- Go to Ok, Here is How the Scam works according to the FBI Agent I spoke with
This sounds similar to the email scam
That claims someone wants to give you money, etc... they ask for things like a copy of your passport, etc...

Yeah, there are a lot of scams similar to this.
I have never heard of anyone doing what you have though
Mostly we just toss the emails or letters out... (Ignore ANYTHING from Nigeria. It's a scam)

your bank was cautious. Eventually they'll round up all the bad guys and you could have been one of them.

What, no reward?
Surely there should be a reward of something for your assistance in possibly aiding in the uncovering of a money laundry syndicate?
