Greetings,

Please I need your urgent help, am currently in Manila,Philippines for a short vacation and my bank is having some network problem, can't transfer out here, have been so stranded and confused. Please can I get $1,950 or whatever amount if not all? I will refund your money in few days as soon as I return, I promise. Please let me know immediately. I will be waiting to read back from you.

Best regards.

This person is(was) a friend of Pablo when he lived in Venezuela and Pablo now has been resident in Spain for 15 months. Pablo recieved this email this morning when he came to my house from the village to use my computer. As Pablo and I via delphi exposed scams previously he asked me to publish this email to warn others. 

I have done a check and Google produces this. Pablo forwarded this to me so I cannot investigate where the original email came from. It would appear that both the sender and the recipient are interested in orchids and the website below does give all the details of the Mexican (sender)

Yes, I know the guy quite well. He's a Medical doctor and a Botanist in Venezuela. He has discovered a few orchid species and it is almost a celebrity in the natural science society of Venezuela.
