I just wanted to get this out there, as it seems to be circulating in Texas right now. SO BEWARE!!! I did a little research after a friend of mine got the email...She played along with it to see how far they would go...This is some information I found....The big red flag is: YOU have to pay to get the money out of the country.

WARNING: Anti-Terrorist Certificate Scam
The European Commission has learned of several attempts to defraud individuals and companies via e-mails from persons promising to invest large sums of money. We understand that intended victims of the fraud are asked to provide an "Anti-Terrorist Certificate" in order to allow international money transfers to be made. The certificate is said to be a legal requirement established by the European Commission. Victims are told that they must pay up to EUR 50,000 in order to receive this certificate, and failure to pay the fee will result in the funds being blocked.

Please be advised that any such demands should be treated as a hoax. The European Commission does not require such an Anti-Terrorist Certificate nor does it request fees in association with the international transfer of funds. There is no "Commission Patriot Act of London, July 2005 (Public Law 313)" nor any similar Act, Law, Regulation or Directive.

Persons who receive a request to pay for a certificate of this nature are strongly advised against making any payment. For issues relating to international money transfers, the first point of contact should be your bank. If you suspect fraud, you should contact the anti-fraud authorities in your country.

Thanks for bringing that to our attention Pamela.
There is just one thing after another.
I think I would have lost it already, if I didn't have Jesus.

I feel like hiding right off from the world.
Well Jesus said we are in it, but not of it.
Thank God.

So much evil everywhere. ACK!
I want to hide here on this forum with all of you.
Is that okay.
