Money Transfer Scam | Industrial & Commercial Bank of China (Asia) Limited | Kim Woo Choong

Do you know who Kim Woo Choong is?

I didn't until I got this e-mail.

He is the founder of the Daewoo Group from Korea.

Now Mr. Kim got himself imprisoned for fraud in 2006.

Doesn't that sound like a good background for a first class scam e-mail?

And here it is, offering you a miserly 15% for your services.
