I received an e-mail from some unknown person from the uk how do I know this person is real and not a scam?

Their screen name has the word "funds" in it. That should tell you something right there. They probably want money. Be careful.

If you don't know who they are, or how they got your e-mail address, just don't talk to them. Most e-mails that just seem really random are trying to get money and scam you. Just ignore it, and if it is a real person, they will try to get ahold of you later, if they want to. In the mean time, just delete it and don't worry.

scam, scam, scam. block it and ignore.

Let me guess...This person that sent you an e-mail has some way out story and wants you to handle his or her financial affairs...RIGHT? ....Yep. Guess what? It's a scam. I have received two different styles of these letters and they both are Bull sh-t. Delete them and carry on. If it sounds too good to be true...It is.

It's a scam. Send it to your spam filter. Do not open or reply to or you will be open to identity theft, phishing, etc. If you don't know the sender, it's probably spam.

You dont....there is spyware that tracks what ppl do on their keyboards....ignore them if you dont know them...they can be blocked
