Internet users in Wyre Forest have been warned not to reply to a fraudulent e-mail offering them more than $2 million.

West Mercia Neighbourhood Watch vice-chairman Sue Savidge has issued the warning about an e-mail circulating from a George Wyre Forest Sankoh in Sierra Leone, requesting a bank account to deposit $22 million belonging to his father.

Mrs Savidge said:

"Don't reply to it - not even to say no. That's what they want you to do."
