worked with Tunisia embassy in Burkina Faso for nine years before he
died in the year 2005. We were married for eleven years without a
child. He died after a brief illness that lasted for only five days.
Since his death I decided not to remarry, When my late husband was
alive he deposited the sum of US$6.2m(Six million two hundred thousand
dollars) in a bank in Ouagadougou the capital city of Burkina Faso in
west Africa Presently this money is still in bank. He made this money
available for exportation of Gold from Burkina Faso mining.

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.
If you receive one of these scam mails, simply delete it as you would any other spam mails.
