[ 419 SCAM
E-MAILS ]
Below are just a few random samples of the many
419 scam
e-mails that
I received in just one day in January, 2008 - (the 9th). Each one of
these is a
scam of one kind or another.
While there are many e-mails here, these e-mails
are just a very small fraction of the actual amount of scam e-mails
sent out each day by 419 scammers. Thus, if you've received a
suspicious e-mail that isn't listed here on these pages, it doesn't
mean that it isn't a scam. In fact, if you receive anything even
remotely similar to any of the scam e-mails you see here or if you
arrived at this page via an internet search, I can 100%
guarantee you...YOU HAVE
RECEIVED
A SCAM E-MAIL!
To see what this site is really all about, visit The Games
section.
There are many different types of 419 scam (examples)
but they all promise you something (fortune, job, loan, lottery prize,
gold dust,
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.
|
It's important to note that
any real people or legitimate
organizations mentioned in these e-mails have absolutely no connection
with these scammers!
None of the scammers use their real
names.
Sometimes they take on the identity of real people to help them
convince you that they are genuine.
Whatever these scammers tell you, DON'T
believe a word of it!!!

From The Desk Of Mr.SALIF KOMI.
Senior Staff In File Department,
Bank Of Africa (b.o.a)
Ouagadougou Burkina-Faso
West Africa.
PLANE CRASH WEB SITE!!!!!
( "REMITTANCE OF $15.5 MILLION U.S.A
DOLLARS CONFIDENTIAL IS THE CASE")
Compliment Of The Season,
On a very good day. I am (Mr.SALIF KOMI ) a
senior staff in file department in Bank Of Africa (B.O A).I got your contact from
a Yahoo Tourist Search.
When
i was searching for a foreign partner i assured of your capability and
reliability to champion this business opportunity when i prayed to
God
about you. In my department we discovered an abandoned sum of $ 15.5
million U.S.A dollars ( 15.5
million U.S.A dollars) . In an account that belongs to
one of our foreign customer who died along with his entire family in (Friday December 26,2005 )
in a plane crash.
Since
we got information about his death, we have been expecting his next of
kin to come over and claim his money because we cannot release it
unless somebody applies for it as next of kin or relation to the
deceased as indicated in our banking guidelines,
But unfortunately we learnt that
all his supposed next of
kin or relation died alongside with him at the plane crash leaving
nobody behind for the claim. It is therefore upon this discovery that I
and one official in my department now decided to make this business
proposal to you and release the money to you as the next of kin or
relation to the deceased for safety and subsequent disbursement since
nobody is coming for it and we don’t want this money to go into the
bank treasury as unclaimed bill.
The Banking law and guideline
here stipulates that if such money remained unclaimed after five years,
the money will be transferred into the Bank treasury as unclaimed fund.
The request of foreigner as next of kin in this business is occasioned
by the fact that the customer was a foreigner,
And a Burkinabe cannot stand as
next of kin to a
foreigner. We agree that 30 % of this money will be for you as foreign
partner, in respect to the provision of a foreign account, 10 % will be
set aside for expenses incurred during the business and 60 % would be
for me and my woman colleague. There after I and my colleague will
visit your country for disbursement according to the percentages
indicated.
Therefore to enable the immediate transfer of this
fund to you as arranged, you must apply first to the bank as relations
or next of kin of the deceased indicating your bank name, your bank
account number, your private telephone and fax number for easy and
effective communication and location where the money will be remitted.
Upon receipt of your reply, I will
send to you by fax or
email the text of the application I will not fail to bring to your
notice that this transaction is hitch free and that you should not
entertain any atom of fear as all required arrangements have been made
for the transfer.
Trusting to hear from
you immediately.
Yours faithfully,
Mr.SALIF
KOMI.
POST
SCRITUM!!!!!!
:You have to keep everything secret as to enable the transfer to move
very smoothly in to the account you will prove to the bank ok.
From Mrs Rose Moses
Hello my dear
I am Mrs Rose Moses from Solomon Islands. I was married to Mr.Charles
Moses who was a contractor with the government of Cote D'Ivoire before
he died in the year 2005 after few days in the hospital as a result of
food poison, which i recently noticed that he was killed by his own
blood brother.
When my husband was alive, we realized reasonable amounts of money from
contracts and some other deals that we successfully executed, and
before his death, he put in a trunck box the sum of $ 8.5 Million US
dollars and deposited it with a security company as family valuables.
Please am contacting you because I want you to help me in securing the
money for the future of my children since my husband's relatives have
succeeded in claiming and have sold most of my late husband property
trying to leave me with nothing.
I hope to trust you as who will not sit on this money when you claim
it.I will give you 15% of the total money for your assistance. If you are
willing to assist me with your true and honest mind without betraying
me at the end reply me as soon as possible so that I can give you more
information.
Best regards
Madam Rose.
Bismillāhi-r-Rahmāni-r-Rahīm,
Al-Hamdulillāhi Was-Salātu Was-Salāmu 'Alā Rasūlillāh,
Wa Ba'd,
As-Salāmu 'Alaikum Wa Rahmatullāhi Wa Barakātuh,
Wasalaam to you,and how are you doing?. My intention
of contacting you is to solicit your assistance for a
project, which will be mutually beneficial. Though I
know my decision to contact you is to a large extent
unconventional, the prevailing circumstances
necessitated my action. I am Adiba Hashim from Libya.
I am married to Late Mallam Jebel Hashim of blessed
memory was an oil explorer in Libya and Kuwait for
twelve years before he died in the year 2000. We were
married for twelve years without a child. He died
after a brief illness that lasted for only four days.
Before his death we were both devoted Muslims. Since
his death I too have been battling with both Cancer
and fibroid problems. When my late Husband was alive
he made a huge deposit in millions of US dollars with
a Deposit Company in oversea. (I will tell you the
amount as we proceed).
Recently, my doctor told me that I have only six
months to live due to cancer problem. Though what
disturbs me most is my stroke sickness. Having known
my condition I decided to donate this fund to either a
Muslim organization or devoted Muslim individual that
will utilize this money the way I am going to instruct
herein. I want this Muslim organization or individual
to use this money in all sincerity to fund mosques,
orphanages, widows, and also propagating the word of
ALLAH and to ensure that the society upholds the views
and belief of the Holy Quran.The Holy Quran emphasizes
so much on ALLAH'S benevolence and this has encourage
me to take the bold step. I took this decision because
I don't have any child that will inherit this money
and my husband relatives are into some radical
Organizations and I don't want a situation where this
money will be used in an Unholy manner. Hence the
reasons for this bold decision. I know that after
death I will be with ALLAH the most beneficent and the
most merciful. I don't need any telephone
communication in this regard because of my health,
because of the presence of my husband's relatives
around me always. I don't want them to know about this
development.
With ALLAH all things are possible(second Sura,( verse
257) which says: "There must be no coercion in matters
of faith").As soon as I receive your reply on Email:
hadiba@personal.ro, I shall give you the contact
information of the Deposit Company in oversea where
the money was deposited. I will also issue a letter of
authority to the Deposit Company authorizing them that
the said fund Have being willed to you and a copy of
such authorization will be forwarded to you.
I want you and the Muslim community where you reside
to always pray for me. My happiness is that I lived a
true devoted Muslims worthy of emulation. Whoever that
wants to serve ALLAH must serve him in truth and in
fairness. I will not stipulate any precise amount to
reward you, as it will have to be on pre-negotiated
terms, based on your level of involvement. Please
always be prayerful all through your life. Any delay
in your reply will give room in sourcing for a Muslim
organization or a devoted Muslim for this same
purpose. Until I hear from you by email, my dreams
will rest squarely on your Shoulders.
"And I (Allah) did not create jinns and humans except
that they worship Me(alone)"
Qu'ran 51:56
May the Almighty ALLAH continue to guide and protect
you.
Allah Hafiz.
Adiba Hashim.
Dearest
in Christ,
Greetings
in the Name above all names, Jesus Christ our Lord and saviour, I am
Mrs Joy Prakash. I am married to
Mr.Livingston Prakash who worked with
Kuwait embassy in Ivory Coast for many years before he died in
the year
2006.We were married without a child. He died after a brief
illness
that lasted for only four days. Before his death we were both born
again Christian.
Since
his death I decided not to remarry or get a child outside my
matrimonial home which the Bible is against. When my late husband was
alive he deposited the sum of (($2.600.000.00)
Two million six hundred
thousand dollar in a Bank in Ivory Coast . Presently, this money is
still in bank. Recently, my Doctor told me that I would not last for
the next Eight months due to cancer problem.
The
one that disturbs me most is my stroke sickness. Having known my
condition I decided to donate this fund to a charity organization that
will utilize this money the way I am going to instruct herein. I want
an organization that will use this fund for orphanages, school and
church, widows, propagating the word of God and to endeavour that the
house of God is maintained, Isaiah 56:7 For my house will be called a
house of prayer for all nations." The Bible made us to understand that
"Blessed is the hand that giveth".I took this decision because I don't
have any child that will inherit this money and my husband relatives
are not Christians and I don't want my husband's efforts to be used by
unbelievers.
I
don't want a situation where this money will be used in an ungodly way.
This is why I am taking this decision. I am not afraid of death hence I
know where I am going. I know that I am going to be in the bosom of the
Lord. Exodus 14 VS 14 says that "the lord will fight my case and I
shall hold my peace". I don't need any telephone communication in this
regard because of my health hence the presence of my husband's
relatives around me always. I don't want them to know about this
development. With God all things are possible. As soon as I receive
your reply I shall give you the contact of the Bank.
I
await your soonest response with your full information, example.
Your
full name.......................
Address.....................................
Age...........................................
I
will use the above
information to obtain an authority letter
that will
prove you the present beneficiary of this fund from the federal
ministry of Justice Cote D'Ivoire. I want you and the church to always
pray for me because the lord is my shepherd. My happiness is that I
lived a life of a worthy Christian.
Whoever
that wants to serve the Lord must serve him in spirit and Truth. Please
always be prayerful all through your life.
Please
assure me that you will act accordingly as I Stated herein. Hoping to
receive your reply with the above information.
Remain blessed in the Lord
Take
care,
Yours
Sister in Christ
