the "United Nations Compensation Commission Overdue Fund" Scams
Recipients of email messages like the one below regarding a long-overdue compensation fund from the United Nations Compensation Commission are scams or fake emails being sent by online scammers to their potential victims. The scammers send fake and fraudulent email messages to their potential victims to trick them into sending their personal information. The potential victims' information will then be used to contact them in an attempt to trick them into sending money, which the scammers will claim it is for processing fee, taxes, delivery fee, transfer fee or some other fee. But, if the potential victims send their money, the scammers will take it and disappear, and not send the money that was promised.
Online users, remember, never send your personal information to anyone who requests it via unsolicited emails. And, never send money via Western Union, Moneygram or other money transfer services to anyone who asks you to do so in order to receive a lottery prize or money. This is how scammers trick their victims into sending them money.

Attention Beneficiary,
We received a report from the International Monetary Fund (IMF) in conjunction with the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) demanding explanations for the delay of your overdue compensation fund payment approved by the United Nations Compensation Commission (UNCC) and we have investigated this case only to find out that you've been ignorantly having illegal financial dealings with some online perpetrators who have taken advantage of your legitimate transaction in our custody in order to siphon your hard earned money.
