Greetings to you,
Please kindly accept my apology for sending unsolicited mail to you. I
believe you are a highly respected personality, considering the fact
that I sourced your profile from a human resource profile database on
your country, I got your email from a business directory due to my
desperate search to look for someone who will help me. Though the
Internet is a seemingly unlikely place to find individual who can be
trust worthy, I believe that the Lord hides jewels in the most unlikely
places. It is not the means that is important but the message.
I'm Baron Wilikiki son to late Mr. Williams Wilikiki from Sierra Leone;
I am seeking a faithful, sincere and reliable foreigner who will assist
us in investing my late father's fortune in the amount WORTH of US$ 42,
000, 000, 00 and 200KG of Gold.. This amount was originally deposited
by our late father in a security company in Ghana and just before my
parents and two of my siblings were killed by rebels in our family
house in Sierra-Leone, my father had successfully lodged the money at
the Bank of Ghana.
I and my Younger brother who is now in (Republic of Congo) are the only
survivors of our family. Before my brother's trip to Congo, we have
successfully got through the assistance of the foreign operations
director of the Bank of Ghana, to transferred the amount from Bank of
Ghana pool account to that of PRIVATE bank. We did this because there
is tax haven in most private banks here and we could not pay the huge
taxes required by the Bank of Ghana for the release of the money to us.
I am therefore seeking your assistance to stand-in for us as our late
father's business partner and foreign investor, to claim this money
from the private bank in here as the beneficiary. You will also be
required to assist us in investing our own part of the money into
valuable business ventures in abroad and for all this we are offering
you 15% of the total funds as reward.
The Bank of Ghana has already nominated a fiduciary agent who will act
as financial adviser and mediator between the beneficiary and the
Private bank and who will also assist us in obtaining the relevant
documents required by the bank for the release of the funds to you on
our behalf. This means that we do not need the services of a diplomat
as I thought before in order to obtain the release & delivery of
the money because it will be done through the Private Bank. Therefore,
if you can assure us of your sincerity, honesty and ability to help us
secure the release of this amount and invest it before our arrival to
your country; I will give your contact details to the fiduciary agent
so he will present you as the beneficiary to the funds while processing
actual release of it on your behalf.
Please note that you stand no risk at all in assisting us to conclude
this transaction because the money is legitimately our family fortune.
Please, if you are ready to be our Investor, do get back to me at my
private e-mail, address: baron.wilikiki2@gmail.com
So we can proceed with immediate effect.
Regards,
Baron Wilikiki.

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.

section.
NOTE TO
DUMBASS SPAMMERS:
My scam e-mail filtering system is pretty good
but it isn't perfect.
Occasionally a regular spam e-mail will get mistakenly published here
as
a
419 scam. This is inadvertent. If you are a spammer and you don't wish
to have your crap mistakenly published on this website as a
419
advance fee
scam, the solution is
simple. Don't mail your crap to harvested e-mail
addresses.
