Greetings,
My name is Mr. Jonathan Conahan and am a citizen of Libya, Am from the
family of late Brigadier General Middeck Conahan. am the first son of
my father and my father was assassinated last three months ago due to
political conflict, as the first son I decided to leave my country and
I am now in Benin Rep because of security reason. There is no business
I trust to invest in Benin Rep here because it is a small country.
In fact I don’t like this country and I want to leave this country and
go to any other country that is good for investment. Actually, I intend
to invest the sum of fifteen million one hundred and eighty thousand
U.S. dollars {$15.180,000} and I am searching for a good business man
that know much about any kinds of investment because I want to stay out
of Africa for security reason, there is still political conflict in my
country Libya.
However, you should know that the amount I have for this investment is
only fifteen million one hundred and eighty thousand U.S. dollars
{$15.180, 000} and I want you to research for a good investment that
will be yielding a good profit as well. We will be sharing the profit
that comes out of the business every monthly and it will be sharing
50/50 percentage.
All filled requirements should be forwarded to my Privet Email (jconahan1@hotmail.com)

This is just a small sampling of the
many hundreds of advance fee fraud e-mails received each day here at
419BAITER
headquarters. It is 100% pure B.S. Purity Guaranteed!
There are many different types of 419 scam (examples)
but they all promise you something (fortune, job with salary /
commision,
low-interest loan, lottery prize,
bargain gold dust / diamonds,
work visa, etc.) in return
for a small 'fee' or some kind of remittance. Of course, there is no
fortune, no job, no loan, no prize to be had. It's just a ploy to get
you to
willingly send them money.
If you receive one of these scam mails, simply delete it as you would any other spam mails.
