Due to anonymous nature of the Internet, it is difficult to confirm the true identity of a person. Thus, this opens up the possibility of becoming victim to various online moneymaking scams, that are difficult to track and even more difficult to find the person responsible.

An example of one of the better known schemes, a letter from Nigeria, follows:

"dear chosen partner,

This is actual letter that someone has attempted to send over 500 times to our members. However, thanks to our advanced spam-filtering system, the person was unsuccessful in his/her attempts to send the message through. Basically what the message entails is: "Send me 100 or 200 dollars to help with my dilemma and I will give you 10% of my 15 million USD." The unbelievable part is there are some people who actually fell for this! But you aren't one of them, are you :) Good!

There is also the following well-known dating scam:

Someone creates a fake personal profile of a woman who lives in a poor area of Asia, Russia or Africa and includes a pretty picture. Then hundreds of messages are sent to male members inviting them for conversation. After emailing back and forth numerous times and gaining the man's trust, the woman mentions how nice it would be to visit him, however she has no money for the visa, ticket, etc. If the man does decide to help her, the best way is to offer reimbursement on arrival or something similar. We are not saying all of such cases are scams, but 95% are in fact. So we advise you to use your common sense and do not send the cash directly.
