[ 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 11th). 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 ABDULLAHI
LAWAL
BANK OF AFRICA [BOA]
OUAGADOUGOU, BURKINA FASO
,Dear friend
Please, kindly pardon me for any
inconvenience this letter may cause
you because I know it may come to you as a surprise
as we’ have no previous correspondence.
I am the manager of bill and exchange at the foreign
remittance department of
BANK OF AFRICA.
I am seeking your cooperation to present you to my bank as the Next of
kin.
In my department, I discovered
an abandoned sum of$25million
USD(THIRTYmillion US dollars)only , in an account that belongs to one
of our
foreign customers who died along with his entire family in a plane
crash that took
place in Kenya,East Africa,the Late DR. GEORGE BRUMLEY,a citizen of
Atlanta,United
States of America but naturalised in Burkinafaso,West Africa and
contractor with
ECOWAS,(ECONOMIC COMMUNITY OF WEST AFRICAN STATES) .
Since we got information about his death, we have been expecting his
next of
kin to come over and claim his money because it cannot be released
unless
somebody applies for it as next of kin or relation to the deceased as
indicated in
our banking guidelines but unfortunately , 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 now decided to make
this
businness proposal to you and release the money to you via your foreign
bank
account as the next of kin or relation to the deceased for safety and
subsequent
disbursement since nobody is coming for it and this money Could go into
the Bank
treasury as unclaimed Bill.
The Banking law and guideline here stipulates that if such money
remainedunclamed after four years, the money will betransfered into the
Bank
treasury as unclaimed fund.The request for your assistance and maximum
co-operation as a foreign citizen to stand as the next of kin in this
business
is occasioned by the fact that the deceased customer was a foreigner
and a
Burkinabe cannot stand as next of kin to a foreigner.
40 % of this money will be for you as my foreign partner, inrespect to
the
provision of a foreign account. 10 %will be set aside for expences
incured during
the business and 50 % would be for me.There after I will come over to
your country
for disbursement accoding to the percentages indicated.
Therefore to enable the immediate trnansfer of this fund to you as
arranged,you must apply first to the bank as the relation or next of
kin to the
deceased,indicating your claims and wherein the money will be remitted
.
Upon receipt of your reply, I will send to you by fax or email the text
of
application which you will fill and submit to the office of the foreign
remittance
director of the bank of africa. I will not fail to bring to your notice
that this
transaction is stricly confidential and i will use my position in this
Bank to
effect a hitch free transfer of the fund.
You should contact me immediately as soon as you receive this letter.
Trusting to hear from you immediately.
Please , visit the website below
for more informations about the Plane
Crash and the tragic death of the deceased and his entire family, Late
DR. GEORGE
BRUMLEY.
