augustino eyadema wrote: Dear ___________, This letter might come to you as a surprise since we have not known ourselves before. My name is Augustino Gnassingbe Eyadema, the 4th son of late president Gnassingbe Eyadema of Togo. I hope you are aware that our father died a few weeks ago and our elder brother Faure Gnassingbe in collaboration with some military officers took over power from the speaker of the parliament contrary to the provision of the constitution. There was a world wide condemnation of this action and even the Ecowas countries, international community refused to accept it and threatened to sanction our country. My self and my mother stood against our eldest son and he decided to eliminate me and my mother since he has a different mother from mine. Security reports came to us right on time and I and my mother escaped to our neighbouring country of Benin Republic to save our lives. This is where we are at the moment and we want you to come to our rescue by helping us to relocate either to your country or any other country of your choice which you deem safe for us. One of our major problems is that we have some cash money which my mother removed from my late fathers vault in the government house as soon as he died and we do not know how to take this money across to overseas for investment purposes. We would therefore want you to arrange on how to receive this money in your country. Note that we cannot pass it through a bank here because of the amount of money involved and our present condition, but we can use diplomatic method to courier the box to you if you agree to receive it, after which we will then fly to join you. The money is $8M (Eight Million United States Dollars) and we are prepared to compensate you with $3M (Three Million United States Dollars) if you can assist us in receiving and investing the money as well as relocating us. This is our plea. However, if you cannot handle this assignment please keep it secret and don't expose us but if you are prepared to help us, reply this mail and let us agree on how it will be done. There is no risk involved on your side. Presently, we don't have access to telephone but we can arrange to call you secretly when the need arises. Thank you. Augustino Gnassingbe Eyadema.

I am an accountant with the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC), Lagos and this money originated from over-invoiced contract executed for the corporation some years back.
This contract has long been completed by a foreign firm and the contractor duly paid. I now seek if you would permit the surplus to be remitted into your account. As a matter of fact, I am a top government official and I cannot come out openly to claim this amount. This is why I am looking for a competent and honest company or individual abroad whose documents will be tendered here in Nigeria as one of the contractors that executed the project.
However, I would wish to receive your personal assurance that you would not sit on the money when it goes into your account. More importantly, you keep confidential this transaction, in order not to tarnish the confidence repose in the officials involved in this transaction. To effect this transfer, I therefore request the following:
YOUR ACCOUNT NUMBER, THE NAME OF YOUR BANK WHERE THE MONEY WOULD BE TRANSFERRED INTO AND ALSO YOUR PRIVATE FAX AND TELEPHONE NUMBERS FOR QUICK COMMUNICATION.
So far, after due consultations, you were strongly and reliably recommended to me although we have not met or entered into any kind of contract with you before as to know the extent of your honesty, but based on the recommendation, I personally want to believe that you are honest enough and would not sit on the money if finally got into your account. It is on this note that I consider it proper to write you asking for your permission and support to transfer this amount into your account. You should not fear any risk because we have concluded arrangement to safe guard you in the transaction.
This business is 100% risk free. Hence it requires high level of confidence and secrecy. Meanwhile, this is the breakdown of the sharing modalities:

Dearest,
Compliments of the season
I am the manager United Bank of Egypt(UBE). in my bank I discovered an abandoned sum $33.3usd(thirty three million three hundred thousand U.S.dollars only) in an account that belongs to one of our foreign customer, by name, Mr. Bob Robert Chapman, African area director for Wycliffe bible translators international, who died along with his wife, Ruth Chapman, in January 2000 in a Kenyan plane crash in the coast of Abidjan, ivory coast.
Since we got information about his death, we have been expecting his next of kin to come over and claim his money because we can not release it unless somebody applies for it as next of kin or relation to the deceased as indicated in our banking guidelines. unfortunately I learnt that his supposed next of kin died along with him at the plane crash leaving nobody behind for the claim. it is therefore upon this discovery that I decided to make business with you and release the money to you as the next of kin or relation of the deceased for safety and subsequent disbursement since nobody is coming for it and we don't want this money to go into federal government account as unclaimed bill. the banking law and the guidelines here stipulates that if such money remained unclaimed after five years the money will be transferred into banking treasury as unclaimed fund.
The request of a foreigner as next of kin in this business is occasioned by the fact that the customer was a foreigner and an Egyptian cannot stand as next of kin for a foreigner. It is agreed that a certain percentage of this money will be for you as my foreign partner. there after I will visit your country for disbursement according to the percentage agreed.
Therefore to enable the immediate transfer of the fund to you as arranged. you must apply first to the bank as a relation or next of kin of the deceased indicating your bank account number and location wherein the money will be remitted. upon receipt of your reply I will send to you the text of the application.
As soon as you receive this letter, you should contact me through my e-mail address,maher_labib1963@123mail.cl Trusting to hear from you immediately.
Yours faithfully

Subject: trust
Hello, Do accept my sincere apologies if my mail does not meet your personal ethics.
I am, by introduction, a branch manager of one of the most reputable financial institutions here in the United Kingdom and my name is Steve Brian. One of our accounts at the headquarters with holding balance of 15,000,000(Fifteen Million British Pounds) has been dormant and has not been operated for the past 4 years. From my investigations and Confirmations, the owner of this account a foreigner by name Austin Martins died in August 2000 and since then nobody has done anything as regards the claiming of this money because he has no family members who are aware of the existence of neither the account nor the funds. Also information From the National Immigration states that he was also single on entry into the UK.
I must tell you at this junction that i was intimated of this whole affair by my bank chairman, board of directors who is a confidant and a close personal friend. He has mandated me in confidence to look out for a reliable foreign partner to deal with. We thus propose to do business with you, standing in as the next of kin of these funds from the deceased and funds will then be released to you after due processes have been followed. You will be required to provide a bank account to receive these funds. We can use your existing bank account or you may establish a fresh account for this purpose, even an empty bank account will do. Only ensure it is an account that you have full control over. I, as an insider, will guide you through all official procedure till the final remittance of the total inheritance fund into your nominated offshore account. Thereafter at the end of a successful transfer, we (the chairman, you and my humble self) will share the funds at a ratio to be discussed and agreed upon later. I am hoping that you will indeed prove trustworthy and reliable, however I intend to transfer only 5 million pounds first and when you have proved your capability in handling this, will then transfer the balance of 10 million. Note that this is legitimate as the funds do not originate from drug, money laundry, terrorism or any other illegal act, all which is required here to ensure success is commitment, sincerity and ability and willingness to handle this with utmost confidentiality.
Admittedly, transactions of this magnitude will definitely incure some financial expense, especially as the account has become dormant having been untouched since August year 2000. I have actually done a feasibility study and i am sure it will take something in the region of 35 to 50 thousand US dollars to see it thru. This will include cost of international transfer (COT) all legal charges, account reactivation fee and others. But this should not be any worry for you as i will arrange to have all expenses covered so that you do not have to spend any of your personal money upfront. All these will depend greatly on your readiness and willingness to be straightforward, sincere and reliable all thru this transaction. I am hoping that you will not disappoint me now or in the future. Note that at the end of a successful transfer of the initial 5 million pounds, i will come over to your country for my share. And also at the end of a successful transfer of the balance 10 million, i will also come over for our share and possible investment in your country.
On receipt of this mail, reach me if you are willing to do this with me, i will in turn give you further details on modalities to ensure a hitch-free transfer. And if you think you do not want to spend any of your personal money in financing this upfront, also let me know so that i will immediately arrange to have money sent to you to cover expenses. Do include your private phone numbers for more confidential discussions on your response. You may also send me some form of concrete identification like the data page of your international passport or drivers? license just to know you better. I wait to hear from you soonest. NB. I had earlier sent you this mail, but since I did not get any response from you, I decided to send it again. Sincere regards, S. Brian.

I would like that you treat this email with all seriousness until now I work with a bank in South Korea. I am the head transfer department of the bank and I am presently in charge of the government account. I have discovered that some of the account are dormant with a lot of money in the account on further investigation I found out that one particular account belong to the former president of south Koreans MR PARK CHUNG HEE, who ruled south Koreans from 1963-1979 and this particular account has a deposit of $45m with no next of kin.
Since I am the account officer and the money or the account is dormant and there is no next of kin because the past president hid the money when he was still in office. Obviously the account owner the former president of South Korean has died long time ago, leaving the money behind and nobody is claiming it because there is no next of kin.
The money that is in the deposit is $45m and this is what I would like to transfer to you for our mutual benefit. Please if this is of interest to you I will advice that you contact me through my direct email address. Please this transaction should be kept confidential. For your we shall share the money on equal basis.
Please this transaction should be kept confidential.
Your reply will be appreciated, Thank you,

Dear Friend,
I am Mr David Wood the Bank Manager of CITIBANK 332 Oxford Street, London W1N 9AA. I have urgent and very confidential business proposition for you. On June 6, 1997, an Iraqi Foreign Oil consultant/contractor with the BRITISH PETROLUEM CORPORATION Mr. HAFFEZ AL SADIQUE.

After a month, we sent a reminder and finally we discovered from his contract employers, the British petroleum corporation that Mr. HAFFEZ AL SADIQUE 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 HAFFEZ AL SADIQUE. did not declare any kin or relations in all his official documents, including his Bank Deposit paperwork in my Bank.

According to the British law at the expiration of 8 (eight) years, the money will revert to the ownership of the British Government if nobody applies to claim the fund and the eight years is the end of May 2005.
Consequently, my proposal is that i want to seek your consent as a foreigner to stand in as the owner of the money as the next of kin to the deceased so that the bank will transfer the money to your designated account. All documents and proves to enable you get this fund will be carefully worked out. I have secured from the probate an order of mandamus to locate any of the deceased beneficiaries, and more so I are assuring you that the business is risk free involvement.

If this proposal is acceptable by you, do not take undue advantage of the trust i have bestowed in you. PLEASE, APPRECIATE THE FACT THAT DOING BUSINESS OVER THE INTERNET IS RISK.ENDEAVOR TO SEND YOUR CONFIDENTIAL TELEPHONE AND FAX NUMBER IN YOUR REPLY TO THIS BUSINESS.

ATTN: SIR OR MADAM, Greetings! I know you will be surprise to read a letter from me, but please, consider this as a request from a family in dire need of assistance. I am Mrs.Mariam Daniels the wife of late Brigadier Kenneth Daniels from Angola. I am writing to you from Government Reserved Area (GRA) South Africa. I got your contact information from a business directory in Johannesburg Chambers of Commerce and Industry. And I, on behalf of my only son, Prince and two daugthers, decided to solicit for your assistance to transfer the sum of US$35.Million (Thirty Five Million United States Dollars) inherited from my late husband into your company or private bank account. Before the death of my husband, he was Brigadier in charge of Arms and ammunition procurement for the Angola Army. In his will, he specifically drew me attention to the sum of $35Million, which he had deposited in a safe box of a private Security Company in Johannesburg, South Africa. In fact, he said and I quote: My beloved wife I wish to draw your attention to the sum of uS$35.million. I deposited the said box containing the fund in a security Company in Johannesburg, South Africa. During the war, I was very dedicated and committed to winning the war against the rebels until when I found out that some senior army officers and government functionaries were busy helping themselves with government funds and properties, sending them to foreign countries. Due to this, when I and former special adviser to the President were assigned by the President (Jose Eduardo Santos) to purchase arms in South Africa, we saw this as an opportunity to divert the money for our personal use. When we divided the money, my share was US$35. Million. I did this in case of my absence due to death so that you will not suffer. You should solicit for asistance of a reliable and sincere foreign partner to assist you to transfer this money out of South Africa for investment. I deposited the box in your name and you alone with the deposit code can claim this money . Do not disappoint me. Goodbye. From this words of my late husband, you will understand that the lives and future of my family depends on this fund as such I will be grateful if you can assist us. Now what I want you to do for us as an international partner is to help us clear this sum from the Security Company using your name as the beneficiary of the fund. Please do contact me with my email address We have agreed to give you 25% of the total sum for your assistance and 5% for the expenses that might be incurred in the course of the transfer and the remaining 70% for the family's investment abroad which you will also assist us materialize. Further information and discussion about this transaction will commence as soon as you give us the assurance and confidence that this money will be safe when transferred to your account and please treat this matter with urgency. Please get back to me on this email address (mariamdan1@yahoo.ca )for security reasons. Thanks and God bless. Regards Mrs.MARIAM DANIELS (For The Family).

Meanwhile all the whole arrangement to put claim over this fund as the bonafide next of kin to the deceased and get the required approval and transfer this money to a foreign account has been put in place, all directives and needed information will be relayed to you as soon as you indicate your interest and willingness to assist us and also benefit yourself to this great business opportunity.
In fact i could have done this deal alone but because of my position in this country as a civil servant, we are not allowed to operate a foreign account and would eventually raise an eye brow on my side during the time of transfer because i work in this bank.
This is the actual reason why it will require a second party or fellow who will forward claims as the next of kin to the Bank and also present a foreign account where he will need the money to be re-transferred into on his request as it may be after due verification and clarification by the correspondent branch of the bank where the whole money will be remitted from to your own designated bank account.
May i at this point emphasize that this transaction is 100% risk free as i have made all arrangements for a successful transaction as an insider of the bank before contacting you.
On smooth conclusion of this transaction, you will be entitled to 30% of the total sum as gratification, while 10% will be set aside to take care of any expenses that may arise during the time of transfer like telephone bills, fax and our travel tickets to come over to your country for the sharing of the fund while 60% will be for me and my partners.
Please you have been advised to keep this a top secret as we are still in service and intend to retire from service after we conclude this deal with you.
I will be monitoring the whole situation here in this bank until you confirm the money in your account and ask us to come down to your country for subsequent sharing of the fund according to percentages previously indicated and further investment either inyour country or any country you will advice us to invest in.
All other necessary information will be sent to you on your acceptance to champion this transaction with me.
I suggest you get back to me as soon as possible or you contact me onmy private line 229 88 98 16 stating your wish in this deal.
Yours Faithfully, DR.PETER ADAMS alternative peter_adams12000@yahoo.fr

I am the Personal Account Manager to one Engineer BRIAN MONROE a dual National of the UNITED STATES, and of an AUSTRALIAN origin, which he disclose to me and his personal lawyer. He worked with the Ajeokuta Steel Rolling Company in Nigeria.
My client and his wife were involved in an auto accident on the 27st of May, 2003 and they both died after an unsuccessful attempt by the medical doctors to rescue their lives.
Since then, I have made several inquiries to his embassy to locate any of my client's extended relatives, but this has proved unsuccessful. Then after these several unsuccessful moves, I and his lawyer decided that we should contact you as the deceased next of kin. The issue is not whether you have the same last or surname or not, but the emphasis is just to present you by me and his lawyer as directed by a magistrate court here in Nigeria.
As his personal Account Manager,I and his lawyer have made investigations and discovered that he did not state any next of kin in all his documents with the bank. I have contacted you to assist in being the beneficiary as the next of kin to this sum of Fourteen Million Two Hundred Thousand United States Dollars(US$14.2M)which he deposited in a fixed deposit account in my Bank(STB NIG. PLC).
The fact is that the fiscal policy regulating banks in Nigeria, does not permit a fixed deposit account whose owner is dead to remain unclaimed for a period of two years. This is the reason I have to contact you in ernest before the Federal Government of Nigeria get this huge sum of money confisticated as an unclaimed fund.
There will be a mutual agreement on how the percentage sharing should be decided. But all these will happen after you must have indicated your interest to assist us by sending the following:- (1) Your full name and address (2) Your private phone and fax (3) Your bank account. You may be required to open a fresh bank account for the purpose of this transaction, if you do not intend to use your already existing one.
I assure you that, as soon as you indicate your interest to willingly assist us as the beneficiary, then I will go ahead to detail you on the role you are required to play. All I require is your honest cooperation to enable us see this deal through. I guarantee that this will be executed under a legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any breach of the law. We also intend investing a huge percentage of our share after sharing, into vaible business opportunities in your country through your assistance.
If you are interested in this transaction, please, strictly contact me on my alternative email address(chut63@yahoo.co.in),so that I could give you more details on the workings of this transaction.

FROM: MR BENEDICT GRANT 24 RIVER LANE GOVERNMENT RESERVED AREA ENUGU STATE.
ATTENTION PLEASE
COMPLIMENT OF THE SEASON
This comes to you as a sincere appeal for a business assistance. I am Mr. Benedict Grant, a staff with the computer department of Standard Trust Bank of Nigeria. I have an urgent and very confidential business proposition I will like an assistance from you. Please I pray for your patience get through my plea so that you could be able to have the true story.
On June 6, 2000, an American Mining Consultant/Contractor with the Nigeria Mining Corporation(NMC), Mr ken power made a numbered time (fixed) Deposite for twelve (12) calendar months, valued at US$14.200,000.00(FORTEEN MILLION,TWO HUNDRED THOUSAND US DOLLARS) 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 Nigerian mining corporation that Mr ken power died from an automobile accident. On further investigation, I found out that he died without making a (WILL) and all attempts to trace his next of kin was fruitless.
I therefore made further investigation and discovered that Mr ken power did not declare any kin or relation in his official documents, including his Bank deposite paper work in my Bank. This sum US$14.2000.000.00 is still sitting in my Bank and the interest is being rolled over with the principal sum at the end of each year. No one has ever come forward to claim the fund.
According to our Nigerian Law, at the expiration of 5 (five) years, the money will revertto the ownership of the Nigerian government if nobody applies to claim the funds. Consequently, my proposal is that I would like you to stand in as the next of kin to Mr ken power so that the fruits of this old man's labour will not get into the hands of some corrupt government officials.
This is simple, I will like you to provide immediately your full name and address so that an Attorney will prepare the necessary documents and affidavits which will put you in place the next of kin. We shall employ the service of an accredited Attorney for the drafting and notarization of the WILL and to obtain the necessary documents of probate/administration in your favour for the tranfer. A bank account in any part of the world which you will provide will then facilitate the tranfer of this money to you as the beneficiary/next of kin. The money will be paid into your account and we negotiate on the percentage that you will get for assisting me.
There is no risk at all as the paper work for this transaction will be done by an Attorney and my position in the sensitive division of my Bank guarantees the successful execution of this transaction. If you are interested, please reply immediately via my e-mail( I assume that channel to be private for now). Upon your response, I shall then provide with more details and relevant documents that will help you to understand the transaction.
Please observe utmost confidentiality, and rest assured that this transaction would be most profitable for both of us and I shall require your assistance to invest my share in your country. Accepting this offer as a partner in this business demands that this information be strictly be known only to you. It is an obligation you have to keep.
Thanking you for your time.
Awaiting your urgent reply through my private e-mail: nair_7c@ yahoo.com And importantly, in the event that you could not be able to assist, please do not hesitate to contact me so as to know whether to look for another partner or not.
Best regards,

ATTENTION,PLS
My name is Miss. Nancy Kone, the daughter of Mr. Kabourg Kone of Zimbabwe. It might be a surprise to you where I got your contact address; I got it from the internet when i was searching for a honest person. Don't be worried because I am contacting you in good faith.
During the crisis against the farmers of Zimbabwe by the supporters of our President Robert Mugabe to claim all the white owned farms in our country, he ordered all the white farmers to surrender their farms to his party members and their followers. My father was one of the best farmers in the country and knowing that he did not support the President political ideology, the president supporters invaded my father's farm and burnt down everything, killed him and confiscated all his investments.
Before this unpleasant incident, my mother and my father had already visited Cote D'ivoire (Abidjan) to deposit the sum of Five Million, United States Dollars ($5.M) in the safe vault of a Security company here in Abidjan. This action was taken because My father felt the growing tension on the farm issue but I guess he never anticipated the tragedy that brought his brutal and sudden death.
At the time of deposition, the real content was not disclosed to the security officials; instead, it was deposited as Family Valuables? Valued for the real content in the consignment.
After the bloody incident, we all had to escape out of our country for the safety of our lives. We seek refuge in Abidjan and we were permitted to reside here as Political Refugees under section (5.9).
Because of our present and unpleasant status, my mother and I are seriously looking forward to having an overseas partner that will assist us with the convenient and legal transfer of the funds out of Abidjan. If my proposition is considered, for assisting us to transfer this money to your country, we will offer you 20%of the total fund, and 5% of the total will be set aside to cover any expenses incurred during this transaction. 75%will be for my family to buy shares in your company or investing in your country under your supervision. I would appreciate confidentiality and honesty in our correspondence. Your immediate response will be highly welcomed. I wait urgent reply God bless you. Nancy Kone. for family.

Greetings, I am Prince Fayad W. Bolkiah, the eldest son of Prince Jefri Bolkiah,former Finance Minister of Brunei, the tiny oil-rich sultanate on the northern coast of the island of Borneo in eastern Asia.I will save your time by not amplifying my extended royal family history,which has already been disseminated by the international media during the controversial dispute that erupted between my father and his step brother,the sultan of Brunei Sheik Muda Hassanal Bolkiah.
As you may know from the international media,the sultan had accused my father of financial mismanagement and impropriety of US$14.8 Billion dollars. This was as a result of the Asian financial crisis that made my father company Amedeo Development Company and government owned Brunei Investment Company to be declared bankrupt during his tenure in office.However my father was kept under house arrest, his bank accounts and private properties including a crude oil export refinery were later confiscated by the sultanate.
Furthermore, during this unfortunate period i was advised to evacuate my immediate family outside the sultanate to avoid further prosecution from the sultan and his security operatives, but before I could do that I was placed under house arrest by the Sultan and i have no access to a phone but I have a Palm V hand-held computer from which I am sending you this mail.Before my Incaceration, I went ahead to dispatch the sum of Fifty Eight Million Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars US$58.5 Million in cash under special arrangement into the custody of a Private security and Trustee company for safe keeping abroad.
Hence I seek your good assistance to invest these funds into profitable investment in your country to facilitate future survival for my family abroad.I have decided to offer 10% of these funds to you as compensation for your strong cooperation.
Please I count on your absolute confidentiality,transparency and trust while looking forward to your prompt reply towards a swift conclusion of this business transaction.
I remain yours sincerely.

PRIVATE AND CONFIDENTIAL
Good DAY,
Forgive me if this letter comes to you as a surprise due to the fact that we do not know each other in person. I got your address from the South African Chambers of Commerce through a reliable source I am KENNETH MAMBA TAYLOR. the younger brother of to the Ex. President of LIBERIA CHARLES TAYLOR, the Ex. president TAYLOR is being step down as the president of Liberia. He has resigned and seek asylum in Nigeria country due to pressures mounted on him by the international community especially the UNITED STATE OF AMERICA. MyBrother has resign as president in or peace a chance in our country Liberia. CHARLES TAYLOR has been a freedom fighter that fought all his life for the well being of Liberians. But due to the multi tribal nature of our country, REBELS From the enemy tribes have fought the ruling overnment of CHARLES TAYLOR, to the point where it has become impossible to maintain peace and tranquility.
Presently we want to have some more time to elocate our wealth from Liberia to other foreign countries, where we can secretly invest our wealth profitably and peacefully. As of now, the president is now in NIGERIA where he is on asylum, the rest of our family including my three brothers and wife and children have left Liberia to seek refuge in foreign countries where they can have security and peace of mind. I am currently living in South Africa where I am living in asylum as a political refugee. This is why I am writing you. On my arrival to South Africa, I come with the sum of $USD10, 000.000 (TEN MILLION UNITED STATES DOLLARS). This money was given to me by Ex. PRESIDENT TAYLOR to buy military arms and ammunitions from South African allies. These ammunitions were meant to be used to curtail the insurgence of rebel forces into the capital city of Monrovia. Ex. president Taylor therefore instructed me to find a reliable partner that will assist me to transfer this money to a foreign account for my personal use. Currently the money is deposited in a private security company here in South Africa as classified consignment. And the security company does not know the real contents of this consignment. I simply deposited the money as diplomatic valuables to avoid the security company from interfering with the money. I shall want you to help me transfer this money overseas. I will appreciate if you can provide me with a bank account in a stable bank where we can transfer this money. I shall also want you to assist me in investing this money in any profitable venture for the future of my family. I am fed up of the disorganization and political instability of this CONTINENT thus I shall want to relocate my fund and my family to an oversea country where peace, security, political stability as well as financial consistency are all guaranteed. You will be given a commission for your assistance and other details of this transactions will be discussed when I receive your reply indicating your interest and readiness to assist me.
I must also assure you that this transaction is totally legal and bears no risk whatsoever now or in the future. I have all the documents covering this money which I can send you if you desire. My family friends in the government and banking sectors here in South Africa will also help to make this transfer successful within the shortest time in the most legal way. They have assured me of their support. ALL I ASK FROM YOU ARE TRUST AND CONFIDENTIALITY. You are therefore to contact me immediately with the contact details provided above to discuss further details regarding this transaction. Thanks as I look forward to immediate response.
Yours Sincerely, KENNETH MAMBA .T.

Dear Friend, I am Mr.Maxwell Ibom, Accountant Union Bank Nigeria Plc, Lagos- Nigeria.I have urgent and very confidential business proposition for you. On June 6, 2000,a Foreign Oil consultant/contractor with the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation, Mr. Barry Norman made a numbered time (Fixed) Deposit for twelve calendar months, valued at US$5,500,000.00, (Five Million,five hundred thousand United States Dollars) 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 Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation that Mr.Barry Norman died from the occurance of the Tsunami Earth Quake in Indonesia. 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.Barry Norman did not declare any next of kin or relations in all his official documents, including his Bank Deposit paperwork in my Bank. No one will ever come forward to claim it. According to Nigerian Law, at the expiration of 3 (Three) years, the money will revert to the ownership of the Nigerian Government if nobody applies to claim the fund. Consequently, my proposal is that I will like you as a Foreigner to stand in as next of kin to late Mr. Barry Norman. I am writing you because I as a public servant cannot operate a foreign account or have an account that is more than $1m. All these are to make sure that the fruits of this old man's labour will not get into the hands of some corrupt government officials. This is simple.The money will be moved out for us to share in the ratio of 50% for me and 50% for you. I assure you that it is 100% risk free. Please observe utmost confidentiality, and be rest assured that this transaction would be most profitable for both of us because I shall require your assistance to invest my share in your country Awaiting your urgent reply.

Dear Friend, I am writting this letter out of a genuine desperation to find a reliable partner in the unfolding partnership over a transaction so profitable and simple. I seek your help, attention and honest co-operation to our mutual benefit and I WANT TO BELIEVE that you will not let down the trust and confidence I am about to repose on you.
My name is John chisar 35 year old bussinessman. For the past ten years, I have been working in a Public Relations firm that pays me about two hundred dollars each month. On the 30th of june 2002,our company made a very big financial breakthrough when we made contact with Alhaji Daudu Dansuki (XI) and began to supply him his cow medicines. Alhaji Daudu Dansuki (XI) is the President of DASUKI AGRO ALLIED FARMS, a millionaire farmer with cattle farms in Mali, Senegal, Guinea,Burkina Faso, Chad Rep, and a new one located at Zimbabwe.
Moreover, he is the greatest supplier of cattle beef and other dairy products to the whole of West Africa.He had informed us about the huge amount of money he spends on the purchase of a particular but very important cattle medicine. Precisely, he buys US $5,000 per carton. He asked if our organisation can source for a cheaper supplier.We did market research and discovered that we can buy these medicine in Europe for US$2,000 per carton. We moved a proposal to DASUKI AGRO ALLIED FARMS, to supply him at US$4,800 per carton which he accepted.
As these supplies progressed and our company was doing fine, I requested to my boss for an increase in salary. He was so upset that he nearly sacked me despite my ten years of dedicated service. However, he succeeded in giving me an indefinite suspension.
Within my moments of suspension, I was so desperate that I went to the Dasuki Farms and infomed Alhaji Daudu Dansuki, that I have a foriegn contact that will be willing to supply him this same products at US$4,400 per carton. He in turn confided to me that he is about to place order for one thousand cartons following a suspected outbreak of disease in his farms. I assured him that my foriegn contact will be in the position to manufacture and supply to him, infact I convinced him that my former boss usually buy from my foriegn contact and that is why he sales to him at a higher price. HOWEVER, I INFORMED ALHAJI DAUDU THAT HE WILL HAVE TO PAY CASH IN ADVANCE BEFORE MY FORIEGN CONTACT WILL SUPPLY TO HIM. For the moment he has stopped all contact with my boss. Please consider on how to handle this profitable project and kindly contact me immediately through my yahoo email or my other mail, johnchisar3@yahoo.com for details and negotiations as regards terms and commission. However, I will insist that my commission will be 20% of the total profit.
Note: We will buy one thousand carton at US$2,000,000. We sell to them at US$4,400,000.Our client pays cash before the lifting of the goods. Most importantly: they must NEVER know our purchase point in Europe.Ponder on this profitable venture, my good friend.
Thanks and God bless you.
Sincerely,

Dear Friend,
I sincerely write to seek your co-operation and trusts to enable me carry out an urgent business opportunity in my department. I work with the Inland Bank Nigeria Plc; currently I am the Senior Manager of Bills and Exchange of my bank. I was the account officer to one Mr. Thompson Thorn who used work with Chevron/Texaco Nigeria limited, here in Nigeria. On the 27th of January 2002, my customer, his wife and their three children were involved in Ikeja bomb blast here in my country. My customer and his family unfortunately lost there lives. Since then I have made several enquiries to locate any of my customer extended relatives, this has also proved unsuccessful. After these several unsuccessful attempts, I decided and do some research in the internet, to locate any member of his family but all to no avail. He left in his domiciliary account the total sum of Fifteen Million United States Dollars {$15million}. Unfortunately from the day of his death till the time of this letter none of his relation or friends have come up for the claim. On this discovery, I decided do business with you and release the money to you as the next of kin to Mr. Thompson Thorn for safety and subsequent disbursement.
I personally do not want this fund to be transferred into the bank treasury as unclaimed bill. That is why I wanted the fund to be move out of the bank before I proceed on my retirement from the banking services by next year. The need for a foreigner as next of kin in this project is occasioned by the fact that the customer Mr. Thompson Thorn was a foreigner and a Nigerian cannot stand as his next of kin or heir.
I have agreed that 30% of the fund would be for you as foreign partner; thereafter I will visit your country for disbursement according to the percentages indicated. To enable the immediate transfer of the fund into your nominated account, you will first apply to the bank as the next of kin of the deceased, indicating your bank account number and location wherein the money will be remitted. Upon receipt of your acknowledgement indicating your interest, I will send to you the text of the application that you will send to the Inland Bank Nigeria plc authority for an approval to submit your claims.
Send your reply through my email and indicates your direct fax and telephone numbers for effective communication that this transaction needs.
Looking forward to urgently hearing from you on my below private email address: allwellugwu@tsamail.co.za
Yours Faithfully,

millerwimiller@yahoo.co.uk
Dear:Sir/Madam,
You may be surprised to receive this letter since you do not know me personally, but for the introduction, I am Mrs, MONICA WILLIAMS the wife of ENG.WILLIAMS KHUMALO, who was recently murdered in the land dispute in Zimbabwe. I got your contact through the South African Information Exchange (S.A.I.E) here in South Africa and I decided to write for your assistance.
My late husband was among the few black Zimbabwean well-to-do farmers murdered in cold blood by supporters and agents of the ruling government of president Robert Mugabe for their alleged support and sympathy for the Zimbabwean opposition party controlled and sponsored by the whites minority.
Before his death, he had took me to Johannesburg to deposit the sum of US$ 25.5 Million Dollars(TWENTY FIVE MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND UNITED STATE DOLLARS)with a security and finance company as if he knew the looming Danger about to happen in Zimbabwe.
The money was deposited in a box as treasures With security company to avoid the possibility of knowing that it was money and has an insured cover.This money was earmarked for the purchase of machinerys and chemicals for his farms and the establishment of new farms in neighboring countries Malawi and Mozambique.
The land problem arose when President Robert Mugabe introduced a new land Reform Act that wholly affects all the well-to-do farmers most of them are whites and Some few blacks vehemently condemned the system adopted by the government that resulted to rampant killing and mob actions by the war veterans some political supporters which hundred of people been killed. However, heads of government from the western world especially the Britain and the United States of America have voiced their condemnation of mugabe,s plans.consequently upon this,the Southern African Development Community (S.A.D.C)has continuously supported Mugabe`s new land reforms Acts.
It is against the back ground that I and my family who are currently residing in the Republic of South Africa have decided to transfer this amount out of South Africa into a foreign bank account.
As a widow, I am confronted with the responsibility of seeking a reliable and honest person or persons with genuine foreign bank account where this money could be transferred into without much taxation and problem of being defrauded. I am faced with the problem of investing this amount of money in the South Africa because my country and South Africa have almost the same political history. Moreso, the South African foreign policy on political asylums does not allow such investment since I am residing under such status(asylum seeker.)As a businessman whom I am going to entrust my future and that of my family in his hands,I must let you know that this transaction is 100% risk free.
Therefore, if you accept to assist my family,and me, we are willing to offer you 25% of the total sum for your assistance, 70% will be for my family while 5% will be used for all expenses. If this proposal is accepted by you, Do contact my son MILLER WILLIAMS on his private email address:millerwimiller@yahoo.co.uk or on our family phone number +27-83-550-5429 as confidentiality of this transaction cannot be over emphasized.To enable him detail you the next step to follow in bringing this transaction to a successful conclusion.
Kindly, send your phone number and fax number for easier communication and to maintain the secrecy and confidentiality of this transaction.

Dear Sir,
This letter will really come to you as a big surprise; Meanwhile I got your contact here in Cotonou-Benin from a woman staff of chamber of commerce cyber library attendant on my search for a reliable and trustwhorty person like you, though I did not desclose my purpose of seeking for the contact.
We are alive today with the slit strike of luck and by the grace of God. We lost every thing before coming to the refugee camp, where we are presently staying in Cotonou Ripublique Du Benin. I choose you after praying to God Almighty for assistance. I have not met with you before and you have not seen me too, but I must beg for your assistance since this is our last hope for you to stand for us as our late father's foreign business partner and beneficiary for me and my sister to our late fathers funds deposited with a Security Company here in Cotonou, Republique du Benin for safe keeping, Before his death in the hands of the rebels in our Country Congo, the rebel slaughtered our beloved father and mother without mercy.
Our father was the former Director General Congolais National Petroleum Cooperation, he got this money, and he deposited it in a Vault of a Security Company for safe keeping in Cotonou Benin, before his death. The reason we solicit for your help is that the Security Company can only release this consignment to anybody whom I Identify as my late fathers foreign business partner, who will help us to manage the fund, this is my late fathers Agreement with the Security Company at the time of deposit, With our present situation in Cotonou-Benin, I really beg you to stand for me and my sister as our late fathers foreign business partner to come and claim the consignment as the new beneficiary.
Please come to our rescue because we are traped that we can not travel outside Africa, they seized our traveling documents, this is most reason we solicit for your help. Again I must make it known to you that the security company did not know the real content of the consignment because my late father did not declear it to them as money rather he decleared it to them as a photographic equipments that belongs to his foreign business partner that is you for security of the fund. Please help us we are surffering too much here in refugee camp, no father, no mother, no food, no medical care, no relation, no money to feed, the most painful thing is that my only younger sister is seriously down with sickness and there is no good medical attention given to her since then.
The amount involved is ($25,000.000.00 USD) (Twenty five Million US Dollar).
Please if you have human symperty for orphans and you want to help us, please I would appreciate it better if you can drop your full name and address, your private phone and fax number, which I can always reach you. I really want you to assist us because we dont know anything about international business investment so that both of us can work as business partners in claiming this consignment from the security company for investment at your country.
As soon as you accepted to work with me for mutual benefit of all and your share on this transaction will be 10% of the total sum, Note also there is no risk to it.
Should I be expecting your positive, and urgent Responses. Yours Loving Once,
Alex Mbali

To: raila4odinga2005@netscape.net Subject: RE GOOD DAY.
From the desk of: Raila Odinga Road & Public Works Minisitry (Nairobi - Kenya) Date: 29th, March. 2005
Dear Sir/Madan
Re: Confidential Business Transaction
I am Raila Odinga, the present Minister of Road and Public Works of Federal Rebuplic of Kenya. Your dossier was obtained from Kenya/America Chambers of Commerce in quest for a trustworthy individual/company for a confidential business transaction.
Since I was appointed a Mininster in the above mentioned Ministry, I have accumulated the total sum of US$6.5M (Six Million, Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars only) from over-invoiced awarded contracts by the Mininstry, which is now deposited in my private account in Europe. Be informed that my account details will be provided to you upon the confirmation of your preparedness, which you can as well verify online.
However, Mwai Kikaki, the President of Kenya has ordered an inquiry into corruption as a graft scandal engulfs his Government. Therefore, I am soliciting your assistance for the transfer of this fund from my present account to your account, pending my retirement.
The reason for the above is that the code of conduct bureau in my country does not allows a civil servant to operate a foreign based account or own any large capital investment. Be reminded that an account with zero credit balance can serve the purpose of this transaction.
Furthermore, to show my preparedness to work with you, I have earmarked 15% of the total sum for you since you are providing the coverage for the funds; while the remaining 85% shall be for me since I shall bear the costs of all expenditures until the fund in question finally gets into your account.
For the security of this transaction, I want all communication regarding this transaction to be between you and my personal assistant Mr. Bernardo Casillas , who is currently in London,United Kingdom, and his contact numbers are as stated below:
Tel: 044-704-010-8684 Fax: 044-704-301-7039
Thank you for your anticipated cooperation while awaiting your urgent response.
Yours Faithfully,
Raila Odinga (Minister of RPWM)
