Does this fraud letter circulating abroad originate from the Cayman Islands?
We publish the following email that is circulating all over the globe – this was passed to us from a news media house in Nigeria. The reason we ask whether it originated in Cayman is because it mentions CIBC First Caribbean Bank where the sender, Susan Moorehead, will help you move to an escrow account she holds there.
Obviously do NOT reply to the email. If you do you will be asked to pay a fee to obtain the funds and so it will go on and on.
