Greeting's to you ?
Rue 18 cocody,
Abidjan Ivory Coast.
Good thing to write you I have a proposal for you, i intend to establish
with you in your country which however is not mandatory nor will in any
manner compel you to honour against your will.
Dearest we are steve and mary kurubos , of our late Parents Mr and mrs
kurubos. Our Father was a highly reputable business magnet-(a cocoa
merchant)who operated in the capital of Ivory coast during His days. It
is sad to say that He passed away mysteriously in France during one of
his business trips abroad .
Though His sudden death was linked or rather suspected to have been
masterminded by an uncle of ours who travelled with Him at that time. But
God knows the truth!Our mother died when we where small ,and since then
our Father took us so special. Before His death , My father called me
and told me that he has the sum of (USD$8.700,000) (EIGHT MILLION SEVEN
HUNDRED UNITED STATES DOLLARS)deposited with a security company as a Trunk
box in Cote'D Ivoire west Africa. He further told me that He deposited
the box with the name of a business partner while I am the next of kin
and that, the security company is not aware that the content of the box is
cash.
We are just young 16and 18 years old and a highy school college people,
with little knowledge of business that is why We are in need of a partner
whom will assist us to get this fund released for investments in his or
her country while I proceed with our education
Dear,
We are in a sincere desire of your humble assistance on this regard, and
your suggestions and ideas will be highly appreciated.
Now permit me to ask these few questions?
1. Can you honestly do this transaction with Us ?
2.can We completely trust you?
Please,Consider this and get back to us as soon as possible so that we can
give you the full informations that will be need. And We will want you to
know that you are the frist person we have contacted for this
transaction.
Thank you so much and God bless you abundantly.
Best regards,
steve And mary kurubos

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.
