FROM THE DESK OF:MR ISHAQ IBRAHIM
AFRICAN DEVELOPMENT BANK
HEADQUARTERS COTONOU REPUBLIC BENIN.
I
am :MR ISHAQ IBRAHIM, credit officer of African Development Bank. I
have an urgent and very confidential business proposition for you. In
June, 1999, a German property.
consultant and importer of used cars ,Mr Andreas Schranner
made
a numbered time (Fixed) Deposit for twelve calendar months, valued at
US$35,000,000.00(Thirty five Million United States Dollars only) in my
branch. It was to our utter suprise that we heard of his death, wife
and children in an AF4590 plane crash in
July 2000. See website below:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/859479.stm On
further
investigation,I found out that he died without making a WILL, and
hitherto, all attempts to trace his next of kin was fruitless. Mr
Andreas Schranner was residing at No 1 Rue de Avenida, G.R.A. Cotonou,
Benin Republic. I therefore made further investigation and discovered
that Mr Andreas Schranner did not declare any kin or relations in all
his official documents, including his Bank Deposit paperwork in my
Bank. This sum of US$35,000,000.00 is still sitting in my Axs and the
interest is being rolled over with the principal sum at the end of each
year.
No one will ever come forward to claim it.
Consequently, my proposal is that I will like you as a foreigner to
stand in as the next of kin or business partner to Mr Andreas Schranner
so that the fruits of this old man's labor will not get into the mouths
of some corrupt government officials. This is simple, I will like you
to provide immediately your full names and address,phone and telephax
numbers so that the attorney will prepare the necessary documents to
scam you and affidavits that will put you in place as the next of kin
or a scam victim. I have two of my colleagues who are on top.
Of
me officials of the bank involved in this transaction. Your role in the
transaction is to send an application for claim of the funds to our
bank.
Then, as top officials of the bank,we shall work
behind-the-anus to make sure that your application is approved by the
management of the bank,and the funds transfered to your nominated bank
account.
Please note that there is no attom of risks at all as all
the paperwork for this transaction will be done legitimately and with
our positions as top officials of the bank would ensure a successful
execution of this transaction. If you are interested,please reply
immediately to my email box.
Please send me your
confidential telephone and fax numbers for easy communication. You
should observe utmost CONFIDENTIALITY AND SECRECY in this transaction,
and rest assured that this transaction would be most profitable
for
both of us because I will require your assistance to invest my share in
your country. I look forward to your prompt response.Private Email

Thanks and regards.
Mr Ishaq Ibrahim!

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.
