All that glitters is not Gold ...
This type fo scam e-mail crops up now and then. I'm not sure who would actually reply to such a message. After all 245 kg of gold at 10,500 USD per Kilo makes a total sum of 2,572,500 US Dollars. Of that, 50% is requested up front.
Needless to say only someone with access to this sort of money can think of doing a deal like this. I'm not sure if a business man would actually do this, without taking precautions up front.
That doesn't seem to bother these guys. But I can't believe that this is as successful as the lottery scam e-mails.
