Dear Sir/Madam
I
wish to inform you that my in law was Finance and Economic Planning
Minister Honorable Kwadwo Baah Wiredu until his death. He died last
year Sept 24 2008 and was buried on October 2008 under NPP Party
[National Patriotic Party].
My country had election and the
ruling party lost in the election under President John Agyekum Kufuor
and the new President Prof. Evans John Atta Mills won the election and
was sworn in 7th January 2009 Since after his death my sister and
children has been denied access to travel out because his party in
which my in law was serving as a minister before his untimely death
lost the election and the transition TEAM has seized the entire family
travelling documents.
Before his death he deposited the sum of
USD$11,500,000.00 to a finance firm in Europe because he is not allowed
to deposit such fund in the bank to avoid trace indeed all the
documents concerning this deposit are now with my sister the wife of
the late minister, of which we can make available once you indicate
your interest to take custodian of this fund on behalf of the family as
our nominated next of kin I will discuss with my sister and the
children to allow you to take possession of the fund so that the
government will not trace it and confiscate the money.
Further clarifications on this offer please: click:http://www.ghanaweb.com/GhanaHomePage/NewsArchive/photo.day.php?ID=150559
Please
confirm your interest and readiness to work with us so that I will give
you the contact of the firm the fund is deposited and the depositary
documents so that you can open up communication to claim the fund.
Revert ASAP.
My regards,
Allen Akoto

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.
