Mr. Tony Akan,
Branch Manager
Eco Bank of Ghana
First Light Branch
Accra, Ghana .
Esteemed Compliments,
I
anticipate that you read this mail quickly and let me know your opinion
or willingness on this classified information that I will release to
you. Firstly, I am a happily married man with 3 kids and therefore I
would not want to jeopardize this opportunity to change my financial
status that will give my family a secured future.
I am Mr.
Tony Akan, the branch manager of the Eco Bank Of Ghana Limited, First
Light Branch Accra. I am 48 years of age. It may interest you to hear
that I am a man of PEACE and don't want problem, but I don't know how
you will feel about this, but I am telling you that this is real and
you are not going to regret after doing this transaction with me. I
only hope we can assist each other. But if you don't want this business
offer kindly forget it.
I have packaged a financial
transaction that will benefit both of us, as the branch manager of the
Eco Bank Of Ghana Limited; it is my duty to send in a financial report
to my head office in the capital city Accra-Ghana at the end of each
year. On the course of the last two years 2007 end of year report, I
discovered that my branch in which I am the Manager made Twelve Million
Eight Hundred and Fifty Thousand Dollars [$12,850.000.00] which my head
office are not aware of and will never be aware of, Nor must they know
that I am involved in this transaction.
I have since place
this fund on what we call SUSPENSE ACCOUNT without any beneficiary. As
an officer of the bank I cannot be directly connected to this money, so
this informed my contacting you for us to work so that you can assist
receive this money into your bank account for us to SHARE, while you
will have 35% of the total fund.
Note there are practically
no risk involved, it will be bank to bank transfer, all I need from you
is to stand claim as the original depositor of this fund who made the
deposit with our branch so that my Head office can order the transfer
to your designated bank account. If you accept this offer to work with
me, I will appreciate it very much. As soon as I receive your kind
response, I will give you details on how we can achieve it successfully.
Best Regards
Mr. Tony Akan.

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.

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.
