From Henry Davis

ATTN:

I have a proposal to make, that might be of interest
to you. I am in possession of a large sum of money in
cash. (US$37,000,000.00 ? Thirty Seven Million US
Dollars).
The money was inherited from my late father who was
the
Chairman of the Sierra Leone Gold Mining Corporation
during the Sierra Leonian War when Major Johnny Paul
Koromah was the country's president.

The money is of no criminal origin as it was largely
realized from black market sale of alluvial gold dust
during the war.

The money has been lodged at a Security Company in
Abidjan, Cote d'Ivoire (Ivory Coast). I now want to
move this money abroad and invest it in profitable
ventures, as the time is now ripe for such move.

WHAT I ASK YOU TO DO:
1.Firstly to assist me to export this money to any
stable country abroad.
2. To assist me invest the money in profitable
ventures in your country or any other suitable country
where you have good connections.

3. To help me re-locate my family to the suggested
country.
4. To manage the money in a profitable manner
preferably a joint venture deal with your company.
The procedure for relocation of the funds to your
country is such that you will not run any risk.
Basically, we will establish an Investment Account in
a local bank in Cote d'Ivoire affiliated to the
African Development Bank. We will withdraw the money
from the security company and put the money in the
local Account and funnel it through this Account to
your overseas account.
We will have proper banking trails to show the money
as
an investment fund.

For your assistance you will get 15% of the total
amount.
Upon your request, I will give you further details of
the plans and tell you more about my self but you must
treat as highly confidential for my security.

Sincere regards,

Henry Davis


And this one is a classic:

Dear Friend,
I am Rev. James Morgan 65 years old citizen of Florida. Presently, i am a catholic Archbishop in South Africa.

Ever since, i have been helping the Orphans in the Orphanage/Motherless homes across some few Africa countries. I have donated some money to Orphanage in Sudan, Mozambique, South Africa, and Liberia with the little God has given me.
But it is sad to let you know that, i became ill recently from Cancer of the liver. Before i got ill, i had sent some money amounting to Four Million Two Hundred Thousand US Dollars ($4.2M) to a security and financial company in Northern America (CANADA) the fund is safe. I have been using the company for over Ten years now.
I am presently in the hospital with little hope of survival. Please if you can stand as my Next of Kin to this funds, kindly reply me along with your details:
Name:
Address:
Tel:
to enable me forward a letter of nominee to the said security company where the funds is been kept for further disbursement. so that i can make you my next of Kin and furnish you with more details on how the funds will be claimed by you from the financial company.Thereafter, i will also give you instruction on how the funds will be distributed among the Orphanage homes in Florida Where I come from.
In return, i am offering you 15% of the total sum ($4.2M), while extra 5% shall be set aside for all expenses incured by you during the process of claim.
My Lord has already told me that, i will find a trustworthy person who can carry out this soul surviving transaction. May the Almighty God bless and protect your family. Thank you, Rev. James Morgan.

Well now least I know it was a big scam anyhow. Phew I didn't think many people had that bad a time spelling.

Here's one i got in today!



Dear Friend,

I hope my letter does not cause you too much embarrassment as I write to you in good faith. I know that my letter will be a surprise to you, as we are both complete strangers. I am Mr Tajudeen Afolabi Adeola, an Executive Director with Commercial Bank of Africa . I am writing in respect of a foreign customer of my bank with account number 011-428-07192214/cba/cf who perished in a plane crash Korean Air Flight 801] with some passengers aboard on August 6, 1997. See details of the aircrash: (http://ns.gov.gu/guam/).

After the death of this customer, we have made several enquiries to your embassy to locate any of my clients extended relatives, this has also proved unsuccessful. After these several unsuccessful attempts, I also personally watched with keen interest to see the next of kin but all has proved abortive as no one has come to claim his funds of US$7.2M,[Seven million Two hundred thousand united states dollars] which has been with my branch for a very long time. On this note, I decided to seek for whom his name shall be used as the next of kin as no one has come up to be the next of kin. And the banking ethics here does not allow such money to stay more than Seven years, the money will be recalled to the bank treasury as unclaimed and subsequently forfieted after this period. In view of this I got your contact through your country's directory after realizing that your country is similar to the deceased.I will give you 20% of the total.

Upon the receipt of your response, I will send you by fax or e-mail the application, bank's fax number and the next step to take. I will not fail to bring to your notice that this business is hitch free and that you should not entertain any fear as all modalities for fund transfer can be finalized within eight banking days, after you apply to the bank as a relation to the deceased. I guarantee that this will be executed under a legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any breach of the law.

When you receive this letter. Kindly send me an e-mail, signifying your decision, including your private Tel/Fax numbers for quick communication.

Yours Faithfully,

Mr Tajudeen Afolabi Adeola.
Executive Director
Commercial Bank of Africa.

 

[The BoidSmith]

Every time I get one of those scams I reply asking them to send money so I can open their account over here. They always cease communicating immediately after that...

 

[Cruciform]

Report Internet fraud in the US here:
http://www.ifccfbi.gov/cf1.asp

If you get mail from one of these idiots and they say they're sending an "associate" with a cashiers cheque, arrange to meet in a public place. Bring a camera and snap off a pic of said associate. Dodge the meeting if you want.

A good pic could lead back to the scammers quickly in the right hands.

 

[Glenn Bartley]

I almost cannot wait util the next one of these that I receive...

Ya know Glenn,

After reading through some of the fiascos that EBOLA strung those guys along on, I'm waiting on my next scam mail too LOL. > -Eric Lago *MS Reptilian Hobbyists*

First thing you should have done was put it in a plastic bag, without touching it with your bare skin, then give it to the feds.

Might be useful fingerprints on it.

(MY REPLY)
She is still available. I just shipped her "sister" out this morning to a
customer in Florida. Her sister was a larger, and prettier.
Therefore, I will offer this one for $600 shipped (I sold her sister for
$650 shipped).

"IMAG0020" is the female het for sale.
"malealbino1" is one of her male siblings
"goodmonsterpic" is her other male sibling
"Tina1" is the Dam that produced her (her first clutch)

I wanted you to see the pics of her siblings so that you understand that
she has the genetics to produce nice albinos. And the pics do not do these
albinos justice, they are outstanding (I'm quite proud, actually). I still
have "malealbino1" for sale now... whoever gets him will be very pleased.
Notice that the saddles on this female are very dark... virtually black...
this is a trait of a "high contrast" het albino. I don't like that term,
but she fits the bill.

Please search for my name "mariasman" or "Mark Goodson" on the BOI. I
don't have much of a reputation yet, but it is very good. And please leave
feedback on the BOI should you choose to purchase this particular
animal.... and WHEN you prove her out, I would love to see the albinos!

Please do not waste my time further with this scam. Please work toward the creation of value in the marketplace rather than its destruction. You will be better off in the long run, as will us all.

I agree with Cruciform! Give it to the Feds!! Plus any other info you receive from these scammers. The addresses where you are suppose to send the money back to, e-mails, letters, etc... More then likely they won't do anything about it, but you never know. Plus it wouldn't hurt.

I was baiting them for a while there, and collecting their counterfeit cashiers checks, but it got boreing after a while. I did recently get one that offered to send me a $7,000.00 in postal money orders. I baited "her" and brought the money order(s) along with all of the e-mails and her cell phone # (that they kept calling me from) to the post office. The post office really couldn't do anything as the scammer was in Nigeria. Pretty much a waste of time on my part I guess. Here is my ever growing list of the Nigerian and Nigerian type scammers that have approached me in the last 9 months. Enjoy!
