email scammers taking a step up with alfa romeo

haha i just got the newest western union money transfer email scam... this one is fronting as alfa romeo and actually came up with a decent story line
even had a picture of the alfa romeo emblem...

...



Alfa Romeo Motors,
Head Quarters,
Turin Area, Italy.
Website: http://www.alfaromeo.com

My name is George Huffman and I am in-charge of the Alfa Romeo Motor's Human Resource department. Alfa Romeo is an Italian Motor Manufacturer and we have several customers in United States of America whom use our cars and presently, most of them require parts that can only be imported directly from Italy and we are unable to receive payments directly from USA due to our Italian Policies.

We receive series of e-mails requesting for parts from our car users, however we are unable to process their request because we are not able to receive US Checks / Money Orders. If we request them to send a Western Union Money Transfer, they will be going against the better business bureau rules because Western Union Money Transfer is based on Cash transactions and costs almost 8% of the amount sent for their sending fee's.

We require you to become our Accounts Receivable agent whom shall assist us towards receiving payments from our customers for required parts, once you receive their check payment, you shall be required to deposit the check and then deduct 10% of each payment received by you as your earning. You will be required to forward the remaining 90% to our Regional Manufacturing Processor via Western Union Money Transfer, if you are interested in this offer, kindly fill the form below:

FULL NAME:
ADDRESS LINE 1:
ADDRESS LINE 2:
CITY:
STATE:
COUNTRY:
ZIP CODE:
HOME PHONE NUMBER:
CELL / MOBILE PHONE NUMBER:
BANK NAME:
HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE YOUR BANK TO CLEAR A CHECK FOR $8,000? (PLEASE CONFIRM FIRST):

Once your application has been received, we shall get back to you with more details and instructions on when your first payment shall be delivered to you. Please fill the form above and send to: g.huffman@gala.net .

Regards,

George Huffman.

haha.

of course Alfa Romeo wouldn't have their own email server right? And they'd definitely use gala.net which is a russian website.

At least their story lines are getting somewhat better.
