Dear Sir/Ma,
My name is Ahmed Al-Bakr the son of Lt.Col Al-Bakr Hassan, special
hired aid to the late President Sadam Hussein. During the crisis that
led to his arrest he kept US$120,000.000 (One Hundred and Twenty
Million United States Dollars) in my father's position for security and
safe-keeping.
When my Father heard of his arrest / captured, he quickly concealed the
US$120m in a Metallic Trunk Box and deposited it in a security and
finance company in Netherlands and declared the contents as family
precious effects to avoid any detection.
My father died last year as a result of injuries he sustained during
the crisis, before his death he told me in confidence as his only son
that he deposited the money in a Security and Finance Company in
Netherlands and he handed all the related documents to me.
Now I am in a political asylum in Netherlands and I want the fund
to be moved out from the security and finance company for an investment.
After going through your profiles in the internet list of people's name
I decided to contact you for your expert advice and assistance to move
the money to your country for an investment in the areas of business
you may introduce to me because I am not a business man and I have not
been into business before, the investment will be under your care.
It is imperatives that you come to Netherlands for us to see ourselves one on one and carry out this transaction without delay.
I want to let you know that you are entitled to 20% of the total fund for your assistance.

Please reply to my alternative email:albakrahmed12@gmail.com
Thanks and best regards,
Ahmed Al-Bakr.

It's important to note that
any real people and / or legitimate
organizations whose actual names or other details appear in
these scam e-mails have absolutely no
connection
with this scam!
Scammers never use their real
names.
They frequently take on the identity of real people to help make themselves and their scam appear legitimate.

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.
