3 Red Flag above)
# 4 At least that’s the name being
used in the letter. The point is, we really don’t know what the name of the person might
be. Even if we knew, they would still be a complete stranger. It is dangerous and often harmful
to give cash or checks to complete strangers.
(return to # 4 Red Flag above)
# 5 You were no more ‘picked’
than any of the thousands of others who got this SCAM letter. You are simply on the purchased
mailing list that is used to insert names and addresses into the word processing template that
is used to create these letters. If you have ever filled out a form for a contest or subscribed
to a magazine or joined a Nation-wide club or organization, your information could easily have
been collected and compiled into one of thousands of commercially available mailing lists. That
is probably the biggest expense for any SCAMmer.
# 6 Here is another standard trait in these
SCAM letters; it’s the “Act-immediately-before-you-think” scheme. This letter
uses the same, contradictory time limit seen in many others. You are told you must reply
“in the next 72 hours”, followed by “no later than 5 days”. It does not
say ‘three and five days’, which would still be strangely worded; and what would happen
if your reply arrived in just two days?! Would you still get all the “free gifts”? Just
remember, even if your reply falls into the correct time limits, “Ms. Stevens” only
promises that you “may” get your “Powerful Cash
Package”. Avoid the worries about the time limits; just don’t reply at all!
(return to # 6 Red Flag above)
# 7 We already have a “Direct Line To
God”! It’s called prayer! However, I completely disagree with the
‘author’ of this letter that this ‘direct line’ is for our use to
request to be rich! This ‘direct line’ is to be used to help change our attitude
and direction in life to what God wants us to do and be. He does answer our prayers, but we
must accept that “No” is an answer. Don’t be fooled by the current crop of
people claiming that God wants everyone to be financially rich. You may notice that all those
‘preachers’ are driving expensive cars and living in expensive, even lavish,
houses. That is hardly the way Jesus lived. God says He will supply all our needs. Our problem
is confusing ‘needs’ and ‘wants’. All these SCAMmers want is for us to
supply their needs for more money. They couldn’t care less about any of our wants, much
less our needs.
(return to # 7 Red Flag above)
# 8 The one thing every single SCAM letter
does; The infamous, ‘send me some money’ action. This letter pre-dates the others I
mentioned earlier. This later letters show the increasing costs of doing business; they all
raised the fee by two dollars from “Ms. Stevens’” $22.95! I can tell you how
to save even more; Don’t send even the lower fee to “Ms. Stevens”! Save your
money or donate it to a trustworthy cause in your area.
(return to # 8 Red Flag above)
# 9 Once again, I repeat what I’ve
said in so many of the pages on my site. I have never, ever seen or heard of anyone getting a
refund from any of these SCAMs, no matter how many times they claim their
‘guarantee’ is ‘100% money-back’, ‘no-questions-asked’,
‘heartfelt’ or ‘genuine’! It just never happens, no ifs, ands or
perhaps about it!
