Law Offices of Thomas Gross - Nigerian 419 Scam E-Mails/Letters (4)

If you receive an unsolicited e-mail seeking you to receive a large sum of money or be presented as the next of kin of a large fortune from someone you never heard of (especially if that person resides overseas), don't believe it. This is almost certainly a scam where you will be asked to pay some type of fee before you can claim the money or you will be presented with a phony check and asked to return a share. Don't be fooled by official looking documents as scammers make a living forging these things. Also many scammers work in rings and have partners who may pose as lawyers, government officials, bank officials etc.

If you get such an e-mail or you get one that is similar to one in our database, you should delete the letter. Do not contact the person and especially do not give out personal information such as bank account information. NEVER pay any fees of any kind. Also, do not accept a check from this stranger and especially do not return a portion of the check . If you are victimized by the fraud, there is not much that you can do. You may want to file a police report so that you can have a record of the loss (for tax reasons). You can also notify the Secret Service about your loss.

Dear One,

We MR.Alain Berry.the Manager in charge of First Atlantic Bank Plc London and my partner Mr. Charles Egwim the Chief accounting Officer .With due respect and regard. I have decided to contact you on a business transaction that will be very beneficial to all of us at the end. During our investigation and auditing in this bank, my department came across a very huge sum of money belonging to a deceased person who died on October 31st 1999 in a plane crash and the fund has been lying dormant in his account in theBank without any claim of the fund in our custody either from his family or relation before our discovery to this development.The said amount was 11.5M Pounds Sterling (Twenty million Five Hundred Thousand Pounds Sterling) As it may interest you to know, I got your impressive information through the British chamber of commerce on foreign business relations here in London.

DEVELOPMENT
Meanwhile all the whole arrangement to put claim over this fund as the bonafide next of kin to the deceased, get the required approval and transfer this money to a foreign account has been put in place and directives and needed information will be relayed to you as soon as you indicate your interest and willingness to assist us and also benefit your self to this great business opportunity. In fact we could have done this deal alone but because of our position in this country as a civil servant(A Banker),we are not allowed to operate a foreign account and would eventually raise an eye brow on our side during the time of transfer.

SECURITY

This is the actual reason why it will require a second party or fellow who will forward claims as the next of kin with affidavit of trust of oath to the Bank and also present a foreign account where he will need the money to be re-transferred into his own designation bank account.We will not fail to inform you that this transaction is 100% risk free. On smooth conclusion of this transaction, you will be entitled to 30% of the total sum as gratification, while 5% will be set aside to take care of expenses that may arise during the time of transfer and also telephone bills, while 65% will be for my partners and i .

NOTICE

Please, you have are adviced to keep "top secret" as I am still in service and intend to retire from service after we conclude this deal with you. I will be monitoring the whole situation here in this bank until you confirm the money in your account and ask me to come down to your country for subsequent sharing of the fund according to percentages previously indicated and further investment, either in your country or any country you advice us to invest in. All other necessary vital information will be sent to you when I hear from you. I look forward to receive your immediate response through the above e-mail addresses and also the tel/fax number for caution sake.

Thanks

Yours faithfully,

Mr. Alain Berry and Mr. Charles Johnson,

May the peace of gracious God be with you,please I have a problem and needs your help,I have decided that it is good to write you for help.I have a proposal for you,This however is not mandatory nor will I in any manner compel you to honour against your will.I am in a state of delinma and your profile pushed me to send you this mail,I am Miss Monica Kone, 22 years old and the only daughter of my late parents Mr.and Mrs.Kone. My father was a highly reputable business magnet( a cocoa merchant )who operated in the capital of Ivory coast during his days.

It is sad to say that he passed away mysteriously in France during one of his business trips abroad on 26th.Febuary 2003.Though his sudden death was linked or rather suspected to have been master minded by an uncle of his who travelled with him at that time. But God knows the truth,My mother died when I was just 8 years old, and since then my father took me so special.

Before his death on February 26 2003, He called the secretary who accompanied him to the hospital and told him that he has the sum of twelve million,seven hundred thousand United State Dollars.(USD$12.700,000) left in one of the leading security company.He further told him that he deposited the money in my name, and finally issued a written instruction to his lawyer whom he said is in possession of all the necessary legal documents to this fund and the security company.I am just 22 years old and a university undergraduate and really don't know what to do.This is because I have suffered a lot of set backs as a result of incessant political crisis here in Ivory coast.

The death of my father actually brought sorrow to my life.I am in a sincere desire of your humble assistance in this regards.Your suggestions and ideas will be highly regarded. Now permit me to ask these few questions:-

1. Can you honestly help me as your daughter ? 2. Can I completely trust you ? 3. What percentage of the total amount in question will be good for you after the money is in your account ? Please, Consider this and get back to me as soon as possible.

Thank you so much.My greetings to your family. My sincere regards, Miss Monica Kone, Email:mkone08@yahoo.com

Good day, I know this will come to you out of the blue as a surprise. I write this crucial mail to solicit your assistance in a transaction that will be very beneficial to you, with hope that you will never let me down either now or in future. Please study the following account carefully and respond urgently.

I am Mr Albert Nzuma a Zimbabwean citizen, the eldest son of late Honourable Adam Nzuma. My father served the President Mugabe's government faithfully in various capacities as a minister and chairman of agriculture trust fund. He was however arrested on 4th April 2002 because he was against Mugabe's government concerning the ongoing land dispute that erupted in Zimbabwe some years back.

My father while in detention was humiliated and tortured by Mugabe's security operatives, in spite of his falling health and as a result he died in detention on the 28th day of April 2002. Before his death, he confided to me and my brother the existence of Eighteen million five hundred thousand United State dollar (18.5M US dollar) he secretly lodged in a vault. My brother and I are the only people in my family who are privy to this information, the money is now in our custody (cash).

Since his arrest, my family has been subjected to untold hardship and harassment. All my father's assets has been confiscated. His accounts frozen and we were been attacked and driven out of our family house in Harare. Narrowly I escaped to South Africa with my family and the boxes containing the money. On getting to South Africa, we applied for political asylum. I could not take such a huge foreign currency to a bank regular without raising an eyebrow. So I quickly deposited the boxes with a reputable security company as artifacts. I have the depository agreement and the certificate of the deposit issued to me by the security company.

I was waiting to have a legal status in South Africa before I could invest the money here. But last week I received a mail from South African government informing me that my family and I are not eligible to obtain political asylum, that my father was the one who had problem and not members of his family and to that effect we should be ready to go back to Zimbabwe soon.

At this point, I am frustrated and simply tired. My family lawyer advised me to leave Africa. For this reason, I want you to assist me to shift and invest this funds outside Africa. I will compensate you generously to as much as 20% of the said amount at stake if only you can help me I and my family will use the remaining 80% to start new life and seek a new happiness in overseas.

Please go to the following website to read about my side of the world. That will help you to understand what am talking about: http://www.guardian.co.uk/zimbabwe/article/0,2763,1392593,00.html Note that this transaction demands expediency, secrecy and absolute trust. Our destiny is in your hands, do not abandon us. Please assist us to escape this spectres of political persecution going on in Africa. More also treat this mail with utmost confidentiality because of my safety and the money.

I eagerly await your reply. Please include fax and phone number for easy communication .

In Oder to transfer to overseas $28.5 million(USD) from GRAND FINANCE AND TRUST BANK,Bénin Republique. I want to ask you to quietly look for a reliable and honest person who will be capable and fit to provide either an existing bank account or to set up a new Bank a/c immediately to receive this money, even an empty a/c can serve to receive this funds quitely.

I am Dr.Joel Williams(PHD), the accountant/auditor of the above Finance Corporation in Cotonou,Bénin Republique and personal confidant to Mr.Juan A.Duarte of Dominican Republic in Caribbean Island who died in a Plane Crash accident(2002-04-19) on his way to attend a weddind ceremony together with his wife and only Child (Juan Jr).

Mr.Juan A.Duarte, is From Dominican Republic in Caribbean Island, and a prosperous Tobacco merchant, he died in the year 2002 without having any beneficiary to his assets including his account here in Bénin which he opened in the above stated bank in the year 2001 as his personal savings for the purpose of expansion and developement of his company in Africa before his untimely death in 2002.Until his death,he was the president of the Dominican Tobacco Exporters Association.

And from my Investigation,I found out that No other person knows about this account because he( Mr.Juan A.Duarte ) never knew that he is going to die so soon, and so his purpose was not achieved. If I don't remit this money immediately, it will get lost(may be it will go into the pockets of the corrupt government officials who will never use it for any reasonable thing at all). I dont want to miss this opportunity because it comes ones in a life time.

The amount involved is $28.5 million(USD)Twenty eight million,five hundred United States Dollars and no other person knows about this account. I am contacting you for us to transfer this funds to your account as the beneficiary, I want to first transfer $16,000.000.00(Sixteen million USD) from this money into a safe account abroad, after which we will transfer the remaining (12.5M). I am only contacting you as a foreigner because this money cannot be approved to a local person here, without a valid foreign international passport, but can only be approved to any foreigner with valid international passport or drivers license and foreign a/c, this is because the money is in US Dollars and the former owner of the a/c,Mr.Juan A.Duarte is a foreigner too, and as such the money can only be approved into a foreign a/c.

However, I am revealing this to you with belief in God that you will never let me down in this business.I don't know you and have never seen you before,I only got your contacts from an international directory which my secretary provided for me. You are the first and the only person that I am contacting for this business, so please reply urgently so that I will inform you the next step to take. Send also your private telephone and fax number.

I need your full co-operation to make this work because the management is ready to approve this payment to any foreigner who has correct information of this account, which I will give to you, upon your positive response and once I am convinced that you are capable and will meet up with instruction of a keybank official who is deeply involved with me in this business. I want to tell you that this transaction is 100% risk free and legal because all the documents that will back up this transaction will be available, so that no body will question the fund when it is finaly tranfered to your account.

At the conclusion of this business, you will be given 40% of the total amount and 60% will be for me. I look forward to your earliest reply through this email.

This business proposal to you is strictly confidential, with due respect. Sorry at this perceived confusion or stress may have receiving this letter from me, Since we have not known ourselves or met previously. Despite that, I am constrained to write you this letter because of the urgency of it.

By way of self introduction. I am Mrs. Mariam Abacha, the widow of the late Gen. Sanni Abacha former Nigerian Military Head of State who died mysteriously as a result of Cardiac Arrest. Since after my husband’s death my family is under restriction of movement and that not with standing, we are being molested, policed and our Bank Account both here and abroad are being frozen by the Nigerian Civilian Government.

Following the sudden death of my husband General Sani Abacha the late former head of state of Nigeria in june 1998, I have been thrown into a state of utter confusion, frustration and hopelessness by the present civilian administration, I have been subjected to physical and psychological torture by the security agents in the country. My frist son was just released from detention some months ago by the Nigerian Government for an offence he did not commit. As a widow that is so traumatized, I have lost confidence with anybody within the country. Furthermore, for more interrogation about my husband’s assists and some vital documents he's movement is also been monitored.

Following the recent discovery of my husband’s Bank Account by the Nigerian Government with Swiss Bank in which the huge sum of US$700Million and DM450Milllion was logged. I therefore decided to contact you in confidence that I was able to move out the sum of US$30Million Dollars, which was secretly lodged in a trunk box (CONSIGNMENTS)and deposited with a Security Company in europe as materials of Inheritance.

I therefore personally, appeal to you seriously and religiously for your urgent assistance to move this money into your country where I believe it will be safe since I cannot leave the country due to the restriction of movement imposed on the members of my family by the Nigerian Government.

You will be contacted by my second son mustapha, seeking asylum in United Kingdom shall arrange with you for a face to face meeting , in order to liaise with you toward effective completion of this transaction.

However, arrangements have been put in place as soon as you indicate your interest, forward to me your Telephone Number, Fax Number and your Postal Address so that i can send it to my son for him to contact you .the Certificate of Deposit and other necessary documents, are with my son, he will give you this doccunment to enable you to claime this funds as my beneficiary.

Conclusively, we have agreed to offer you 30% of the total sum while 70% is to be held on trust by you until we decide on a suitable business investment in your country subsequent to our free movement by the Nigerian Government.

MR. WANG QIN HANG SENG BANK LTD. DES VOEUX RD. BRANCH, CENTRAL HONG KONG, HONK KONG. REPLY TO:w_qin56@yahoo.com.hk

May this year bring joy,peace,happiness and prosperity to you and your family. Let me start by introducing myself. I am Mr. Wang Qin credit officer of the Hang Seng Bank Ltd in Hong kong. I have a concealed business suggestion for you.Before the U.S and Iraqi war our client General. Ibrahim Moussa who was with the Iraqi forces and also business man made a numbered fixed deposit for 18 calendar months, with a value of ($20.5 M)Twenty million Five Hundred Thousand United State Dollars only in my branch. Upon maturity several notice was sent to him, even during the war early this year.

Again after the war another notification was sent and still no response came from him. We later find out that the General and his family had been killed during the war in bomb blast that hit their home.After further investigation it was also iscovered that Gen. Ibrahim Moussa did not declare any next of kin in his official papers including the paper work of his bank deposit. And he also confided in me the last time he was at my office that no one except me knew of his deposit in my bank. So, Twenty million Five Hundred Thousand United State Dollars is still lying in my bank and no one will ever come forward to claim it.

What bothers me most is that according to the laws of my country at the expiration 3 years the funds will revert to the ownership of the HongKong Government if nobody applies to claim the funds. Against this backdrop, my suggestion to you is that I will like you as a foreigner to stand as the next of kin to Gen. Ibrahim Moussa so that you will be able to receive his funds.

WHAT IS TO BE DONE: I want you to know that I have had everything planned out so that we shall come out successful. I have contacted an attorney that will prepare the necessary document that will back you up as the next of kin to Gen.Ibrahim Moussa, all that is required from you at this stage is for you to provide me with your Full Names and Address so that the attorney can commence his job. After you have been made the next of kin, the attorney will also file in for claims on your behalf and secure the necessary approval and letter of probate in your favor for the move of the funds to an account that will be provided by you. Once the funds have been transferred to your nominated bank account we shall share in the ratio of 70% for me, 30% for you. Should you be interested please send me your private phone and fax numbers for easy communication and I will provide you with more details of this operation.

Please reply through this EMAIL: w_qin56@yahoo.com.hk Your earliest response to this letter will be appreciated.

I am Mr.Mallon Victor Chairman Contract Awarding and Tender Committee of African Union (AU), Sub- Head Accra Ghana. Forgive my contact because this letter comes to you as a surprise, as you don't know of it's coming before. My contact is for you to please assist in the transfer of Fifty-Eight Million, Four Hundred Thousand ($58,400,000.00) to any safe account of your choice in your country, be it personal or company's account. This money was gotten from over invoices I and two of my colleagues, account and secretary of the above mentioned department prepared from the original contracts bills the committee awarded to contractors who supplied foods, hard and softwares, pharmaceutical and medical equipments to the peacekeeping mission troop in Liberia, Sierra-Leone, Somalia and Cote'd Vore civil wars.

All lope holes leading to its removal were sealed off with legal documents attached to the original invoices. Because of the political instability in some of the African countries and the law guiding our service to African Union, which prevents we civil servants from operating foreign account, we were unable to carry out this transfer since a while. This unhealthy situation forced us to deposit the money with a security company in Accra Ghana as "African Gold", for a long time now, awaiting a foreign person/company we will present as the owner for collection of the money. Now that political instability in Africa has changed though our right to operate foreign account has not been given to us and we now are getting close to our retirements, we decided to seek your mutual partnership into this huge money transfer project.

But before we do this, we need to arrange for seeing ourselves face to face to discuss heartily then commence and conclude this transfer. It was our general wish to seek for your assistance to provide us with the facilities to transfer this money out of Africa and we solely belief you will assist in transferring this money to your position successfully. To make this transaction a success, all the legal documents backing the transfer of this $58,400,000-00 out of Africa to your place of choice is made ready and will be sent to you as quickly as we receive your acceptance to assist. It was this ethnic law preventing we civil servants from operating foreign account, made us to need your assistance as a foreigner to enable us get this money shifted to any account of your choice in your country.

Bearing in mind that your assistance is highly needed, we have decided to give you 20% of the total money at the end of this transaction as your share for assisting, 5% is kept aside for expenses while 75% will be for me and my colleagues. The project is expected to be successfully completed if you give us the total cooperation needed from your side. For security of this money, you and us, we expect your confidentiality and utmost secrecy in this transfer. The confidentiality this transfer will get from both sides through out the transferring process and successful conclusion of this transaction will make us retire peacefully and live to establish businesses that will brighten the entire lives of our families in future. There is no risk involved. Contact me upon the receipt of this mail through my email for more details on the procedure.

Subj: Dear Good Friend. Date: 5/9/2005 12:14:13 PM Pacific Daylight Time From: r.john@virgilio.it . Dear Good Friend.

I am Mrs.Rose John from Solomon Islands. I am married to Mr.John who worked with our Embassy in Ivory Coast for nine years before he died on the 15th August 2004. We were married for eleven years without a child. He died after a brief illness that lasted for only four days.

Ever before his death we were both born again Christians and have sown into many ministries. Since his death I decided not to remarry, but feeling quite lonely if not the Lord who has been my partner and comforter.

When my late husband was alive he deposited the sum of$8.5 Million withal Bank in Cote D Loire. Presently this money is still in the custody of the Bank in Cote D Loire. Recently, my Doctor told me that I would not last for the next Eight months due to cancer problem. Having known my condition I decided to donate this fund to a church, organization or good person that will utilize this money the way I am going to instruct herein.

I want a church, organization or good person that will use these funds to help the orphans, widows and other people that need financial assistance. Using part of this money to provide facilities for God?s work, taking the gospel to greater height is my major reason of donating these funds out. The Bible made us to understand that blessed is the hand that grivet". l took this decision because I don't have any child that will inherit this money and my husband relatives are not Christians and it had been their wish to see my husband dead in order that they might inherit his wealth since we have no son. These people are therefore not worthy of this inheritance.

This is why I am taking this decision. Meanwhile I am not afraid of death hence I know where I am going. It is only a sinner who's death is painful I don't need any telephone communication in this regard because of my health hence the presence of my husband's relatives around me always. I don't want them to know about this development and l know that With God all things are possible.

As soon as I receive your reply I shall give you the contact of the Bank in Cote d' Loire. I will also issue a letter of authorization to the bank that will prove you the present beneficiary of this money. I also want you to always uplift me in prayer.

My happiness is that I lived a life of a worthy Christian. Whoever that Wants to serve the Lord must serve him in truth and faith, "serving him with all you have, knowing that naked we come and naked we must go" Contact me on the this email address and any delay in your reply will give me room in sourcing another good person, church, organization for this same purpose. Please assure me that you will act accordingly as I Stated herein.

ATTENTION. I write to inform you of my desire to acquire estates or landed properties in your country on behalf of the Director of Contracts and Finance Allocation of the Federal Ministry of works and Housing in Nigeria. Considering his very strategic and influential position, he would want the transaction to be strictly as confidential as possible. He further want his identity to remain undisclosed at least for now, until the completion of the transaction. Hence our desire to have an overseas agent.

I have therefore been directed to inquire if you would agree to act as our overseas agent in order to actualise this transaction. The deal in brief is that the funds with which to carry out our proposed investments in your country is presently in a coded account in the Nigerian apex bank and we need your assistance to transfer the funds to your country or any safe account outside your country in a convenient bank account that will be provided by you before we can put the funds into use. For this you shall be considered to have executed a contract for the ministry. The contract sum of which shall run into USD15.5Million of which your share shall be 30% if you agree to be our overseas agent. Your area of specialisation does not matter in this transaction, all that is required of you is a safe account and your willingness to assist us acquire estates in your country.

As soon as payment is effected and the amount mentioned above is successfully transferred into your account, we intend to use our own share in acquiring some estates abroad. For this too, you shall serve as our agent . It might interest you to note that last year, a similar transaction was carried out with one MR. CHIENCHEN YU of Taiwan but after securing the payment approvals, and payment effected, MR.CHIENCHEN YU changed his numbers and addresses, and was no where to be found on our getting to Taiwan. That was how we lost USD7.5Million. So this time around , I will be with you before the remmittance is made into your provided account to avoid future occurrence and allow trust to play a very minimal role until performance is seen.

You are requested to communicate your acceptance or otherwise of this proposal, through my email address. After which we shall discuss in details the modalities for seeing this transaction through. If however, you are not disposed to assist, kindly destroy this letter in view of the confidentiality of the proposed transaction and interest of personalities involved.

How are you today? You may be surprised to receive this letter from me,since you do not know me personally, but for purpose of introduction.

I am MR. JAMES JOHN JEFTHA, the first son of DR, PETER JEFTHA , who was recently murdered in the land disputed in ZIMBABWE. I got your contact through my personal search for a honest and trustworthy individual,who can help my family in receiving this fund, for proper investment and safe keeping, And I decided to write to you, for assistance and business co-operation. Before the death of my father, he had taken me to oversea to deposit the total sum of(US$16,8Million United States Dollars ), with a security and finance company, as if he foresaw the looming danger in Zimbabwe.

The money was deposited in a box as gem stones to avoid demurrage from the Security Company. This amount was made for establishment of an industry in UK.

This land problem came when Zimbabwean President MR. ROBERT MUGABE, introduced a new Land Act which wholly affected the rich white farmers and some few black farmers. This resulted in killing and mob action by Zimbabwean war veterans and some lunatics in the society. In fact, more than thirty(30) people have been killed because of this Land Reform act.

Heads of governments from the west especially Britain have condemned Mugabeâ€™s new Land Reform Act and for this reason,SADC(Southern African Development Community) heads of states have met and voiced their support for Mr.Mugabe. South African President and the President of Malawi have been sent by SADC to Britain to support Mugabeâ€™s new Land Reform Act.

It is against this background, that I and my family who are currently staying in europe right because of this problem, have decided to transfer my fatherâ€™s money to a foreign account. As the eldest son of my father, I am saddled with this responsibility of seeking a genuine account where this money could be transferred without the knowledge of my government who are bent on taking everything we have got and other African Governments seem to be playing along with them.

I am faced with the dilemma of investing this amount of money in Africa for fear of going through the same experience in future since most of the countries have lost similar political history. However, the europian union Foreign Exchange Policy where i am right now, does not allow such investment as I am seeking for Asylum. I don"t want to disclose all the information about me, and where i am residing right now for fear of having my asylum request cancelled by the authorities in my host country,but immediately you get back to me, I will give you the necessary information.

As a business person, whom I have to entrust my future and that of my family in his hands, I must let you know that this transaction is risk-free and the nature of your business does not necessarily matter. Therefore, if you accept to assist my family and me, we are willing to offer 30% of the total sum for your assistance needed,60% for me and my family while 10% will be mapped out for any pre-transfer charges or bank charges. I would wish to invest in your country on commercial properties and buying of rents based on your advice or from experts in your country.

If this proposal is acceptable by you, please, send me your contacts; address,telephone and fax numbers.

YOU SHOULD NOTE THAT THIS TRANSACTION IS HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL AND SHOULD BE KEPT WITHIN YOU ALONE.

YOUR URGENT RESPONSE AND ACCEPTANCE WILL BE HIGHLY APPRECIATED. PLEASE FORWARD YOUR REPLY TO MY PRIVATE ADDRESS:

Please expedite action and reply to this my private email address:(solomonkabiah@terra.com.mx)

Although we have not met, and I decided to contact you for assistance. I was, until recently, a final year engineering student of the University of Sierra Leone, West Africa. Early in January2001 , the rebels in my country struck our township and killed my parents in one of their attacks. My late father, Honorable JAMES KABIAH, being the director of sierra leone daimond and gold minner cooperation was a prime target.

Fortunately for me, I was in school when the attack took place. I equally lost my only sister to the rebels. When I got home for the remains of my parents and the subsequent burial that followed, I discovered a document indicating that my late father had deposited some $27.Million United States Dollar with one of the security company here in abidjan cote d'ivorie.

This money, according to the document, was meant for the building of an ultra morden hospital in memory of my grand father by my late father,when I complete my studies.

Upon the discovery of this document, I travelled to the cote d'ivorie to trace the security company and to make claims for the said money as the only surviving next of kin to my father.

But deliberatley, I have kept all my uncles and Aunts out of the issue as none of them will be happy to know I am in possession of such money. I have succeded in making the people at the security company believe that I am the next of Kin and all the documents related to this are now with me.

And I do not know what to do with it, but I have decided to contact you to seek your assistance in helping me to take it out to your country and help me to come to your country to continue my education and you will help me to get the money invested until such a time that I will be ready to begin to use it.

I am really desperate as I am the only one know in my family.please,Let me know what you want as compensation for helping me to solve this my problem, because the security company said that they will not release the cash trunk box a lone for me unless i get involve of my father late business associate because accordinding to my late father they said that he deposited the cash trunk box un behalf of his foreign business associate but he did not mention any name of the person and i dont know the person, so please let me use you as my late father foreign associate in orther for them to release this cash trunk box for us.

But most importantly,I seriously appeal that you maintain high level of secrety and confidentiality in the whole thing.

Please I know that, this letter may sound strange and incredible to you, Therefore for the sake of God and humanity give an immediate positive consideration and reply to me through this my private e-mail address:(solomonkabiah@terra.com.mx)

I will willingly agree to offer you any suitable percentage of the money you will propose as your compensation for your assistance with regards to the above.

Re: Transfer of (US$25,500.000.00) Twenty Five Million Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars.

We want to transfer abroad the sum of (US$25,500.000.00) Twenty Five Million Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars. From a security company, Fortune Securities & Vault SA, Madrid, Spain. I want to ask you to quietly look for a reliable and honest person who will be capable and fit to provide either an existing bank account or to set up a new bank account immediately to receive this money, even an unfunded [empty] account can serve the purpose of receiving this money, as long as you will remain honest to me till the end of this important business transaction. I want to believe that you will never let me down either now or in future.

I am Mr. Victory Spence, consultant Auditor General, Fortune Securities & Vault Services, Madrid-Spain. During the course of our auditing, I discovered a floating fund in an account opened in the security company in 1990 and since 1993 nobody has operated this account again. After going through some old files in the records, I discovered that the owner of the account died without a [heir], hence the money has been floating and if I do not remit this money out urgently it will be forfeited to Fortune Securities & Vault Services, for nothing.

The owner of this account was Mr. Thompson Watson a foreigner, and an industrialist, he died since 1993 and no other person knows about this account or anything concerning it. The account has no beneficiary and my investigation proved to me as well that Mr. Thompson Watson until his death was the chief executive officer, Diamond Safari [Pty] SA.

I am contacting you as a foreigner because this money can only be approved to a foreigner with a valid international passport, driver's license and foreign account because the money is in US dollars and the former owner of the account Mr. Thompson Watson was a foreigner.

I will like us to meet to sign a binding agreement that will bind us together in the business. I am revealing all these to you with the belief that you will never let me down in this business. You are the first person I am contacting for the business so please reply urgently for me to tell you the next step to take.

I require you to please forward to me your telephone and fax numbers; contact address and your bank account details that will be used in transferring the money. You will have to give me the assurance when we meet that this money will be intact pending our physical arrival in your country for sharing and disbursement of the fund using the following sharing formula. 25% of total sum will be for your assistance, 70% will be for us while 5% will be set aside to refund or take care of all the expenses that will be incurred by both parties during the course of the transfer.

My name is SALIM IBRAHIM a merchant in Dubai, in the U.A.E.I have been diagnosed with Esophageal cancer It has defiled all forms of medical treatment, and right now I have only about a few months to live, according to medical experts.

I have not particularly lived my life so well, as I never really cared for anyone (not even myself) but my business. Though I am very rich, I was never generous,I was always hostile to people and only focused on my business as that was the only thing I cared for. But now I regret all this as I now know that there is more to life than just wanting to have or make all the money in the world.

I believe when God gives me a second chance to come to this world I would live my life a different way from how I have lived it. Now that God has called me, I have willed and given most of my property and assets to my immediate and extended family members as well as a few close friends.

I want God to be merciful to me and accept my soul so, I have decided to give also to charity organizations, as I want this to be one of the last good deeds I do on earth. So far, I have distributed money to some charity organizations in the U.A.E, Algeria and Malaysia. Now that my health has deteriorated so badly, I cannot do this myself anymore.

I once asked members of my family to close one of my accounts and distribute the money which I have there to charity organization in Bulgaria and Pakistan, they refused and kept the money to themselves.

Hence, I do not trust them anymore, as they seem not to be contended with what I have left for them.

The last of my money which no one knows of is the huge cash deposit of (Twenty million five hundred thousand u.s dollars) that I have with a finance/Security Company abroad. I will want you to help me collect this consignment and dispatched it to charity organizations.

I am hassan.k. Mohammed, Bank Manager of Sapphire Finance Group Ltd.This is an urgent and very confidential business proposition.

On June 6, 2000,a Foreign Oil consultant/contractor with the Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation, Mr.Paul Farrel made a numbered time(Fixed) Deposit for twelve calendar months, valued at US$26,500,000.00,(Twenty-six Million, five hundred thousand Dollars only) in my branch.

Upon maturity,I sent a routine notification to his forwarding address but got no reply. After a month,we sent a reminder and finally we discovered from his contract employers, the National Petroleum Corporation that Mr.Paul Farrel died f! rom an automobile accident.

On further investigation,I found out that he died without making a WILL,and all attempts to trace his next of kin was fruitless.

I therefore made further investigation and discovered that Mr.Paul Farrel did not declare any kin or relations in all his official documents,including his Bank Deposit paperwork in my Bank.

This sum of US$26,500,000.00 has carefully been fixed in my bank for safekeeping.No one will ever come forward to claim it. According to Nigeria Law,at the expiration of 5 (five) years, the money will revert to the ownership of the Government if nobody applies to claim the fund.

Consequently, my proposal is that I will like you as a Foreigner to stand in as the owner of the money which was fixed deposited in my bank. I am writing you because I as a public servant,i cannot operate a foreign account. I want to present you as the owner of the funds so you can be able to claim them with the help of my attorney. This is simple. I will like you to Provide immediately your full names and address so that the Attorney will prepare the necessary documents which will put you in place as the beneficiary of the funds.The money will be moved out for us to share in the ratio of 80% for me and20% for you. The paperwork for this transaction will be done by the Attorney.If you are interested, please reply immediately via my email and Upon your response,I shall then provide you with more details and relevant documents that will help you understand the

Please observe utmost confidentiality, and be rest assured that this transaction would be most

profitable for both of us because I shall require your assistance to invest my share in real

Wasalaam to you,and how are you doing?. My intention of contacting you is to solicit your assistance for a project which will be mutually beneficial.Though I know my decision to contact you is to a large extent unconventional, the prevailing circumstances necessitated my action. I am ZAINAB ABDULKARIM from Libya. I am married to Late Mallam USMAN ABDULKARIM of blessed memory was an oil explorer in Libya and Kuwait for twelve years before he died in the year 2000. We were married for twelve years without a child. He died after a brief illness that lasted for only four days. Before his death we were both devoted Muslims. Since his death I too have been battling with both Cancer and fibroid problems. When my late Husband was alive he made a huge deposit in millions of US dollars with a Deposit Company in oversea. (I will tell you the amount as we proceed).

Recently, my doctor told me that I have only six months to live due to cancer problem. Though what disturbs me most is my stroke sickness. Having known my condition I decided to donate this fund to either a Muslim organization or devoted Muslim individual that will utilize this money the way I am going to instructs herein. I want this Muslim organization or individual to use this money in all sincerity to fund mosques, orphanages, widows, and also propagating the word of ALLAH and to ensure that the society upholds the views and belief of the Holy Quran. The Holy Quran emphasizes so much on ALLAH'S benevolence and this has encourage me to take the bold step. I took this decision because I don't have any child that will inherit this money and my husband relatives are into some radical organisations and I don't want a situation where this money will be used in an Unholy manner. Hence the reasons for this bold decision. I know that after death I will be with ALLAH the most beneficient and the most merciful.

I don't need any telephone communication in this regard because of my health, because of the presence of my husband's relatives around me always. I don't want them to know about this development. With ALLAH all things are possible. As soon as I receive your reply on Email: zaib027@yahoo.co.uk. I shall give you the contact information of the Deposit Company in oversea where the money was deposited. I will also issue a letter of authority to the Deposit Company authorizing them that the said fund Have being willed to you and a copy of such authorization will be forwarded to you. I want you and the Muslim community where you reside to always pray for me. My happiness is that I lived a true devoted Muslims worthy of emulation. Whoever that wants to serve ALLAH must serve him in truth and in fairness. I will not stipulate any precise amount to reward you as it will have to be on pre-negotiated terms,based on your level of involvment.

Please always be prayerful all through your life. Any delay in your reply will give room in sourcing for a Muslim organization or a devoted Muslim for this same purpose. Until I hear from you by email, my dreams will rest squarely on your shoulders. May the Almighty ALLAH continue to guide and protect you. Allah Hafiz.

I am Dr.Kingsley Abu the managing director of Gulf Bank Of Nigeria Plc, the banker to the late head of state of Nigeria who died on June 8th 1998 under mysterious circumstance.

I got your contact through commercial department of your country's embassy in my search for a reliable and trustworthily person to handle this top-secret transaction. You must therefore keep this transaction a VERY TOP SECRET. THE SOURCE OF THE FUND The late dictator General Sanni Abacha deposited the sum of $25.3 million U.S. Dollars in his private account means which I am the managing director,but with serious conferment in me that I would never reveal this to anybodyapart from his wife Mrs. Mariam Abacha, which he go as an over invoice from the Ajaokuta Steel Mill the proposal largest steel Mill in African continent.

The contract was awarded to a Russian firm, but after his mysterious death,the new military government that emerged then set-up a commission of enquiries into all contracts awarded by the late dictator, but could not complete their mission due to the emergence of a democratic government headed by Chief Olusegun Obasanjo as the president of the Federal Republic of Nigeria,who vowed to continue with the predecessor commitment by setting up commission of enquiries to track down the account of the late dictator both in Nigeria and overseas, through different ways by media and other means. In this cause I have declared $800 million United states Dollars to the Federal Government of Nigeria as the family have no knowledge of the total amount deposited in my bank.While I have transferred the balance of $25.3 million U.S. Dollars to a subsidiary of Gulf Bank Plc. With the knowledge of three senior officers of the bank.

But we cannot lay claims to this fund due to our position in the bank. We therefore solicit your assistance in transferring this amount to your private or company account, as this transaction is risk free with our involvement. We thereby agreed to compensate you with 25% of the total sum while 75% would be shared among us, the officials. The said amount was transferred to SECURITY VAULT & FINANCE COMPANY IN ABROAD through diplomatic immunities granted to banks in Nigeria and coded for security reasons to avoid a re-occurrence of a past incident in London in which 1.6 Billion Pounds Sterling belonging to the late dictator was siezed.

If you have any positive response toward my proposal, please contact me without delay on the above e-mail address.

Valuable efforts have been made by my department to locate any of late William Barnes relative or his business partner to stand as beneficiary to his estates but there was no success in our search.

I will perfect all documents and proves to enable us transfer these funds.

Closest Avenue GHN Ernest Oppenheimer Road Bruma Lake, Johannesburg,2196 South Africa.

Complement of the season,I am Mr.Robinson Harris. I am the personal account officer to the great late INDUSTRIALIST who has an account in one of the top banks here in South Africa. The account was opened in 1998 and he died in 2003 without a written or oral WILL and since 2003 nobody has operated on this account again hence the money is floating and if I do not remit this money out urgently it will be forfeited for nothing.

I want to transfer the money ($125,000.000.00 USD) One Hundred & Twenty five million United States Dollars from a Prime Bank here in South Africa to an oversea account. First, I must solicit your strictest confidence in this transaction. This is by virtue of it's nature as being utterly confidential. I am sure and have confidence of your ability and reliability to prosecute a transaction of this great magnitude.

I solicit your assistance to enable us transfer the said amount into your safe account for unward investment.You can either provide us with an existing account or to set up a new Bank account immediately to receive this money, even an empty a/c can serve to receive this money, as long as you will remain honest to me till the end of this important business trusting in you and believing that you will never let me down either now or in future.

The owner of this account is a foreigner and no other person knows about this account or anything concerning it, the account has no other beneficiary and until his death he was the manager of the company.My investigation through the National immigration department proved to me as well that he was single as at the time of his entry into the Republic of South Africa. The amount in this account is USD$125 Million ( One Hundred & Twenty five Million United States Dollars ) only.

As a matter of fact, I have decided to transfer this fund abroad for investment. Your assistance as a foreigner is necessary because the management of the bank will welcome any foreigner who has correct information to this account which I will give to you immediately, if you are interested to do this business with me.There is no risk in this business. With my position and my personal contact with the manager of the bank, the money can be transferred to any account you can provide with assurance that this money will be intact pending our physical arrival in your country for sharing.

We will start the first transfer with Twenty five million [$25,000.000]. Upon successful transfer without any disappointment from your side, we shall re-apply for the payment of the remaining balance of $100 Million to your account. I am only contacting you as a foreigner because this money can not be approved to a local person here, but can only be approved to any foreigner who has the correct information of the account which I will provide for you.

So you should provide me with your correct account detail where you will like the fund to be transferred or you can set up a new account for the transfer even an empty account is ok. At the conclussion of the transfer you will take 35%,5% will be for any expenses both parties incurred in the process of this business and the remaining 60% will be for me. As soon as I hear from you and upon your strong assurance that you will not let me down once the fund goes into your account I will then start the processing of the transfer of the fund to your account without further delay.

Contact me urgently via email for further details and i will later give you my new satelite phone number.

NB: I want to assure you that this business is 100% guaranteed and there will be all documents of transfer to prove that the money going into your a/c is free from Drug/terrorist and money laundering.You are blessed.

From the desk of Kenneth Kolade ChairMan Contract Award Committee Federal Ministry of Aviation. Garki- Abuja-Nigeria

My name is Kenneth Kolade chairman of the contract award committee of the. Federal Ministry of Aviation. Sometime last year, the Federal Government of Nigeria decided to upgrade the Radar and Landing facilities at the Malam Aminu Kano International Airport,kano in Northern Nigeria. The contract ran into several millions of Dollars.

The contract was handled by a foreign firm but because of the huge monetary profit we envisaged we decided to over-invoice the contract sum. Now the contract has been completed and the original contractor has since been paid, but the contract balance of US$21.5 million, which resulted from the over invoiced contract sum that has been left in a suspense account with the CENTRAL BANK OF NIGERIA, is what I am planning to take out of the country for myself.

The problem is as a government official, I am not supposed to own fat bank accounts; talk less of having foreign ones. To this end, I am soliciting your assistance as a foreign partner who can assist me and receive this amount into your Account. I am ready to share this money with you on the basis of participation. I also have plans to invest part of this money in any viable business in your country under your care, as I am very close to retirement age.

In any case, I received a reference of you on the net while looking for a potential and reliable partner. Please if you accept my proposal do not hesitate to send me e-mail, so that I can provide you with the basic procedures for the release of the fund. It does not matter whether you or your company does contract project of the nature described here, the assumption is that you won a major contract and subcontracted it to another company, more often than not, big trading companies or individuals of unrelated field win major contracts here in Nigeria and subcontracts same to more specialized firms for execution.

BENEFIT: For providing the account where we shall remit this money, you will be entitled to 15% of the entire funds, 80% will be for me, while 5% has been set aside to cover any expenses that may be incurred by both parties during this transaction, both local and international.

Please I enjoin you to handle this transaction with utmost degree of maturity and confidentiality because I am still in active government service with the "FEDERAL MINISTRY OF AVIATION".

If I receive your response on time, this whole transaction could be accomplished within the shortest possible time based on your interest and determination, since the money is already in transit.

Dear Sir, My name is Mr. TONY MABETA, the elder son of Mr.JOHN MABETA of Zimbabwe,I got your e-mail address from the chambers of Commerce and Industries here in South Africa,please don't be worried that I choose to contact you through this medium it`s because of security reasons.During the current crisis against the farmers of Zimbabwe by the supporters of our President Robert Mugabe to claim all the white owned farms in our country, he ordered all the white farmers to surrender their farms to his party members and their followers.

My father was one of the rich farmers in the country and knowing that he did not support the president’s political ideology, the president supporters invaded my father's farm burnt down everything, killed him and confiscated all his investments.After the death of my father, my mother and I with my younger brother decided to move out of Zimbabwe for the safety of our lives. We took along with us the documents he used to deposit some fund in a safe deposit box with a security company in Johannesburg South Africa,as a treasure box,fully documented in my name as the first born of the family(TONY MABETA ) which amounted to the sum of US$12.7 Million United States Dollars to the Republic of South Africa. The funds 're presently being kept away in the secret vaults of a private security firm based here in Johannesburg .
