Nairobi â€" Kenya
Tel: +254 737395487
 
Hello,
 
My name is Sonbah Kombe, the son of late Eng. David Noti Kombe, the former Member of
Kenyan Parliament. I know my sudden soliciting will make anybody apprehensive and worried
but I have decided to contact you due to the urgency. In April 2008, Kenyan government
awarded a contract to my father to re-construct some major roads here in Mombasa city,
unfortunately he dies while the constructions were ongoing.
 
Just last year October, I and my mother discovered some important documents indicating t
hat my father deposited amount of US$8.2Million dollars with one of West African Banks in
Burkina Faso. We decided not to disclose the information to anybody due to confiscation of
our entire properties by Kenyan government because of my father�s inability to complete
the contract.
 
Hence we are unable to pursue the transfer ourselves and also to prevent the government
interference that is why we compose this letter to soliciting your collaboration to stand as
my father�s business partner to transfer the money into your account overseas as we
have the necessary information�s to backup the claim.
 
On the smooth conclusion of the transfer, you would entitle with 25% for your assistance.
And Upon your responds to handling the transfer, we will send you more details on how the
fund should be transferred into your account and don�t forget to provide us your contact
information for easy communication.
 
Yours faithfully,
Sonbah Kombe

Sonbah -

    This is America! 8.2 million??? We don not mess with such small amounts here.

    Get back to me when you have some REAL mony to transfer. We don't touch anything
under 50 million, for starters.

     If you respond to me, it is vital that you copy back this whole e-mail under your answer.
I don't save sent mail, so if you do not copy back what you are answering, I will not
remember you by the time I get your answer, due to the volume of mail I get.

Hey Howard -

     This is not top secret at all! It's posted right near the top of the page, at
www.libertywatchradio.com/scams . Take a look! Guess it's not "top secret"
at all, is it?

     This is important: if you reply to me, you MUST copy back this whole e-mail with

DIVINE MISSION!!!

Greetings In the name of God Almighty,
 
First of all, I seek your indulgence to solicit for your assistance concerning the content of
my e-mail, although I am not comfortable discussing it through this manner, due to lots
of unsolicited mails on the internet presently, but I have no other medium to do so right
now since the situation of my health is deteriorating.
 
INTRODUCTION: I am Mrs. Dobrina Garvanska by age 63 years-old; I am married to late
Dr. Alexander Garvanska of blessed memory a citizen of Slovak Republic. Who was a
reputable business magnet-(Oil Explorer) in United Kingdom for many years before He
died of Heart Attack in the year 2007. We were married for Thirty-Five years with a child
and our only son died in died in a ghastly motor accident last year 2008. I have been
battling with both lung cancer and stroke.
 
My late husband deposited the sum of (£2.800.000.00) Two Million Eight Hundred
Thousand British Pounds Sterling with a Bank here in United Kingdom and my name
as beneficiary of the funds. After his death I decided not to remarry or get a child
outside my matrimonial home.

According to the doctor, my medical report quotes a very short life sperm due to my
health status presently. Maybe I may still have another 1-3 months to live, that I do
not know but God can say. That is just my faith as a deteriorating cancer patient.
But I pray to God to heal me so that I will be alive and see this work done as my
late husband instructed me.
 
Knowing my health condition I decided to donate the above mentioned funds to an
individual Muslim/Christian or any faith, so that He/She will utilize this money the
way I am going to instruct herein, I want an individual that will use this fund for the
less privilege ones like; orphanages, widows, also help our old ones who is unable
to cater for their needs. The Bible/Qur'an made us to understand that blessed is
the hand that giveth. 
 
I took this decision because our only son who is suppose to inherit this money and
properties is also late and my husband relatives has possesses some of my late
husband properties and left me almost nothing. I don't want my late husband's
relatives to know about this development, I know if I ask them to use these funds
for less privilege ones they will use it for their own vested/personal interest. I don't
want a situation where this money will be used in such manner, this is why I am
taking this decision, I know we have not meet before but I want you to consider
this mission as DIVINE MISSION!!! 
 
I am not afraid of death hence I know where I am going; I know that I am going to
be in the bosom of the Lord. Exodus "14 VS 14" says that the lord will fight my
case and I shall hold my peace.
 
I want you and your family to always pray for me because the lord is my shepherd,
my happiness is that I lived a worthy life and whoever that wants to serve the God
must serve him in spirit and truth.
 
As soon as I receive your reply I shall give you more details regarding this great
mission.


Remain blessed.
 
Yours Sister,
 
Mrs. Dobrina Garvanska

      Dear Good one!!!
 
I am an investment consultant working with Bank UBS AG Zurich at their offshore
department Zurich Switzerland. I will be happy to work this deal out with you if
you have a corporate or personal Bank Account and if you are capable to keep TOP
SECRET. I need strong Assurance that you will never let me down, if I transfer
this money to your account.
 
During one of our periodic auditing I discovered a dormant accounts with
holding balance of US$ 232,000.000.00 {Two hundred and Thirty Two million US
Dollars only} Sometimes a person will open a bank account, deposit money, and
then disappear into the tin air. Banks are not always able to find out what has
become of these silent customers, or to know whether they should follow up on
requests from people who claim to be heirs to the accounts. The main problem is
that the customer resides abroad and, due to bank secrecy, the bank cannot
publish notices in the international press to locate the depositaries. This has
led the majority of Swiss banks to refrain from opening small-deposit accounts
for foreign customers; for fear that they will forget that the account exists.
It has happened in the past, however, that customers pass away and their heirs
can neither prove the death, nor their heir ship. This was a frequent occurrence
during the wartime periods, and the banks have now set up a simple, rapid
resolution procedure operating to their customers' advantage.
Dormant assets are defined as any assets deposited with a bank (i.e. an
account, a custody account or a safety-deposit box) for which there has been no
contact with the customer in the bank's files for the last ten years or more.
If you believe you have claim to a Swiss bank account for which the holder
(e.g. an ancestor) has not been in contact with the bank for over ten years,
there is a fairly simple procedure to follow, depending on the date the account
was opened this account has not been operated for the past years. As at this
moment, I am constrained to issue more details about this business until your
response is received.
If you are not familiar with Swiss Dormant Accounts and profile, please take a
moment of your very busy schedules to read about Swiss dormant accounts:
  website;http://www.crt-ii.org/2001_list/publication_list1_A.phtm
 
If you know that you are capable to handle large or small amount on trust and
can keep secret and ready to take 40% of any amount I transfer to your account
from the dormant account and I will take 60%, send the following information by
return mail:
Beneficiary Bank name...
Bank address..................
Account no.....................
Swift code....................
Account name.................
Beneficiary address...........
Your phone no................
Your Occupation?
Age.........
 
Tell me more about yourself, while I look forward to receive the above
Information.
I want to re-assure you that this business is risk free and you can send an
empty account to receive the funds, provided that the account is capable to
receive incoming funds. Contact me urgently via email privately for further
details: (mrlouwiscage@gmail.com)
Thank you for your time and attention.
Warmest regards
mr.louwis.cage.

Hi,


Pardon me for not having the pleasure of knowing your mindset before making you this offer

write to solicit your assistance in a funds transfer deal involving US$3.5M.

This fund has been stashed out of the excess profit made last year by my branch office the
International Commercial Bank which I am the manager.

I have already submitted an approved end of the year report for the year 2005 to my head
office here in Accra-Ghana and they will never know of this excess. I have since then,
placed this amount on a Non-Investment Account without a
beneficiary.

Upon your response, I will configure your name on our database as holder of the Non-
Investment Account. I will then guide you on how to apply to my head office
for the Account Closure/ bank-to-bank remittance of the funds to your designated bank

If you concur with this proposal, I intend for you to retain 30% of the funds while 70%
shall be for me.

I have contacted you to seek your interest and willingness to assist with this arrangement.
But I am assuring you, there is no risk as the money in question is in a coded  account.
Could you assist and have your share. The money would be transfered to you and that is
the essence of contacting you. I will also have my percentage as soon as the money is
moved into your account. Can you arrange for any secured account where the money
would be transferred?, the total amount is $65m.


I could not have risked my company's license if I was not sure of the deal. Please I am
assuring you of the perfect arrangement. Would you be part of the deal?.All that is  
needed is for you to contact his fiduciary agent to the bank for him to assist you. He
is a former governor and he want this to be a secret.

Waiting for your response.

AUDITIN AND ACCOUNTIN MANAGER,

BANK OF AFRICA (B.O.A)

OUAGADOUGOU-BURKINA FASO.


Dear Friend,

I am the AUDITIING AND ACCOUNTING MANAGER BANK OF AFRICA
(B.O.A) here in Ouagadougou,Burkina Faso.In my department we
discovered an abandoned sum of USD$18m(eightheen million united
states dollars).in an account that belongs toone of our foreign
customer(MR.ANDREAS SCHRANNER from Munich, Germany) who
died along with his entire family in a plane crash.

Since we got information about his death, we have been expecting his next
of kin to come over and claim his money because we cannot release it
unlessn some body applies for it as next of kin or relation to the deceased
as indicated in our banking guidlings and laws but unfortunately we learnt
that all his supposed next of kin or relation died alongside with him
at the plane crash leaving nobody behind for the claim.

It is therefore upon this discovery that I now decided to make this business
proposal to you and release the money to you as the next of kin or relation
to the deceased for safety and subsequent disbursement since nobody is
coming for it and we don't want this money to go into the bank treasury as
unclaimed bill.The banking law and guidline here stipulates
that if such money remained unclaimed after fours years, the money will

be transfered into the bank treasury as unclaimed fund.

The request of foreigner as next of kin in this business is occassioned by
the fact that the customer was a foreigner and a Burkinabe cannot stand
as next of kin to a foreigner.I agree that 30% of this money will be for you
as a respect to the provision of a foriegn account , 10% will be set aside
for expenses incurred during the business and 60% would be for me
Thereafter, I will visit your country for disbursement according to the
percentage indicated Therefore, to enable the immediate transfer of this
fund to your account, you must apply first to our bank as relation or next
of kin of the deceased indicating your bank name, your bank account
number, your private telephone and fax number for easy and effective
communication and location where in the money will be
remitted. Upon
receipt of your reply, I will send to you by fax or email the text of application .

I will not fail to bring to your notice this transaction is hitch-free and that
you should not entertain any atom of fear as all required arrangements
have been made for the transfer.

You should contact me immediately as soon as you receive this letter.

Trusting to  hear from you immediately.

Yours Faithfully,

MR MADU.(B.O.A)

pleasure to solicit your assistance in this business proposal, and i am contacting you cause i do
not want to transact the business with somebody known to any of our staff or anybody around
here to avoid possible blackmail or leakage at the end.

The Proposal: I am very pleased as external superior to introduce an opportunity of transfer into
your account value the sum of $15.000.000 USD {Fifteen Million United State Dollar}. Hence, it will
be transfer into the state treasury as unclaimed fund, cause the fund as been floating in an account
opened since 1997 and no body has operated till date. And after much investigation, we discovered
the holder died along with his entire family during plane crash without leaving a heir/ will. Then, i
quickly decided assigning you as a business partner to this deceased customer. Mr. Schranner
Andreas, for safety and subsequent disbursement since nobody is coming for it.

Actually, i could have done this deal alone but we are not allowed to operate a foreign account in
the country as a civil servant, and this is major reason why it will require a second party or fellow
who will forward claims as the next of kin with affidavit of trust/ oath and also present a foreign
account where the fund will be re-transferred into after due verification and clarification by the
authorities. And it might also interested you that, all the necessary arrangement of putting claim
over this fund as the deceased applicant to get the required approval of transferring this money
to a foreign account has been put in place and directives.

All the needed information will be probably relayed to you immediately as you indicate your interest
and willingness to assist me, and by benefiting yourself to this great business opportunity. And i
agreed that 45% of this money will be for you as respect to the provision of a foreign account, 5%
will be set aside for expenses incurred during transfer and 50% will be for me, after all you have
nothing to fear as your interest and identity will be legally protected, cause we have secured
from the probate an order of mandamus to locate any of deceased beneficiaries.

Moreover, your urgent respond will be properly appreciated to this regards if your capability is
assured to champion this business opportunity and make sure you keep these content secretly
cause i am still in the service and intend to retire after the conclusion of this deal, to enable me
monitor the whole situation before coming over for subsequent sharing according to my
percentages indicated.

Here's a guy that's clueless:

Dear Sir/Madam,

My name is Jude Pressley.I am the store keeper of a security deposit company.I am making this
proposition to you in confidence.

There has been an abandoned Box in our safe keeping for over Three years now.The depositor, a
Canadian, is one Teddy Owen.His next of kin as we have in our record is Mrs Linda Owen.

When I realised that this iterm of deposit has been abandoned for a very long time,which is unusual,
I decided to carry out investigation on my own.I howeve discovered that Mr.Owen was involved in a
car accident and died instantly along with his wife.

He survived with no children.So,there is no one to come forward and lay claim to this iterm in our
vault as the benefitiary.

Mr.Owen was an oil tycoon buisness man who has been coming to Africa to buy crude oil  via
Egypt and Ghana.In a nut-shell,I am the only one who knows this facts,and I do not want the
money to go into the company's treasure,as our policy allows.

We have in our record that Mr.Owen box in our safe keeping is worth US$19.million.This means
the cash in the box totalsUS$19.million,I want to make a deal with you,I want you to lay claim
as the benefitiary to the Security and firm company as the beneficiary to Teddy Owen's box

First,we have to execute a POWER OF ATTORNEY{that is  change of ownership}.I will give you
a highly reputable Lawyer to effect the change to your name.

But first,I will like to hear from you before I take any step further,I want this transaction between
us to be confidential,And we have to be most truthful to eachother.

I will look forward to hearing from you,And I will appreciate your prompt response.
 
Thanks.Yours Faithfully,
Jude Pressely

Attention: Respectful Greetings and How are you today,
 
My name is ( Khamis Karim) I'm an orphan and I apologize if the contents hereunder

( $ 6.500.000, USD ) Six Million Five hundred thousand United state Dollars ) in
a fixed deposit
account for onward transfer as I was told by the bank director during the burial.

After the burial, I lived with my uncle to continue my education, after a year he
seized my late fathers
property and stopped me from going to school because I refused to give him
all the documents
concerning the deposited money.
I left the house and started to verify the existence of the said inheritance and to
look for honest and

I later learnt that the money was deposited in the bank with my name as next of
kin. So I decided to

Here's a whole discussion string with another scammer:

James -

    Although you did not do what I asked, (sending me the WHOLE discussion string INCLUDING
my replies,) I was able to piece it together from several of your e-mails.
This is EXACTLY what I try to avoid, and the reason I asked you to send me the
WHOLE thing. If you reply to this, it is essential that you send back this WHOLE message under
your reply.

     Anyway, what you are asking me do do requires a person to be licensed in the U.S. as an
investment broker or counselor. I am not so licensed. I strongly suggest that you contact ONLY
a reputable agency, such as American Express Financial Advisors, or Smith Barney. Anyone
who offers to cooperate with you who is not so licensed, is likely to be dishonest.

     Also, you are offering WAY too much for a fee. An honest broker will do what you ask for
1 - 2%.

    By the way, the original e-mail to which you responded, was a report of a 419 scam to your
internet provider so that your service will be terminated for fraud. It pays to actually read the
e-mails people send you. Mor information about your fraud is available at
www.libertywatchradio.com/scams , where this whole string is published for the whole world to
see. If you used half the intellect in honest ways that you devote to fraud, you might actually
amount to something some day.

    I might be willing to help you, but first I must ask you a question. If this is a "top confidential
proposal," why is this letter published on the internet at www.libertywatchradio.com/scams ?
    I mean if it is that confidential, how did a website get a hold of it and publish it?
 
Jim Shue

Top Confidential Proposal.
From: Major Joe Modu.

First, I am Major Joe Modu,From the Federal Republic of Cote d'Iviore,incharge of the 38th artilary
Brigade in Buake,Abidjan Cote d'Iviore.
 
During the past conflict in our country which has lasted for almost six years, we are on the opposite
side of the government fighting for our right and the right of thousands of Ivorien citizens, but the
government and other international communities sees us as rebels which we are not.
 
In the cause of my service, I was in charge of the importations of arms from Iran and other countries
which I do not have the zeal to discuss in this mail for now.

Brief Explanation Please:
 
For more than three decades after independence under the leadership of our first president, Felix
Houphouet-Boigny, Our Country has been known of its religious and ethnic harmony and its well-
developed economy.
 
All this ended when the late Robert Guei led a coup which toppled Felix Houphouet-Boigny's
successor, Henri Bedie, in 1999. Mr Bedie fled, but not before planting the seeds of ethnic discord
by trying to stir up xenophobia against Muslim northerners, including his main rival, Alassane
Ouattara.
 
This theme was also adopted by Mr Guei, who had Alassane Ouattara banned from the presidential
election in 2000 because of his foreign parentage, and by the only serious contender allowed to
run against Mr Guei, Laurent Gbagbo.
 
When Mr Gbagbo replaced Robert Guei after he was deposed in a popular uprising in 2000, violence
replaced xenophobia.
 
Scores of Mr Ouattara's supporters were killed and we the opposition party called for new elections
but it did not hold. In September 2002 our troop planned for a harmless mutiny but because of
unforeseen event it escalated into a full-scale civil war,Thousands were killed in the conflict. Not
Until the present a final peace has been restored which was inaugurated on the 30th of July 2007. 
 
Now our leader has fully joined the government as the prime minister but before this final arrange-
ment was many many of my men has been arrested and since I have been earlier instructed for
payment of some arms which I have not them remited the money to our clients and sensing what
is going on, I secretly deposited this money at a security company here and for security reason,
I made the security company to understand that the content of the box deposited with them is
family valuables and it is for onwards shipment to my foreign partner.
 
Now a final peace is in our country now, while the Government in power next step is to look for
the opossition army and send them to jail.
 
I do not want to spent the rest of my life this way, but I need your help to receive this consignment
as my foreign partner and I am ready to give you 35% of the total fund which is 21 Million United
State dollars.

All I need from you is your absolute understanding  and confidentiality. I am presently under cover
but I do not know how long it will take them to locate where am I with my only son (19 years) who 
survived in the war.
 
If you are willing to partner with me in this mutual business, please do not hesitate in replying back
so that I will give you more details concerning the deposit and claim procedures. I will like to speak
with you over the phone before we can proceed without any delay.
 
I await for your immediate response. Thank you and May Allah bless us.

Thank you for your understanding.
 
Major Joe Modu
Abidjan Cote d'Iviore.

Dear Sir/Madam,

 My name is Werner krusi , a member of the Swiss Banker's Association, a
body which works closely with the Independent Committee of Eminent Persons
(ICEP), Switzerland. ICEP is charged with the responsibility of finding bank
accounts in Switzer land belonging to non-Swiss citizens, which has been for
a long time now.
 It may interest you to know that in July of 1997, the Swiss Banker's
Association published a list of dormant accounts originally opened by
non-Swiss citizens. These accounts had been dormant since the end of World
War II (May 9, 1945). Most belonged to Holocaust victims. 
 The published lists contain all types of dormant accounts, including
interest-bearing savings accounts, securities accounts, safe deposit boxes,
custody accounts, and non-interest-bearing transaction accounts. Numbered
accounts are also included. Interest is paid on accounts that were interest
bearing when established.  The Claims Resolution Tribunal (CRT) handles
processing of all claims on accounts due non-Swiss citizens. A dormant
account belonging to Aufreiter Johann with a credit balance of US$14M plus
accumulated interest was discovered by me. The beneficiary was a victim
during the holocaust era, leaving no WILL and no possible records for trace
of heirs. The Claims Resolution Tribunal has been mandated to report all
unclaimed funds for permanent closure of accounts and transfer of existing
credit balance into the treasury of Switzerland government as provided by
the law for management of assets of deceased beneficiaries who died
interstate (leaving no wills). 
 By virtue of my office, I have all details and necessary contacts for
claim of the funds without any hitch. However, due to the sensitive nature
of my job, I need a foreigner to HELP claim the funds. To avoid traces i
will liquidate this account and deposit the funds with in a deposit safe
account in another country here in Europe.I will thereafter give you further
documents to enable you receive the funds.
 You will be required to provide me with your full name, address, and
telephone/fax. My share will be 60 percent and your share is 40 per cent of
the total amount. There is no risk involved and I hope that this is ok by
you.
 You can find additional information about the unclaimed funds through on
the following websites:

Dear Sir,
 
I am Mr. Michacl  smith, head of National Investment Bank Limited Ghana. I am contacting
you concerning a deceased customer and an investment he placed under our banks manage-
ment 7years ago. I would respectfully request that you keep the contents of this mail con-
fidential and respect the integrity of the information you come by as a result of this mail.
 
I contact you independently and no one is informed of this communication. I would like to
intimate you with certain facts that I believe would be of interest to you.
 
In 1999, the subject matter came to our bank to engage in business discussions with our
private banking division. He informed us that he had a financial portfolio of 120 million
United State Dollars, which he wished to have us turn over (invest) on his behalf. I was
the officer assigned to his case; I made numerous suggestions in line with my duties
as the de-facto chief operations officer of the private banking sector, especially given the
volume of funds he wished to put into our bank.
 
We met on numerous occasions prior to any investments being placed. I encouraged him
to consider various growth funds with prime ratings. The favored route in my advice to
customers is to start by assessing data on 6000 traditional stocks and bond managers
and 2000 managers of alternative investments. Based on my advice,

 We spun the money around various opportunities and made attractive margins for our
first months of operation, the accrued profit and interest stood at this point at over 30
million USD, this margin was not the full potential of the fund but he desired low risk
guaranteed returns on investments. In mid 2002, he asked that the money be liquidated
because he needed to make an urgent investment requiring cash payments. He directed
that I liquidate the funds and have it deposited with a security firm.
 
I informed him that the International commercial bank would have to make special arrange-
ments to have this done and in order not to circumvent due process, the bank would have
to make a 10 % deduction from the funds to cater for banking and statutory charges. He
complained about the charges but later came around when I explained to him the complex-
ities of the task he was asking of us.

 Large cash movements have become
especially strict since the incidents of 9/11. I contacted my affiliate and had the funds
available as he had requested.
 
I undertook all the processes and made sure I followed his precise instructions to the letter
and had the funds deposited with a security consultancy firm. This security firm is an
especially private firm that accepts deposits from high net worth individuals and blue chip
corporations that handle valuable products or undertake transactions that need immediate
access to cash.
 
This small and highly private organization is familiar especially to the highly placed and well-
connected organizations. In Line with instructions, the money was deposited with them. He
told me he wanted the money there in anticipation of his arrival from the
United State of America later that week. This was the last communication we had, this
transpired around 25th February 2003.
 
In June last year, we got a letter from the security company informing us of the inactivity of
that particular portfolio. This was an astounding position as far as I was concerned, given the
fact that I managed the private banking sector I was the only one who knew about the deposit
at the security company, and I could not understand why our client had not come forward to
claim his deposit. I made futile efforts to locate him.

I immediately passed the task of locating him to the internal investigations department of our
bank. Four days later, information started to trickle in, apparently our man was dead. A person
who suited his description was declared dead of a heart attack in Canne, South of France. We
were soon enough able to confirm all of this including cause of death. The bank immediately
launched an investigation into possible surviving next of kin to alert about the situation and
also to come forward to claim his estate.
 
If you are familiar with private banking affairs, those who patronize our services usually prefer
anonymity, but also some levels of detachment from conventional processes. In his bio-data
form, he listed no next of kin. In the field of private banking, opening an account with us means
no one will know of its existence, accounts are rarely held under a name; depositors use
numbers and codes to make the accounts anonymous.
 
This bank even gives the choice to depositors of having their mail sent to them or held at the
bank itself, ensuring that there are no traces of the account and as I said, rarely do they
nominate next of kin.

 Private banking clients apart from not nominating next of kin also usually in most cases leave
wills in our care, in this case; our now deceased client died in testate. In line with our internal
processes for account holders who have passed away, we instituted our own investigations in
good faith to determine who should have right to claim the estate.

 This investigation has for the past months been unfruitful. We have scanned every continent
and used our private investigation affiliate companies to get to the root of the problem.
 
It is this investigation that resulted in my being furnished with your details as a possible relative
of the deceased. My official capacity dictates that I am the only party to supervise the investigation
and the only party to receive the results of the investigation.

It is quite clear now that our dear fellow died with no known or identifiable family members.
This leaves me as the only person with the full picture of what the prevailing situation is in
relation to the deposit and the late beneficiary of the deposit.
 
According to practice, the security company will by the end of this year broadcast a request
for statements of claim to National Investment Bank Limited, failing to receive viable claims
they will most probably revert the deposit to the National Investment Bank Limited.

This will result in the money entering the National Investment Bank Limited accounting
system and the portfolio will be out of my hands and out of the private banking division.
This will not happen if I have my way.
 
What I wish to relate to you will smack of unethical practice but I want you to understand
something. It is only an outsider to the banking world who finds the internal politics of the
banking world aberrational.

The world of private banking especially is fraught with huge rewards for those who sit upon
certain chairs and oversee certain portfolios. You should have begun by now to put together
the general direction of what I propose.
 
There is $27m deposited in a security company. I alone have the deposit details and they
will release the deposit to no one unless I instruct them to do so.

 I alone know of the existence of this deposit for as far as National Investment Bank Limited
is concerned, the transaction with the late customer concluded when I sent the funds to the
security company all outstanding interactions in relation to the file are just customer services
and due process.

The security company has no single idea of what's the history or nature of the deposit. They
are simply awaiting instructions to release the deposit to any party that I may direct. This
is the situation.
 
Our bank has spent great amounts of money trying to track this man's family; they have
investigated for months and have found no family.

The investigation has come to an end. My proposal; I am prepared to instruct the security
company to release the deposit to you as the closest surviving relation. Upon receipt of the
deposit, I am prepared to share the money with you in half.

That is: I will simply nominate you as the next of kin and have them release the deposit to you.
We share the proceeds of the $27m as 50/50. You with the same very name as the original
depositor would easily pass as the beneficiary with right to claim.

I assure you that I could have the deposit released to you within a few days. I will simply inform
the bank of the final closing of the file relating to our late client. I will then officially communicate
with the security company and instruct them to release the
deposit to you. With these two things: all is done.
 
The alternative would be for us to have the security company direct the funds to another bank
with you as account holder. This way there will be no need for you to think of receiving the money
directly from the security company as it is not a conventional financial institution; they accept
deposits from only organizations thus;

what you hand over to them is what you get back. They do not have the means to process the
money. They can also send the money to you in cash depending on the way you prefer to receive
the funds.
 
We can fine-tune this based on our interactions. I am aware of the consequences of this proposal.
I ask that if you find no interest in this project that you should discard this mail. I ask that you do
not be vindictive and destructive.

 If my offer is of no appeal to you, delete this message and forget I ever contacted you. Do not
destroy my career because you do not approve of my proposal. You may not know this but people
like me who have made a tidy sum out of comparable situations run the whole private banking sector.
 
I am not a criminal and what I do, I do not find against good conscience, this may be hard for you
to understand, but the dynamics of my industry dictates that I make this move. Such opportunities
only come ones way once in a lifetime.

 I cannot let this chance pass me by. For once I find myself in total control of my destiny. This
chance won't pass me by. I ask that you do not destroy my chance, if you will not work with me let
me know and let me move on with my life but do not destroy me. I am a family man and this is an
opportunity to provide them with new opportunities. There is a reward for this project and it is a task
well worth undertaking. I have evaluated the risks and the only risk I have here is from you refusing
to work with me and alerting my bank.
 
I am the only one who knows of this situation, good fortune has blessed you with a name that has
planted you into the center of relevance in my life. Let's share the blessing. If you find yourself able
to work with me, contact me through this email. If you give mepositive signals, I will give you the
relevant details and initiate this process towards a conclusion.
 
I wish to inform you that should you contact me via official channels; I will deny knowing you and
about this project. I repeat, I do not want you contacting me through my official phone lines nor
do I want you contacting me through my official email account.Contact me only through this
email account I do not want any direct link between you and me. My official lines are not
secure lines as they are periodically monitored to assess our level of customer care in line
with our total Quality Management Policy. Please observe this instruction religiously.
 
Please, again, note I am a family man; I have a wife and children. I send you this mail not
without a measure of fear as to what the consequences, but I know within me that nothing v
entured is nothing gained and that success and riches never come easy or on a platter of
gold. This is the one truth I have learned from my private banking clients. Do not betray
my confidence.

I await your response.Please you should reply to this email address

     Hi Mike! Thanks for taking a look at how "confidentially" I handled your request. You have
such poor judgement as to send this to someone in the media who has a special project to
privately expose internet fraud. Yes, FRAUD, you odiferous blot of nature.

     Why not get on your knees and pray to whatever you worship for an honest job? Surely
someone of your creative ability should be able to figure out something that augers to the
benefit of mankind. Hope your prayers are answered, or that if not a large rock falls from the
sky on your thought process and changes it.

ATTN:(HANDLE THIS INFORMATION SECRETLY)
Dear,
I am the manager of a prime bank in Africa.I have a very urgent and confidential business
proposition for you.On June 6th 1999, an Engineer  made a time deposit in a bank Which I
ampresently the Manager.He did not declare any next of kin in his application paper. The
money is very big and no one knows the source of this money because apparently the time
frame of his employment with the company here in Africa does indeed preclude such a large
amount of money.It can be assumed that he brought his money over from his country or previous
place of work but that is open to speculation.
However,the point is that he is dead and his employers are not aware Of this money,and therefore
it can be safely assumed that no one will ever come forward to claim this money, he died in 2003.
The total sum (inclusive of accrued interests) is still sitting in my Bank in the Dormant Account
Portfolio. No one will ever come forward to claim it now or in the future and according to our banking
laws, after 5 years,the money will utomatically revert to the Federal Government Treasury if the
Account owner is a foreigner and is certified dead but with you a foreigner applying for the transfer
of this fund to your nominated account anywhere in the world and all documents backing the transfer
legally secured and there is ertification that the funds being transferred are from non-criminal sources
we will have no problems.In short this will be a proper and legal money transfer and there will be no
related
risk!
We will have to process the initial paperwork to obtain approval from the Probate Registry (Ministry
of Justice) and obtain the Letter of ministration empowering you as Sole trustee/executor to the
deceased Estate afterwhich I will use my position and influence in the bank to effect onward transfer
of this money from our bank to your nominated account. If you therefore agree to be the official
beneficiary, then please note that you will be required to avail me with a bank account (a bank
account with zeroCredit Balance is ok).Your full address, phone and fax,full name and brief
background information on you (CV). As soon as I receive a positive response on your willingness
to assist me then I will initiate the processing of the transfer and in about 7 working days the
money will be in your nominated bank account for us To share in the ratio of60% for me and
40% for you.
This transaction is guaranteed to success without any
problems. If you agree to assist me by sending me the above requestedInformation, I will give
you my complete address,including phone/ fax etc and any further clarifications you may require.
Best wishes,
Dr Michael Adams

Good Day, Alvin, or whatever your name really is -

     Your letter below, is a great testament as to why we should not be a member of the
"United Nations." It has communist roots, and is a tremendous conduit for fraud, such
as you purport to perpetrate, below.

     Hopefully, the building will be peacably demolished and the land put to better use,
such as, say, an effluent processing facility, as that is its current function without the
societal benefits of same.

Good day to you.

I am Alvin Holman, a staff of the United Nations (UN) and I also know that this mail will
be of great surprise to you. I got your e-mail address from the Internet as I was
soliciting for a partner who will work with us. Please, do not see this mail as one of
those stories from some Africans of which I have received such too.

In recent times, there have been conflicts all over the world especially in the Middle
East, which has been of top concern to the UN. I happen to be one of the officials
assigned to Iraq. I also played a great part in seeing that Afghanistan is been rebuilt
and those casualties, especially children are well taken care of. During this period, my
partners and I were able to secure some amount of money amounting to Thirty Million United
State Dollars ($30M), which was moved to Europe. Moving this fund was easy because of the
connections my partners had. Now that things have settled, we want to move the money out
of the deposit company where it is deposited.

We are contacting you to work with us because we are civil servants and cannot do it
alone. The presence and participation of a neutral person is needed to achieve this
transaction hence my contacting you. Note that all the relevant documents will be in place
for this transaction to be hitch free. For your participation, you will be getting 20% of
the total sum.

This transaction will take not more than fourteen (14) banking/working days to be
finalized from the day of commencement. Treat with to secrecy, as we will not want a
blackmail or media scandal. You are the only person I contacted for this transaction and
will hope to get your reply ASAP for further correspondence via my Private email ID:  alvi
nholman11@yahoo.it



Yours faithfully,
Alvin Holman.

regime. Check out our FORMER HEAD OF STATES  (GENERAL IBRAHIM
BABAGIDA)( LATE GENERAL SANI ABACHA) and so many of them.
 
Now go to the senate house it is the same story, all the whole senators are
multi millioniers,it is the same in the with all the whole governors and all gov-
ernment offices in Nigeria but federal and state level, fraud is been taking
place every day by day. On a serious note that is why, i decide to use this
great opportunity i have now to make my self and you RICH, if only you can
be determined and be more focused, i tell you the SKY will be our  limit.
 
Having said that, my brother, there are so many DEALS on the pipe line, if
only after we are successful on this, then i will open up to you, because i
need a trustworthy someone who will keep SECRET and will not open up
to anybody nor make this DEAL a common knowledge to anybody then i
will tell you the kind of  STUFF i am made of you. I mean, i will make you
so rich.
 
Addition to this, my brother, if you can assure me that you will keep to my
SECRET CODE AND OUR WATCH WORD. SECRECY, SINCERITY,
FAITHFULLNESS, HONESTY, COMMIMENT, TRUSTHWORTHY, AND
DETERMINATION which is the SURE way to SUCCESS.
 
Lastly, Nigeria, has never got a good leader, rather all our leaders and self
centered, they want to enrich only their self and their family, they have so
many companies abroad and so many cash with foreign banks abroad.
Based on all this true story, i will appreciate you to and make SURE you
put in every effort and help me actualize this DEAL, then subsequent  
deals we shall have enough cash to finance it properly. Like i did say
before, i am going to make you A MULTI MILLIONIER in DOLLARS, and
i will also make you recover all you have lost in the past from all this
FRUADLET PEOPLE, just believe and trust in me, and do what i said
you should, i am like GOD sent to you, you can never regret dealing
with me. This is all i have for you, the ball is on your colt. You better
play it well, so that you will be happy for the rest of your life in this
world.

Osmond, or Kleem or whatever your name is -

     What you describe below is an act of bank robbery. Why would anyone in their right
mind wish to become an accessory after the fact in such a public way as on the internet?

In addition to that, as far as it getting "into the press," you sent this solicitation to a member
of the media. How smart is that? Your idiot solicitation is now published on the internet at
www.libertywatchradio.com/scams . Try to remember to breathe while you seek more gainful
employment.

Wendy -

       Well, you didn't get your wish about secrecy. Take a look at
 www.libertywatchradio.com/scams to see what I mean. How do you think the rest
of your attempt at fraud will go? Never too late to switch to an honest line of work.

Jim Shue

Hello Friend.

Its me Wendy King,  i want to donate what I have to the needy.
You Could be surprised why i picked you. But someone has to do it. I am
old and living with HIV AIDS, my husband also died of HIV AIDS and gave me
all that he had. I have been touched to donate from what I have inherited
from my late husband to charity through you for the good work of humanity,
rather than allow my relatives to use my husband's hard earned funds
inappropriately.

I hope to be fogiven for all my sins and I believe he has, because He is
merciful. I have been living with HIV AIDS for years. and i know that the
disease has no cure therefore i will surely die. I have made up my mind to
give out (Five Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars) towards the fight
against HIV AIDS, and other human related diseases. I want this to be done
through you. Part of the money would also be used to help the motherless,
less privileged and also for the assistance of the widows. Presently, i
can not answer calls due to the fact that my relatives are around me and I
have been restricted by my doctor from taking telephone calls because I
deserve all the rest I can get.

Presently,I have informed my lawyer about my decision in donating the
funds. I wish you all the best, and please use the money well and always
extend the good work to others. If you are able to carry out this task,i
will inform my legal adviser so that he can arrange the release of the
funds to you. I know i have never met you but my mind tells me to do
this,and I hope you act sincerely.I will pay you a handsome amount of this
money if you will assist me because I am now weak to do things myself
because of my HIV AIDS.

NB: I will appreciate your utmost secrecy in this matter until the task is
carried out,as I don't want anything that will halter this my last wish
Love,

Wendy King.

New scam! This one makes it look like you have an e-mail in some new account for you. And what
do you do? Click on the "read now" button. Ingenious way to get you to a place where they can
break into your computer! Not!

_______________________________________________________________________

Now here's some real fun with a 419 scammer-

BONGANI -

   Let me correct a couple of things here, briefly. First, you say below in all caps that this is "FOR
YOUR ATTENTION ONLY." No, it's not! It is for everyone's attention on the internet. If you think
anything on the internet is private, you are insane, but then again I don't think that many 419
scammers are that rational anyway. Your e-mail is of interest to everyone concerned with fraud.

      You said, "NOTE :IF YOU FEEL IT IS A FRAUD,PLEASE DISREGARD THIS MESSAGE
AND DELETE IMMEDIATELY." Really? Ignore fraud and it will go away? I think not. See below
for report of your abuse of terms of your e-mail account to both providers you are using. Your
"problem" just got worse! And if that is not bad enough, this whole discussion string is now
published at www.libertywatchradio.com/scams !

     You mentioned that you don't want any "leakage to the press." With the internet, we are all
"press" now. Not only that, but because you are very poor at what you do, you did not make
sure that members of the press (radio), like me, were not on your list. Bad career move!

You're having a bad day! Might just be time to unplug the laptop and go pray for an honest
occupation.

From Mr. Ado Zaki

My  E-mail Address
ado8050@yahoo.fr 

CAN I TRUST YOU???????

Dearest Beloved,

Please kindly go through this letter before you pass judgment because I
am in  need of assistance. I am Mr.Ado Zaki the son of late Alhaji
Sadique Zaki from Sierra Leone.I must confess my agitation is real, and my
words is my bond, in this proposal

My late father happens to be in control of a large number of farms
including cattle's and many sheep before he was poisioned by his foreign
business partners in Paris with my mother in one of their farmers
assication meeting because of greed.

But before his death my late father deposited some amount of money
outside our country in bank at the tone of Four Million United States
Dollars $4,000.000.00. So i and my little sister are no longer safe here as
the present government of  Sierra Leone are working with almost all the
killers of my late father as one of them has been just be made a
minister, name undisclosed because of security reasons.

Furthermore we have contacted the bank where the money is depsoited and
the bankers let us understand that they signed an agreement with our
late father that the total money must be transferred into his foreign
business partner account undisclosed to them and that is the major reason
why i am contacting you now for assistance.

All I needed from you now is your full names and address including your
direct and personal telephone number for easy communication as you know
that this transaction is a very confidential one.

Please Kindly get back to me immediately after you must have gone
through my message fill free and make it urgent. That is the reason why I
offered you 15 % of the total money amount, and in case of any other
necessary expenses you might incur during this transaction.

N.B Try and negotiate for me some profitable blue chip investment
opportunities which is risky free which I can invest with this money when it
is transferrred from the bank here, personally I am interested in
estate management and hotel business, please advise me.
For more explanation write me through my alternative e-mail address
(
ado8050@yahoo.fr
) .

And promise me and  my younger sister to be a father considering our
situation and not to betray us.

Thanks and God bless you and your family.
Best regards

Mr.Ado Zaki

Elaborate scam letter. This guy thinks that the more detail and story he provides,
the more likely you might be taken in by it. Not!


Good day,

I am Mr.Greg Stevenson, staff of Kleinwort Benson. I am contacting you
concerning a deceased customer and an investment he placed under our
banks management three years ago.I Would respectfully request that you
keep the contents of this mail confidential and respect the integrity
of the information you come by as a result of this mail.
I am contacting you independently of our investigation and no one is
informed of this communication. I would like to intimate you with
certain facts that I believe would be of interest to you. In the year
2002, the subject matter; came to our bank to engage in business
discussions with our private banking division. He informed us that he had
a financial portfolio of Six Million United States dollars, which he
wished to have us turn over (invest) on his behalf.

I was the officer assigned to his case, I made numerous suggestions in
line with my duties as the de-facto chief operations officer of the
private banking sector then, especially given the volume of funds he
wished to put into our bank. We met on numerous occasions prior to any
investments being placed.I encouraged him to consider various growth
funds with prime ratings. The favored route in my advice to customers
is to start by assessing data on 6000 traditional stocks and bond managers
and 2000 managers of alternative investments. Based on my advice, We spun
the money around various opportunities and made attractive margins for our
first months of operation,
the accrued profit and interest stood at this point at over Two million
United States Dollars, this margin was not the full potential of the fund
but he desired low risk guaranteed returns on investments.

In mid 2003, he asked that the money be liquidated because he needed to
make an urgent investment requiring cash payments in Helsinki- Finland.
He directed that I liquidate the funds and deposit it with a security
firm. I informed him that my Bank would have to make special
arrangements to have this done and in order not to circumvent due
process, the bank would have to make a 9.5 % deduction from the funds
to cater for banking and statutory charges. He complained about the
charges but later came around when I explained to him the complexities of
the task he was asking of us.

Cash movement across boarders has become especially strict since the
incidents of 9/11. I contacted my affiliate and made the funds
available to the security firm. I undertook all the processes and made
sure I followed his precise instructions to the letter and had the funds
deposited with the security firm. The Security Firm is a specialist
private firm that accepts deposits from high net worth individuals and
blue chip corporations that handle valuable products or undertake
transactions that need immediate access to cash. This small and highly
private organization is familiar especially to the highly placed and
well-connected organizations. In line with instructions, the money was
deposited with the security firm.
The deceased told me he wanted the money there in anticipation of his
arrival from Norway later that week. This was the last communication we
had, this transpired around 25th of November 2003.In June last
year, we got a call from the security firm informing us about the
inactivity of that particular portfolio.

This was an astounding position as far as I was concerned, given the
fact that I managed the private banking sector I was the only one who
knew about the deposit at the security firm, and I could not understand
why the deceased had not come forward to claim his deposit. I made
futile efforts to locate the deceased. I immediately passed the task of
locating him to the internal investigations department of Kleinwort
Benson.Four days later, information started to trickle in, apparently
our client was dead. A person who suited his description was declared
dead of a heart attack in canne, in Southern part of France.We were
soon enough to identify the body and cause of death was confirmed.
The bank immediately launched an investigation into possible surviving
next of kin to alert about the situation and also to come forward to claim
his estate.
If you are familiar with private banking affairs, those who
patronize our services usually prefer anonymity, but also some levels
of detachment from conventional processes. In his bio-data form, he listed
no next of kin. In the field of private banking, opening an account with
us means no one will know of its existence, accounts are rarely held under
a name; depositors use numbers and codes to make the accounts anonymous.
This bank also gives the choice to depositors of having
their mail sent to them or held at the bank itself, ensuring that there
are no traces of the account and as I said, rarely do they nominate next
of kin. Private banking clients apart from not nominating next of kin also
usually in most cases leave wills in our care, in this case; the deceased
died without a testate. In line with our internal processes for account
holders who have passed away, we instituted our own investigations in good
faith to determine who should have right to claim the estate.

This investigation has for the past months been unfruitful. We have
scanned every continent and used our private investigation affiliate
companies to get to the root of the problem. It is this investigation that
resulted in my being furnished with your details as a possible relative of
the deceased.

My present official capacity as the Head of Finance dictates that I am
the only party to supervise the investigation and the only party to
receive the results of the investigation. What this means,is that our
dear late fellow died with no known or identifiable family member. This
leaves me as the only person with the full picture of what the
prevailing situation is in relation to the deposit and the late
beneficiary of the deposit.

What I wish to relate to you will smack of unethical practice but I want
you to understand something.
It is only an outsider to the banking world who finds the
internal politics of the banking world aberrational. The world of private
banking especially is fraught with huge rewards for those that occupy
certain offices and oversee certain portfolios. You should have begun by
now to put together the general direction of what I propose. There is Six
Million dollars deposited in a security firm, I alone have the deposit
details and they will release the deposit to no one unless I instruct them
to do so. I alone know of the existence of this deposit for as far as my
Bank is concerned.

The transaction with our late customer concluded when I sent the funds
to the security firm, all outstanding interactions in relation to the
file are just customer services and due process. The security Firm has
no sign or idea,history or nature of the deposit. They are
simply awaiting instructions to release the deposit to any party that
comes forward. This is the situation. This bank has spent great amounts
of money trying to track this man's family, they have investigated for
months and have found no family. The investigation has come to an end.

This is what i want to do,I now seek your permission to present you as a
next of kin to the deceased, as all documentations will be carefully
worked to make you the beneficiary to the funds $6,000 000 00 (Six Million
United states Dollar),I am prepared to place you in a position to instruct
The security Firm to release the deposit to you as the closest surviving
relation. Upon receipt of the deposit,I am prepared to share the money
with you. That is:- I will simply nominate you as the next of kin and have
them release the deposit to you. We share the proceeds 60/40.I would have
gone ahead to ask that the funds be released to me, but that would have
drawn a straight line to me and my involvement in claiming the deposit.

I assure you that I could have the deposit released to you within a few
days. I will simply inform Kleinwort Benson of the final closing of the
file relating to the deceased. I will then officially communicate with
The Security Firm and instruct them to release the deposit to you. With
these two things: all is done. The alternative would be for us to have
The Security Firm direct the funds to another bank with you as account
holder. This way there will be no need for you to think of receiving
the money from The Security Company. We can fine-tune this based on our
interactions am aware of the consequences of this proposal. I ask that
if you find no interest in this project that you should discard this
mail. I ask that you do not be vindictive and destructive. If my offer
is of no appeal to you, delete this message and forget I ever contacted
you. Do not destroy my career because you do not approve of my
proposal. You may not know this but people like myself who have made
tidy sums out of comparable situations run the whole private banking sector.

I am not a criminal and what I do, I do not find against good
conscience, this may be hard for you to understand, but the dynamics of
my industry dictates that I make this move. Such opportunities only
come ones' way once in a lifetime. I cannot let this chance pass me by,
for once I find myself in total control of my destiny. These chances
won't pass me by. I ask that you do not destroy my chance, if you will
not work with me let me know and let me move on with my life but do not
destroy me. There is a reward for this project and it is a
task well worth undertaking.

I have evaluated the risks and the only risk I have here is from you
refusing to work with me and alerting my bank. I am the only one who
knows of this situation, good fortune has blessed you with a luck that
has planted you into the center of relevance in my life. Let's share
the blessing. If you find yourself able to work with me, contact me
through this email account. If you give me positive signals, I will
initiate this process towards a conclusion. I wish to inform you that
should you contact me via official channels; I will deny knowing you and
about this project. I repeat, I do not want you contacting me through my
official phone lines nor do I want you contacting me through my official
email account. Contact me only through the numbers I will provide for you
and also through this email address. I do not want any direct link between
you and myself. My official lines are not secured lines as they are
periodically monitored to assess our level of customer care in line with
our Total Quality Management Policy.Please observe this instruction
religiously.

Please, again, note that I am a family man, I have a wife and children.
I send you this mail not without a measure of fear as to what the
consequences, but I know within me that nothing ventured is nothing
gained and that success and riches never come easy or on a platter of
gold. This is the one truth I have learned from my private banking
clients. Do not betray my confidence.

I awaits your earliest response.
Mr.Greg Stevenson

This one is just too rich not to pass along. Here on the same day I get two almost identical
African relative scam letters, both claiming to be the only daughter of the deceased. And lo
and behold, miracle of miracles, they're both staying in the same hotel! Look at that, I caused
a family reunion between two sisters that didn't even know the other existed! It'sjust like
Luke Sykwalker learning that he has a sister!

Dear Irene and Floence -

     If you look at both of your letters, copied below, it seems that both of you are claiming to
be the only daughter of Mr. Joseph Damien. Could it be that you are sisters and do not know
it? It seems such a coincidence that you are both staying at the same hotel, so why don't
you have a family reunion, work it out, and get back to me? It would give me great joy to
know that I had brought a family together.

The jury duty scam. Here scammers try to take advantage of people's sheep
like qualities of compliance with authority. They'd have fun with me, I'd love
to serve on a jury! My request would be for scheduling!

This has been verified on Snopes.com (link listed below) and by the FBI
(their link is also included below).

It isspreading fast so be prepared should you get this call. Most of us take
those summons for jury duty seriously, but enough people skip out on
their civic duty, that a new and ominous kind of scam has surfaced.

Fall for it and your identity could be stolen, reports CBS. In this
con, someone calls pretending to be a court official who threateningly
says a warrant has been issued for your arrest because you didn't show
up for jury duty. The caller claims to be a jury coordinator. If you
protest that you never received a summons for jury duty, the scammer
asks you for your Social Security number and date of birth so he or she
can verify the information and cancel the arrest warrant. Sometimes
they even ask for credit card numbers. Give out any of this information
and bingo! Your identity just got stolen.

The scam has been reported so far in 11 states, including
Oklahoma
,
Illinois, and Colorado
. This (scam) is particularly insidious
becausethey use intimidation over the phone to try
to bully people into givinginformation by pretending
they're with the court system. The FBI and the federal
court system
have issued nationwide alerts on their
web sites, warning consumers about the fraud.

Here we have a modification of the "African relative scam," done by an alleged
"member of the clergy." Note my shameless promotion of my website to him.
Think he'll read all the posts there?

Pastor Chima -

     Why don't you take up a collection from your parishoners for the transfer fees and just
get the box shipped to you youself? If you'd like more information on how to do that, please
take a look at
www.libertywatchradio.com/scams . You'll get lots of tips and inspiration there.

Calvary greetings
 
I am an Alumni and a preacher and owner of Kingsway International Christian Church (KICC) Ministry
in London with name Rev. Pastor Kingsley Chima, and i will like to get advice from you. I believe the
advice i need will be profitable to you. A few year's ago i was in Liberia where i had established a little
congregation where i preached regularly, but the civil war escalated and the church was converted to
a hospital of sought. On one faithfull day three Gambian Soldiers came to me and left one trunk box
containing money with me and swore to come back for it.

When the war in Liberia intensified i deposited this box in a security vault in ivrycost. I was escorted
to ivrycost, by the ECOMOG soldiers who felt the content of the trunk were documents and hospital
materials and never cared to check the trunk. I was air lifted to England with other refugees then, i
stayed in England and when i was getting frustrated i returned to Africa only to find out that two of
the three Soldiers died in Battle while the last was declared MIA(Missing In Action).

Now i have the fund, which the soldiers said was over Twenty Five Million US Dollars (US$25 Million),
but it lies in a security vault in a Security Company in ivrycost.I was contacted in a letter dated 12th
of September,2005 by the security company asking me to indicate if i was in receipt of the letter as
a sign that i am living and still subscribed for their service.

I am interested in using a small fraction of this money, much less than one percent for a re-organization
of the work of God, but i do not need the rest and do not want to have any direct dealing with it, but i
need someone who will be able to use the fund better maybe for charity or something universally
profitable, i have thought of doing it myself but, my ministry is the apocalypse and i believe and preach
the soon coming of the Lord which
make me not indulgent in reliance on money or wealth in anyform.

Also I do not have the money that has incured on the service and safe deposit of the company that
holds the fund. I will be glad if you have any interest in the
direction of maybe managing or transmitting the fund as you prefer in your capacity and understanding
strictly for the work of God. Get back to me with your decision and idea through my secretary private email
sisterjoy_calvarychurch@yahoo.ca

The Almighty God will forever bless you for your help towards his church and his children.Be blessed in
the name of the Lord.

NOTE: AS REGARDS HOW I GOT YOUR EMAIL,IT WAS A SPECIAL
REVELATION FROM GOD,WHO REVEALED THAT YOU WOULD USE

This is an interesting twist on a "phishing scam" Knowing there are a lot of
competing scams out there, this clever scammer says that DUE to scams
that they are not part of, you need to log onto their "secure" server and
"confirm" your identity. Right, then get your identity stollen.

anyone be if they clicked on the link to "update" their info. (Link disabled

get one of these, save it with the headders and give it to your bank if it is the one
mentioned in the scam so their fraud department can run it down. If they are not

Slight twist on African relative scam, good response:

Janet -

     As an American, I don't need any more money, thanks. I can help you by suggesting
that you get out of the scam letter business. Find a job tha uses your real human potential
rather than simply attempting to remove money from suckers.

     There is a huge segment of the internet devoted to exposing people like you. I am part
of that segment, In fact I have even posted this very e-mail on my page as a warning to
others.

Another day, another scammer on the internet. Wrote this guy a short note, though:

Erickson -

     Why do you say that this is private, when your letter is published on a page on the internet?
Really Erickson, or whatever your name is, how could anyone trust you when your security is so
lax that your "confidential" communications are published right out in public where everyone
can see them?

     By the way, Yahoo has been notified of your use of their system outside their scam policies.
Look forward to your account with them being shut down soon. Have a nice day, and get an
honest job, if your character allows for it.

Dear Sir/Madam
 
I am a staff of a reputable bank here in South Africa.I will give you the name of the bank
and other important information if I receive a positive reply
from you. For security reasons I cannot disclose my full identity to you for now until I
am sure of your cooperation. I work in the operations dept where I serve as account
officer to numerous customers. One of the customers whom I worked as his account
officer was a wealthy diamond merchant from the Republic of Sierra Leone, a country
in West Africa. He lost his family in
the war.
 He was lucky to escape alive and came to this country with his wealth. Unfortunately
he died few years back. Because this man was good to me when he was alive, I took
it upon myself to travel to his country lastmonth, to see if I could locate any of his close
relations. On reaching there I discovered that his only surviving uncle died a few months
back. I sponsored this trip on my own and nobody in the bank knew I was undertaking
the journey so I did not present any official report of my findings in South
Africa.
Now there are two things I could do with respect to the dead man's money. First, as his
accounts officer, I could formally notify the bank authorities that the man is dead and has
no next of kin. In this case the money would be forfeited to the government after some
time. 0n the other hand, I can arrange for someone, a foreigner, to act as the next of kin
of the late manso that he/she can claim the money. This is the option l have decidedd
to take to help myself and whoever that God brings my way. I took this option after my
findings that this fund actually was a public fund looted by highly place government
officials under the brutal military government. I want you to be my partner. All you would
have to do is act as the next of kin of the dead man and the whole money in the account
will be transferred to your nominated bank account. As the account/s officer to the late
man, I have all the necessary documents that you require to claim the money in the account.
The total money in the account is USD$17 million. I hope to resign my job as a banker to
join you in a viable business partnership at the eventual transferof this fund. Kindly Reach
me immediately using the above contact information. Also provide me with your direct
telephone and fax numbers for easy communication.
Yours Truly,
MR JAMES VUKUBI

Greetings,
In appreciation of your esteemed contact received  through a reliable 
Source and the choice of your country I wish to  introduce myself .I am 
Prince William Duke the first son of His Royal  Majesty, WIWA DUKE 
(LATE) the traditional ruler of Eleme Province in  the oil area of 
Rivers State of Nigeria. I am making this contact to  you in respect of 
US $65,000,000.00 which I inherited from my late  father. This funds 
was accumulated from royalties paid to my father as  compensation by 
the oil firms located in our area as a result of oil  presence on our 
land which hamper agriculture which is our major source of livelihood. 
Unfortunately my father died from protracted  diabetes. But before his 
death he called my attention and informed me  that he lodged some funds 
with a security firm and Security Code  Numbers and other 
documentations was also revealed to me by my late father before his 
death, he then advised me to look for a reliable  business partner 
abroad, who will assist me in investing the funds in  a lucrative 
business as a result of economic instability in Nigeria.So  this is 
themain reason why I am contacting you to seek your  assistance for us

personnel that the owner of the consignment is his foreign partner 
whose particulars will be forwarded to the firm when  due.But I will 
guide you accordingly. As soon as the fund reaches, I  will then come 
over to meet you in person, so that we can discuss physically on 
Investment details. Based on this instance I and my  family have 
unanimously decided to give you 20% of the total funds, 2%  for charity

manage for my family. I hereby guarantee you that this  is not

economic and administrative capital of Republic of Ghana. This money 
was kept for us in my name, his only daughter. Right now I am a first 
year student of business management in one of the University here.My

his business ssociates, I don't even trust any other person here again 
including my father's brothers and sisters. 
Right now, I want you to

of us, as your assistance is required as a foreigner.

I use to head the Accounts department in my bank head office, but last
December I was asked to take position of a Manager of our branch in
Johannesburg who passed on, so that was how I became the present Manager
and discovered a fortune. As I resumed duty, I discovered an account with
total sum of $10,500,000 million that has not been operated on for the
past 4 years. From my investigation, I found out that this account belongs
to one Late Mr. Morris Thompson an American great industrialist and a

as next of kin to the late Mr. Morris Thompson, meaning that no one is
aware of the account. I cannot directly take out this money without the
help of a foreigner and that is why I am contacting you for an assistance
to claim the funds and share it with me. As the Manager of my bank branch,
I have the power to influence the release of the funds to any foreigner
that comes up as the next of kin to the account,

Slight twist on the bank branch manager scam: this guy claims he has the cash. Fun to tweak
his nose. Maybe I should have offered to send a courrier to pick it up?

Lewis -

      If this letter is "private and confidential," how come it is published on the internet?
www.libertywatchradio.com/scams .

     You assert that, "I KNOW FOR SURE THAT NO BODY IN THIS EARTH KNOWS
ABOUT THISDEPOSIT EXCEPT ME AND HER AS SHE HAVE BEEN DOING THIS
SECRETLY WITH OUR FIRM."

     Well, now, if it's published on the internet for all to see, that isn't true any more, is it?

      Glad to be of service! Feel free to call if you wish to respond: 520 623 4306. Just
ask for the "resident agent on 419 scams."

From Mr. Douglas Allotey   +233 276 803416

Greetings to you,

 

This letter must come to you as a big surprise, but I believe it is only a day that people
meet and become great friends and business partners. My name is Mr. Douglas Allotey,
the present branch Manager of a bank here in Ghana.  I write you this proposal in good
faith, believing that I can trust you with the information I am about to reveal to you. Like
I said, I have a transaction that will benefit both of us, as your assistance is required
as a foreigner.

 

I use to head the Accounts department in my bank head office, but last December I
was asked to take position of a Manager of our branch in Kumasi who passed on, so
that was how I became the present Manager and discovered a fortune. As I resumed
duty, I discovered an account with total sum of $12,500,000 million that has not been
operated on for the past 4 years.

 

From my investigation, I found out that this account belongs to one Late Mr. ANDREAS
SCHRANNER a German great industrialist and a resident of Munich, who unfortunately lost his
life along with his entire famillies in the plane crash of CONCORDE AIRLINE [Flight AF4590 ]
which crashed on 25TH JULY, 2000. You shall read more news about the crash on visiting this
site, which I got during my investigation; http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/859479.stm
The account is escrow call account, a secret type of account in my bank and no other person
knows about this account or any thing concerning it, the account has no other beneficiary. I
have kept a close monitoring of the account since then and nobody has come forward to ask
about the money as next of kin to the late Mr. Andreas Schranner, meaning that no one is
aware of the account. I cannot directly take out this money without the help of a foreigner and
that is why I am contacting you for an assistance to claim the funds and share it with me. As
the Manager of my bank branch, I have the power to influence the release of the funds to any
foreigner that comes up as the next of kin to the account, with the correct information concerning
the account, which I shall give you.

 

I am seeking your co-operation to present you as the next of kin to the account, so that my bank
head quarters will release the funds to you.

 

There is practically no risk involved, the transaction will be executed under a legitimate arrangement
that will protect you from any breach of law.

 

If you accept to work with me, I want you to state how you wish us to share the funds in percentage,
so that both parties will be satisfied.

 

Contact me as soon as you receive this message if you feel we can work together, so we can go
over the details.  Thanking you in advance and may God bless you. Please, treat with utmost
confidentiality.

 

I wait your urgent response.

 

Regards,  Mr. Douglas Allotey

You are required to furnish me with your contact details including phone

the authorities in charge from NNPC, FMF and the CBN which upon the
approval the transfer of the total contractual sum to your favor will follow.
 
We have met and agreed that 30% of the total sum will be your share while
the balance 70% will be for us this is because we will be requiring your
financial support as it will cost us money to see the transaction through
and with our findings, what we budgeted will not be enough to see the
transaction concluded.
 
More importantly, as soon as the application is submitted, all further
communication from the authorities concerned will be directly to you
as the rightful beneficiary, I will be there to guide you so you must always
contact me first before you respond back to any message.
 
If the above is acceptable to you, please respond immediately with

Don't you just love how in these form-letter scams, the theif inserts their name, bank

a bit more official dumbo! I also especially enjoy the references made to God and closing
with "God Bless" too. Those just warm my heart. Guess they must not believe in the
afterlife as these scams on innocent people would certainly earn them an eternity in

It's also great that they add "I ask that you do not be vindictive or destructive." if you

Tel:  +221 4409966.

Dear friend,

I know this email will reach you as a surprise, but need not to worry as i am
using the only secured and confidential medium available to seek for foreign
assistance in a business. I would respectfully request that you keep the
contents of this mail confidential and respect the integrity of the information
you come by as a result of this mail. I am contacting you concerning a customer
and deposit placed under our banks management 10 years ago,i am contacting you
independently of our investigation and no one is informed of this communication.
I am Mr.PETER JOB from Ecobank,Dakar-Senegal.Branch.This business request may
seem strange, but I crave your indulgence and pray you view it seriously as I am
convinced that you would be capable to provide me with a solution to a money
transfer. On 6th,june,1997, a Nigerian came to make a (fixed) deposit valued at
US$6,500,000.00(Six Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars )in  my branch to be
cla!
imed by a foreing beneficiary to be later named,upon maturity,we sent a routine
notification to his forwarding address but got no reply.
After three years of sending reminder with no responce,we decided to open an
investigation,and i was the head of the panel set up for the investigation,in
the course of our investigation i finally discovered the money was Part of the
loot the late Nigerian Ruler General Sani Abacha stole from Nigeria,the money
was deposited under a false name. you can  confirm it yourself via the website
below.
http://www.usatoday.com/news/opinion/columnists/wickham/2002-04-19-wickha
m.htm
.
On further investigation, I found out that no one knows of the deposit not even
his family members he died without telling any one of it.Therefore he did not
declare any next of kin or relations in all his documents, including his bank
deposit paperwork in my bank as the deposit was a secret one,so i decided to
keep the secret to my self as i view this as a once in a lifetime oportunity for
me. My bank has waited for the beneficiary to come and make claims but no one
has ever come forward,the reason is that he was yet to name the beneficiary
before he died and i am the only one aware of this fact because i am the one in
charge of the transaction.

This sum of US$6,500,000.00 and the interest is being rolled over with the 
principal sum at the end of each year. No one will ever come forward to claim it
According to my Country's law, at the expiration of 10(TEN)years,the money will
revert to the ownership of the SENEGALESE Government if nobody  applies to claim
the fund. Consequently, my proposal is that I will like you as a foreigner to 
stand as the beneficiary to the deposit so that the money will not get into the
hands of some corrupt Government officials. I assure you that I could have the
deposit released to you in a few days.  I will simply inform our bank of the
final closing of the file relating to the deposit.This is simple,upon your
approval,I will like you to provide immediately your full name and address so
that the Attorney will prepare the necessary documents and affidavits which will
put you in place as the beneficiary. We shall employ the service of two
attorneys for the!
  drafting and notarization of the WILL and obtain the necessary documents and
letter  of probate administration in your favour for the transfer.
Any bank account in any part of the world which you will provide will  then
facilitate the transfer of this money to you as the beneficiary.

The money will be paid into your account for us to share in ratio of 35% for
me,35% for you,20% for any charity organization of our choice and 10 % will be
set aside for expenses  incured during the business .  There is no risk at all;i
have waited eigth(8)years now to be very sure of this plan,the paperwork for
this transaction will be done by the attorney and my position as the Branch
Manager guarantees the successful execution of this transaction. If you are
interested, please reply immediately via the private email address below, upon
your response, I shall provide you with more details and relevant documents that
will help you understand the transaction. Please observe outmost 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 your country.
Please upon your approval of this mail message, send to me the following  to
enable me start t!
he processing of the fund transfer into your bank account:1.) The beneficiary's
name and complete info.2.) Your private / official telephone and fax number.

I am aware of the consequences of this proposal. I ask that if you find no
interest in this project that you should discard this mail. I ask that you do
not be vindictive or destructive. If my offer is of no appeal to you, delete
this message and forget I ever contacted you. Do not destroy my career because
you do not approve of my proposal. You may not know this but people like me who
have made tidy sums out of comparable situations run the whole banking sector. I
do not find this move against good conscience, this may be hard for you to
understand, but the dynamics of my industry dictates that I make this move. Such
opportunities only come ones way once in a lifetime. I cannot afford to let this
chance pass me by, for once I find myself in total control of my destiny. This
is my chance and I won't let it pass me by.If you will not work with me let me
know and let me move on with my life but please do not destroy me.I am a family
man and this !
is an opportunity to provide my family with new opportunities.  There is a
reward for this project and it is a task well worth undertaking.I have evaluated
the risks and the only risk I have here is from you refusing to work with me and
alerting my bank. Awaiting your Urgent Reply via my private email:

Dear Sir/Madam,

As a matter of Introduction,please i am Dr.Julius Margai, the Auditor General of
International Commercial Bank,Kaneshie First Light Branch,
Accra-Ghana. I have urgent and very confidential business proposition for you.
On May 20, 1999, an Iraqi Foreign Oil consultant/contractor with the BRITISH
PETROLUEM CORPORATION in collaboration withGhana Crude oil refinary
and marketing Company MR. DARA BARAZ.Made a numbered time (Fixed
deposit) for 24 calendar months,valued at US$20,200,000.00(Twenty Million
two hundred thousand dollars only) in this bank. Upon maturity in 2001, 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 Ghana Crude Oil Refinary and marketing Company
that Mr. Dara Baraz died as a result of torture in the hand of Sadam Hussein
during one of his trips to his country Iraq. 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 Dara
Baraz did not declare any next of kin or relations in all his official documents,
including his Bank Deposit paperwork in my Bank.

This sum of US$20,200,000.00 have been floating as unclaimed since 1999
in my bank as all efforts to get his relatives have hit the stones.

Dear Friend,

I am Hon. Dr. Gary Olisa, Director, International remittance/Foreign allocation department.(C.B.N); my office monitors and controls the affairs of all banks and financial institutions 
in Nigeria concerned with foreign contract payments.

I am the final signatory to any transfer or remittance of huge funds moving within banks 
both on the local and international levels in line with foreign contracts settlement. 

I have before me list of funds, which could not be transferred to some nominated accounts 
as these accounts have been identified either as ghost accounts, unclaimed deposits and 
over-invoiced sum etc. 

Your Name was among the people expecting the funds to be transferred into their account, 
on this note; I wish to have a deal with you as regards to your unpaid funds. I have your file 
before me and hope your data's are correct and untampered unless you reconfirm it not
 correct.

As it is my duty to recommend the transfer of these surplus funds to the Federal Government
 Treasury and Reserve Accounts as unclaimed deposits, I have the opportunity to write you 
based on the instructions I received two days ago from the Senate Committee on Contract 
Payments / Foreign Debts to submit the List of payment reports / expenditures and audited 
reports of revenues. 

Among several others, I have decided to remit your contract sum following my idea that we 
can have a deal/agreement and I am going to do this legally.

                                         My conditions: 

1... 65% of the total sum only, will be paid into an account I will provide you after you have
 confirmed the transfer of your sum into your account by Draft or  telegraphic Transfer (T/T),
 confirmable in 3 working days. 

2... This deal must be kept secret forever, and all correspondence will be strictly by email /
 telephone, for security purposes. 

3... There should be no third parties as most problem associated with your fund release are 
caused by your agents or representative. 

If you AGREE with my conditions, l advise you on what to do immediately and the transfer
 will commence without delay as I will proceed to fix your name on the Payment schedule 
instantly to meet the three days mandate.

I hope you don't reject this offer and have your funds transferred. 

Waiting for your reply soon.

Yours Faithfully, 

Dr. Gary Olisa.

     In my first email I already explained the source of the fund in question and the

to how we intend this transaction to be successfully concluded.Note that
the stated fund is no longer in an offshore account.The urgency of the matter 
and the fact that the South African government was fast closing in on the funds
 made us to quickly get the funds out of the earlier mentioned offshore  account.
As at now,I havesuccessfully deposited the US$70.5 million dollars with a private
 security firm in Europe as physical cash.The money was packed into four metallic

      It is imperative that you know that my role in this transaction will

       I am looking for a third party who would stand as the beneficiary

Attention My Dear,
    This letter may be a big surprise to you, but I believe it is only a day that
people meetand become great friends and business partners. My name is
Mr.Akin Johnson, the presentbranch Manager of a bank here in Benin
Republic West Africa.
I write you this proposal in good Faith ,believing that I can trust you with
the information I'm about to reveal to you. Like I said,I have a transaction
that will benefit both of us,as your assistance is required as a foreigner.
 
I was the former head of the Accounts department in my bank's head office,
but by August 2004 I was asked to take the position of the Manager in our
branch office in Cotonou who passed on,so that was how I became the
present Manager and discovered a fortune.
As I resumed duty, I discovered an account with total sum of US $7.5 million
that has not
been operated on for sometime.
 
From my investigation,I found out that this account belongs to one Late Mr
.Alan Williamsfrom Britian, a big time Oil dealer and also a owner of candle
manifacturing companies, who unfortunately lost his life on October 20,2005
in Tanzania safari plane crash close to the western Mahale National Park,
while travelling with his entire family,his wife and other companions on a
festive visit to Katavi National Park, a largely inaccessible reserve.
I have kept a close monitoring of the account since then and nobody has
come forward to claim the money as next of kin to the late Mr.Alan Williams
meaning that no one is aware of the account.I cannot directly take out this
money without the help of a foreigner and that is why I am contacting you
for an assistance to claim the funds and share it with me.
As the Manager of my branch where the account is operated,
I have the
power to influence the release of the funds to any foreigner that comes up
as the next of kin to the account,with the correct information concerning the
account, which I shall give you. I am seeking your co-operation to present
you as the next of kin to the account. There is practically no risk involved,
the transaction will be executed under a legitimate arrangement that will
protect you and i from any breach of law.
If you accept to work with me,I wish to let you know that we can go into this
transaction on the percentage ratio of 50/50% for your assistance,so that
bothparties will be satisfied.
 
Please Contact me as soon as you receive this message if you feel we can work
together,so as to give you more details. Thanking you in advance and may the
almighty God bless you. Please treat this transaction with utmost confidentiality.
you can send me mail on my private Email Address

Expecting your urgent response.

BANK OF AMERICA (ASIA)LTD.
17/F DEVCON HOUSE

HONG KONG.

Dear Friend,

I am Mr.Graham R.Layton, credit officer of Bank of
America (Asia) Ltd, Hong Kong. I am an Australian by
nationality working with the Bank of America Asian
Branch.

I  have an urgent and  very confidential business
proposition for you.

On october 6, 2001, an American Engineer/Consultant
with  the Chinese Solid  Minerals Corporation,
Mr. Mathew Paxton made a (Fixed) Deposit for twelve
calendar months, valued at US$40,500,000.00 (Forty
Million  Five Hundred thousand United State 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  Hong Kong Solid Minerals
Corporation that Mr. Mathew Paxton died from a
recurrent heart disease.

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. Mathew Paxton did not declare any next of
kin or relations in all his  official documents,
including his Bank Deposit paperwork in my Bank.

This sum of US$40,500,000.00 is still lingering in my
Bank and the interest is being rolled over with the
principal sum at the end of each year. No one will
ever come forward to claim it.

According to the Hong Kong Law,under china's foreign
and defense affairs,at the expiration of 5 (five)
years,such funds will revert to the ownership of the
chinese Government for financing military
operations,such as purchasing of arms and ammunitions
for the military.

In order to avert this negative development,i will
like to seek for your permission as a foreigner to
stand as the next of kin to Mr. Mathew Paxton so that
the fruits of this old man's labor will not be use for
financing weapons which will further enhance the
courses of war in the world in general.

The money will be paid into your account for us to
share in the ratio of 60% for me and 30% for you and
10% for Expenses Incurred in the course of the
transaction.There is no risk at all as all the
paperwork  for this project will be done by my
attorney and with my position as the credit officer
guarantees the successful execution of this project.
If you are interested,please reply immediately.

Upon your response, I shall then provide you with more
details and that will help you understand the
transaction.

You should observe utmost confidentiality,and rest
assured  that this  project would be most profitable
for both parties because I shall require your
assistance to invest my share in your country.

Awaiting your urgent reply.

Thanks and regards.

 REQUEST FOR URGENT BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP

First, I must solicit your confidence in this transaction which is of
mutual benefit; this is by virtue of its nature of being utterly
confidential. I am sure and have confidence in your ability, and
reliability to prosecute a transaction of this great

magnitude.

I am Euan Preston, a legal practitioner with offices in Moscow and London.
My clients include some high profile and controversial world citizens
which include the just widowed wife of the former Yugoslav president
Slobadan Milosevic, Mirjana. As soon as the death of her husband was made
known to her last Saturday, 11th March 2006, she immediately notified me
of some funds she had put away in a private bank in the United Kingdom
which she wanted transferred to the accounts of someone who has no known
ties or links whatsoever with the Milosevic family, hence the reason for
my contacting you through this medium and at this point in time.

The funds are to remain with this individual (you) on trust for a minimum
of 12 months after which tensions would have died down, before
arrangements would be made for investment partnership between the
custodian of the funds (you) and the family.

The funds in question is in excess of £10,000,000 (Ten Million British
Pounds) and they are willing to give the will-be custodian of this funds
10% as retainer/commission for the safe-keeping of this funds for the next
12 months, after which, there would be further negotiation on terms and
conditions for the second phase of the project which would be the
investment of these funds.

Please note that this transaction is 100% safe, and risk free, and the
whole process will take between 7 to 10 working days from the date of

There are thousands of scam out there on the internet. This one is a version of the African
relative sacam, but with a twist: help me - I've fallen in a refugee camp and I can't get up
(with my stollen money.)

Hey look - the idiot responds!

You're Welcome! Hope you took a look at www.libertywatchradio.com/scams .

People who steal for a living usually get what's coming to them. I just want to assist
the process.Surprises me that Yahoo hasn't caught up with you yet, either. What
goes around, comes around, as the old saying goes. Kinda hard to get away from
that "sewing and reaping thing," huh?

Did you ever think of trying to do something honest for a living? It seems with all
the energy you put into scams, you could put that bright light to use on something
more lasting.

Dear ,
 
Thank you for prompt response towards my cry for your help. I just want you to
assist me reterivemy fund from the security company and secure it in your country
for investment. The money can be invested in your company or to any good investment
in your country under your care and management, the amount involve is $7,000,000,00.
I am 22 years of age the only son of myfamily and I dont know anything about investment
that's why I contacted for an assistance.I am really in distress situation since after the
death of my family.
 
I am hidding in Senegal under refugee camp because of fears of the people that killed my 
family I witnessed how my family was killed in my country, I made up my mind to fly out
of Africa so that I can start a new life with this funds my late father left behind. I thought it
wise to search for a foreign partner who can admit to help me transfer this funds into his
country on my behalf so that I can easily move out of Africa safetly and never to come back.
I  intentionally moved into the refugee camp to stay so that people will not notice whom I am.
The refugee camp is free for all in this country and I see it safe and costless for me to hide till
I rectify issues with you.One thing I have come to realise about life is that it takes one day
to know someone, I trust in God, he lead us through our way to senegal therefore I beleive
that he will not lead us to someone that will ruin our life. I want to let you know that I have
intention of going back to school in your country,while you shall manage any viable
business you introduce me.
 
I want you to assure me that you are not going to betray the kind of trust I am reposing in
you when this fund gets to your care, secondly you should know that this matter is strickly
meant to be discussed between the ears of both of us. No amount of happiness or excitement
should make you loss control to tell anybody about this money for now untill we finally secure
this funds into your care. I am saying this for the security of my life and I would like you  to
tell me more about yourself ? I want to be very sure of your abilities in keeping this kind of
sensitive financial matters secret and handle everything with utmost sincerity and maturity
without betraying me in the end.
 
Pls all I need is your assistance to retrieve our deposit from the holding company.I want to
beleive that I have written well, Permit me to stop here till I hear back from you upon receipt
of your response, I shall give you the full contact of the company where this fund is presently
deposited so that you can contact them on my behalf and also make your own verification.
I hope to hear from you soon.

Here's a fun twist. One scam artist sent me his scam letter, and I sent him to another
scam artist talking about the same stollen funds. Fun, fun, fun...
 

Paul -

    I think that you have a unique opportunity here, in that I received the letter below
from Mrs. Miriam Abach some time ago. Had you considered networking with her
to move the money?

I have cc's this to her last known address for your convenience.

CH

 

Dear sir/Madam,

 

I pray this important message meets you in peace, may blessings
of God be upon you and your family and grant you the wisdom to
understand my situations and how much I really need your assistance.

 

Before I start let me introduce myself my name is Mrs. Mariam Abacha
the wife of the late and former head of state of Nigeria general Sanni
Abacha. since the (strange and unfortunate) death of my husband
(may god's mercy be upon him), the government has turned against
my family with strange accusation. at first I thought it was a little
vendetta from my husband's enemies but I was wrong. They arrested
my only son, old enough to take care of the family and then they
froze all our bank accounts known to them, hoping that we will
starve to death. Why can't we all live in peace? Since I can't do
anything in my position here, this is where you come in. I am
presently in distress and under house arrest while my son
Mohammed is under going trial in Lagos and Abuja though
he has just been recently granted bail under the condition
that my family refunds to the Federal Government some
amount of money.

 

Refer to this websites about my husband and you will
understand what I mean,

To save the family from total bankruptcy I have managed to ship
through an undercover courier company, the sum of US$28.6m.
kept by my late husband.The money was disguised to beat the
Nigerian Security and it is currently deposited in a security
company which I will disclose the name and contacts to you
if I get a positive response from you. I want you to receive
the money and pay into your account for the family safely.

 

When you reply please leave your contact details, my personal
assistant and friend DR. Dr  Ahmed S. Galadima  will speak to
you. He will relate all your messages to me, and if you wish to
talk to me just tell him and he will make all the necessary
arrangement. And for your own information this money is drug
free and 100% risk free. Time is against us, so your urgent
response is needed.

Dear friend,

 I know this email will reach you as a surprise, but need not to worry as i am 
using the only secured and confidential medium available to seek for foreign 
assistance in a business. I would respectfully request that you keep the 
contents of this mail confidential and respect the integrity of the information 
you come by as a result of this mail. I am contacting you concerning a 
customer and deposit placed under our banks management 10 years ago, 
independently of my investigation and no one is informed of this communication. 
I am Mr.PAUL SHELLYMOORE from Ecobank,DakarSenegal.Branch.This 
business request may seem strange, but I crave your indulgence and pray 
you view it seriously as I am convinced that you would be capable to provide 
me with a solution to a money transfer. On 6th,june,1997, a Nigerian came 
to make a (fixed) deposit valued at US $6,500,000.00(Six Million Five Hundred 
Thousand Dollars )in  my branch to be claimed by a foreign beneficiary to be 
later named,upon maturity,we sent a routine notification to his forwarding 
address but got no reply.
 
 After three years of sending reminder with no responce,we decided to open 
an investigation,and i was the head of the panel set up for the investigation,
in the course of our investigation i finally discovered the money was Part 
of the loot the late Nigerian Ruler General Sani Abacha stole from Nigeria,
the money was deposited under a false name. you can confirm it yourself 
via the website below. 
http://www.usatoday.com/news/opinion/columnists/wickham/2002-04-19-
wickham.htm
 
 On further investigation, I found out that no one knows of the deposit not 
even his family members he died without telling any one of it.Therefore he 
did not declare any next of kin or relations in all his documents, including 
his bank deposit paperwork in my bank as the deposit was a secret one,
so i decided to keep the secret to my self as i view this as a once in a 
lifetime oportunity for me. My bank has waited for the beneficiary to come 
and make claims but no one has ever come forward,the reason is that he 
was yet to name the beneficiary before he died and i am the only one aware
 of this fact because i am the one in charge of the transaction. 

This sum of US$6,500,000.00 and the interest is being rolled over with the 
principal sum at the end of each year. No one will ever come forward to
 claim it According to my Country's law, at the expiration of 10 (TEN)
years, the money will revert to the ownership of the SENEGALESE 
Government if nobody  applies to claim the fund. Consequently, my 
proposal is that I will like you as a foreigner to  stand as the beneficiary 
to the deposit so that the money will not get into the hands of some 
corrupt Government officials. I assure you that I could have the deposit 
released to you in a few days.  I will simply inform our bank of the final 
closing of the file relating to the deposit.This is simple,upon your approval,
I will like you to provide immediately your full name and address so that 
the Attorney will prepare the necessary documents and affidavits which
 will put you in place as the beneficiary. We shall employ the service of
 two attorneys for the  drafting and notarization of the WILL and obtain 
the necessary documents and letter  of probate administration in your 
favour for the transfer. Any bank account in any part of the world which 
you will provide will  then facilitate the transfer of this money to you as 
the beneficiary.

 The money will be paid into your account for us to share in ratio of 35%
 for me, 35% for you, 20% for any charity organization of our choice and 10%
 will be set aside for expenses  incured during the business.  There is no
 risk at all;i have waited eigth (8) years now to be very sure of this plan, the
 paperwork for this transaction will be done by the attorney and my position 
as the Branch Manager guarantees the successful execution of this transaction.

HUNDRED THOUSAND USD DOLLARS) in account that belongs to one of our foreign
customers Late Mr. Mark Cooper an American who unfortunately lost his life in the
plane crash of Alaska Airlines Flight 261 which crashed on January 31 2000, ncluding
his wife and only daughter. if I do not remit this money out urgently it would be forfeited
for nothing. You shall read more about the crash on visiting this site.

I am contacting you as a foreigner because this money cannot be approved to a
local bank here, but can only be approved to any foreign account because the money
is in US Dollars and the former owner of the account was a foreigner too. I know that

will sign an agreement, but be sured that it is real and a genuine business.itis 100%

This secret he revealed to me when he was alive because I pestered him

Dear Sir/Madam,
It is my pleasure to reach you after our unsuccessful attempt on our business transaction. 
Well, I just want to use this medium to thank you very much for your earlier assistance to 
help me in receiving the funds, without any positive outcome.
 
I am obliged to inform you that I have succeeded in receiving the funds with the help of a 
new partner from Paraguay Mr. Fernando Alvaro Gomez. Everything was perfectly done 
because we strike a deal with one of the Lady Accountant who works with the Federal 
Ministry of Finance (FMF), and she rendered a tremendous help to us. My new partner 
initiated this idea and everything worked out successfully.
 
In appreciation of your earlier assistance to me in receiving the funds, I have decided to 
compensate you with the sum of $850,000.00 eight Hundred and Fifty Thousand 
United States Dollars) in a Cashier's cheque. This is from my own share. I did this 
simply to show appreciation to you for your kind support and assistance even though 
we could not succeed due to some unforseen circumstances and reason.
 
Presently, I am in Paraguay for investment project with my own share under the advice of 
my partner. Meanwhile, I didn't forget your past efforts and attempts to assist me in transferring 
this funds despite the fact that we could not succeed. I will be sending you e-mail from time to
 time to know if you have received your share or not.
 
In the light of the above, you are therefore, to contact my personal assistant Mrjohn baha on
 my former telephone line and do send him your contact address where you want the cheque
 to be sent to you. His e-mail address: john baha@yahoo.com
 
Please do let me know immediately you receive it so that we can share the joy together after 
all the suffering at that time. In the moment, I am very busy here in Asuncion the capital city 
of Paraguay because of the investment projects, which the new partner and I are having at 
hand. So feel free to get in touch with him to send the cheque to you without any delay.
 
With My Best Regards,
BarristerTom Adams
