http://www.nigeriaembassyusa.org/fraud.shtml



the international code for these types of scams in 419...which happens to be the penal code for the crime in Nigeria.... let's be real....



of course it's not a nigerian crime..but like I said in the first post.....this hustle was run to perfection by con artists from there..so much so that that international code for the crime comes from the nigerian law book...

=================================================





Dear Friend,

Please as you read this, I don't want you to feel sorry for me,
because, I
believe everyone will die someday. My name is Gerald Kantamoraji, a
merchant
in Dubai, in the U.A.E.I have been
Diagnosed with Oesophageal cancer, which was discovered very late, due
to my
laxity in
caring for my health. It has defiled all forms of medicine, and right
now I
have only about a few months to live, according to medical experts.

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

I believe if given a second chance to come to this world I would live
my
life a different way
from how I have lived it. Now that my time is over, I have willed and
given
most of my properties and assets to my immediate and extended family
members
and as well as a few close friends.

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

I once asked members of my family to close one of my accounts and
distribute
the money, which I have there to charity organization in Bulgaria and
Pakistan; they refused and kept the money to themselves. Hence, I do
not
trust them anymore, as they seem not to be contended with what I have
left
for them.

The last of my money, which no one knows of, is the huge cash deposit
of
$24,000,000.00 (Twenty four million United States Dollars Only) dollars
that
I have with Lloyds Tsb Bank Plc London England. And I deposited it as
an
Inheritance payment I will want you to help me collect this deposit and
dispatched it to charity organizations.

I have set aside 30% for your time and patience. All the necessary
documents
regards to the release of this funds will be made on your name to
enable the
bank make a direct transfer to your account.

If this is acceptable by you, I will need you to send the following to
me at
once:

1) Your name and address
2) Name of your bank and address
3) Your account number
4) Beneficiary to the account
5) Your bank swift or routing number
6) Your direct telephone and fax number

Once I receive this information, I will forward them to my attorney in
London. He will use this information to secure all the legal documents
on
your name. Copies of the documents will be emailed to you for your
study and
record before transfer will take place to your account. I will also
give you
his direct telephone and email address.

Gerald Kantamoraji

NB: please do not disclose it to any one. And get back to me for more
information.

Please reply to my Direct Email:

========================

yeah, I got one a few months ago, I had fun with it though. Told them to pass me their details and my accountant would deal with it. They actually sent me passport pics, I pressed for bank details and a 50% cut and they said I was beign unfair... it was £10 million or something, dad had died, money is in England, blah blah blah... kinda funny really.

ANOTHER one



Dear Friend,


I warm-heartedly make this contact with you on a positive note Anticipating your kind consideration and co-operation,and plead for your time and understanding in this. Firstly, my name is Mrs DORRIS OWUSU, I am the wife of late MICHAEL OWUSU.My late husband MICHAEL OWUSU who was a very successful business tycoon based here in Ghana was a Gold minner and also the chairman Executive MICHROYAL HOTEL, C.E.O OWUSU HOLDINGS and a host of other companies died last month at the age of 56 years after a briefillness at Kolebu Teaching Hospital here in Ghana. In our world today,such a manner of approach may not be acceptable or very suspicious, as we do not know each other and have not had any sort of communication in the past, but I urge you to take my email very seriously, considering the situation. Could you believe that the tradition and customs of the town and village where my late husband came from demands that any woman who does not have a male child for the husband, that when ever the husband dies, all the properties belonging to the late husband including cash will be shared among the late husband brothers and the woman will be sent out of her husband house for good. My dear, this is exactly what I am going through right now since last month my husband died. My late husband brothers has taken all the properties belonging to my late husband including companies, bank accounts and as well sent me and my little daughters out of my husband house just because I do not have a male child for my late husband. This is a wicked tradition and culture that has no moral value. As am talking to you now, I and my two daughters are going through hell at the moment. Right now, I am having in my position all the vital documents relating to the sum of $4.5 million dollars and 120kgs of Gold which my late husband deposited with a Storage company here in Ghana as a family treasure with my name as the next of kin before his death. Last week I contacted the manager of the Storage company and I was told that the consignment is very much intact,that I can as well come for it any time I feel like. Please remember that I cannot make use of this fund and this Gold here due to forces surrounding me at the moment, I am regarded as a treat to my husband brother and they have threatened to kill me. Please have mercy at the poor widow like me and help me out of this mess. All I want you to do for me is to assist me transfer this fund and this Gold to your country immediately before my late husband brothers will have knowledge of it and claim it just like the way they did to others. I strongly believe that the only way I can secure this money and this gold for myself is to act fast now and transfer this money and this Gold overseas,that is the main reason why I am contacting you for your assistance.Please note that, as soon as this fund and this Gold is transferred to your country,you will stand the chance to have 20% percent of the total fund while 80% percent will remain for me so that I can be able to take care of my two kids my late husband left behind for me. Remember that my children are the only happiness I have here on earth and I cannot stand to watch them go through such pains. You will be greatly rewarded and be entitled to a percentage of the proceeds from the any investments for rendering me this most needed assistance. I look forward to hearing from you immediately so that I can direct you what next to do for us to commence the Transaction.


Sincerely,


MRS DORRIS OWUSU.
