Attn: Sir/Madam,
I
am David Well , a legal practitioner based in United Kingdom, I feel
quite safe dealing with you in this business proposition, although this
medium (Internet) has been greatly abused, I chose to reach you through
it because it still remains the fastest, surest and most secured medium
of communication. Be informed that this letter is not a hoax or Scam
mail and I urge you to treat it with the seriousness it deserves.
I
am the personal attorney to Robert Fitzpatrick, an American who was a
consultant with Shell UK LTD here in London, who shall be referred to
as my client. Unfortunately my client lost his life aboard Egypt Air
Flight 990, which crashed into the Atlantic Ocean on October 31st, 1999
(news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/502503.stm) and left no clear
beneficiary as Next of Kin except some vital documents related to the
deposit still with me. All efforts by me to trace his Next of Kin
proved abortive because he did not make any will prior to his death.
Since
then I have made several inquiries to locate any of my late clients
extended relatives and this has proved unsuccessful. After my several
unsuccessful attempts to locate any member of his family hence I
contacted you. I am contacting you to assist in claiming the money left
behind by my client before they get confiscated or declared unclaimed
by the security company where this huge deposit were deposited.
Particularly, the finance company where the deceased had the said fund
valued at USD20 million dollars has issued me a notice to provide the
next of kin. Consequent upon this, my idea is that we can have a
deal/agreement and I am going to do this legally with your name as the
bona fide beneficiary of the amount in question as I have all legal
document to back our claim.
I seek your consent to
present you as the next of kin to the deceased so that the proceeds of
this account valued at $20 Million US dollars can be paid to your
account abroad, note that 35% of this money will be for you, in respect
to the provision of a foreign account and 55% would be for me as I have
planned to come to your Country as soon as the transfer is completed,
10% will be used for the reimbursement of any expenditure we may incur
in the cause of the transaction.
I guarantee that this
will be executed under a legitimate arrangement that will protect you
from any breach of the law, all I need from you is your utmost
collaboration and sincerity for us to thrive in this deal.
Please
kindly get back to me through my email address or personal phone number
for confidentiality and send to me your telephone and fax numbers to
enable us discuss further on this transaction.
Kind regards,
DAVID WELL Esq

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.
