Dear Friend,
I have a business suggestion for you. let me start by introducing
myself to you
fully. I am Mr. Chen Guan, Foreign Operations Manager of the Bank of
China(Hong
kong). Before the U.S and Iraqi war our client Ali Hussein who was with the
Iraqi forces and also a businessman made a numbered fixed deposit for 12
calendar months, with a value of Seventeen Million Three Hundred Thousand
United State Dollars only into an account with my branch. Upon
maturity several
notice was sent to him, even during the war . Again after the war another
notification was sent and still no response came from him. We later found out
that the Ali Hussein and his family had been killed during the war in bomb
blast that hit their home. After further investigation it was also discovered
that Ali Hussein did not declare any next of kin in his official papers
including the paper work of his bank deposit. And he also confided in me the
last time he was at my office that no one except me knew of his deposit in my
bank. So, Seventeen Million Three Hundred Thousand United State
Dollars(US$17,300,000.00) is still lying in my bank and no one will ever come
forward to claim it. What bothers me most is that according to the laws of my
country at the expiration 7years the funds will revert to the ownership of the
Hong Kong Government if nobody applies to claim the funds. Against this
backdrop, my suggestion to you is that I will like you as a foreigner to stand
as the next of kin to Ali Hussein so that you will be able to receive his
funds. Please reply to my private email for more Details (chenguan777@w.cn)
Thank you for your time and understanding
Kind Regards,
Mr. Chen Guan.

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.
