[ 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!!!

Goodday ,
I'm happy to email you this
message and I hope it will meet you in a good condition of health with
your family. I am yet to disclose this secret to you
regarding my late
father's deposit here in Ghana
with SEC-POINT SECURITY COMPANY of which I want to invest into real
estate or purchase of cottages.
Lest you forget, my name is Samuel Kafu Kemokai.
I am the first son of Chief Omoh Kemokai, the former Chairman of Sierra
Leone Mining Corporation.My father who was the former
Chairman of Sierra
Leone Mining Corporation was brutally murdered
in 2002 by the RUF rebels due to their selfish
interest because of Diamond gems and au gold dust in our country.
Before my father's death, he had already acquired a vast estate and a
considerable wealth in Sierra
Leone
whereby he deposited two trunk boxes containing Thirty Three Million US
Dollars (US$33,000,000.00) with the aforementioned company here in Accra
and my late father purposely registered them as precious items in order
not to attract the attention of the security officers, and for safety
reasons until he is ready to use the cash for investments.
Unfortunately,
as an adage says "Man proposes but God dispose" my father could not
live to achieve all his dreams. Based on this, I am seriously
soliciting on your kind assistance to help move this
us$33million to
your country for investment into real estate or purchase of cottage in
your good country.
There
is nothing for you to worry about becuase this us$33million belongs
to ME and I will like to entrust the cash in
your care as my trustee.
No one knows about this not even my cousine. You are the only
person
who has the true knowledge of the deposits in question.
I am waiting for your urgent , Thanks and best
regards,
Sam Kemokai

FROM THE DESK OF PRINCE JOHN SAMA
BILL AND EXCHANGE MANAGER,
ECOWAS BANK LOME TOGO
Dear Friend
With due respect and humility I am writing this
proposal to you.
I am the manager of bill and exchange at the foreign remittance
department of ECOWAS BANK AU TOGO.
In my department, we discovered an abandoned sum
of U.S$18.5M US
dollars (Eighteen million five hundred thousand united states dollar
only).In an account that belongs to Mr Burke Sean a United States
Citizen and (ECOWAS BANKER) foreign customer who died with
Korean Air
Flight 801 Boeing 747 that was carrying 254 passengers when
it crashed
into the dense jungle early Wednesday August 5, 1997 morning
three
miles
(five kilometers) southwest of the airport. At
least 225 people died.
Since we got information about his death, we have been
expecting his next of kin to come forward 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 and
policies but unfortunately we learnt that all his supposed next of kin
or relation died alongside with him leaving nobody behind for the
claims. It is therefore upon this discovery that I have decided to make
this business proposal to you to transact this DEAL with you and to act
as the next of kin or relation to the deceased for safety and
subsequent disbursement since nobody is coming forth and l don't want
this money to go into the Bank treasury as unclaimed Bill.
According to our Banking policies and guideline
here which
stipulates that if such money remained unclaimed after six
years, the
money will automatically be transferred into the Bank treasury as
unclaimed fund. My request for a foreigner to act as next of kin in
this business is by the fact that the customer was a foreigner and a
citizen of this country cannot stand or put claims as next of kin to a
foreigner's Account.
l agreed to offer 25% of the total fund to you,
for your
assistance, to act as the next of Kin to the foreigner and provide an
account where this fund will be remitted, 5% will be for reimbursement
of any expenses incurred during the execution of the transaction.
Thereafter, I and my family will visit your country for
disbursement
and for investment in your country. Therefore to enable the immediate
transfer of this fund to you as arranged, you must apply first to the
bank as relation or next of kin of the deceased.
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.
You should contact me immediately as soon as you
receive this letter.
Hope to hear from you immediately.
For privacy please reply to :
Yours faithfully,
PRINCE JOHN SAMA

Dear Friend,
It is my pleasure to reach you after our
unsuccessful attempt on our business transaction. Well, I just want to
use this medium to thank you very much for your earlier assistance to
help me in receiving the funds, without any positive outcome.I am
obliged to inform you that I have succeeded in receiving the funds with
the help of a new partner from Paraguay Mr. Terres Sanchez.
Everything
was perfectly done because we strike a deal with one of the Lady
Accountant who works with the Federal Ministry of Finance (FMF), and
she rendered a tremendous help to us. My new partner initiated this
idea and everything worked out successfully.In appreciation of your
earlier assistance to me in receiving thefunds, I have decided to
compensate you with the sum of $450,000.00(Four Hundred and Fifty
Thousand United States Dollars) in a Cashier's cheque. This is from my
own share. I did this simply to show appreciation to you for your kind
support and assistance even though we could not succeed due to some
unforeseen circumstances and reason.Presently, I am in Paraguay for
investment project with my own share under the advice of my partner.
Meanwhile,
I didn't forget your past efforts and attempts to assist me in
transferring this funds despite the fact that we could not succeed. I
will be sending you e-mail from time to time to know if you have
received your share or not. In the light of the above, you are
therefore, to contact my lawyer. barr, Ibrahim Bawuro and do send him
your contact address where you want the cheque to be sent to. His
e-mail address is: barristeribrahimbawuro@yahoo.com
Please do
let me know immediately you receive it so that we can share the joy
together after all the suffering at that time. In the moment, I am very
busy here in Asuncion the capital city of Paraguay because of the
investment projects, which the new partner and I are having at hand. So
feel free to get in touch with him to send the cheque to you without
any delay.
With Regard From
Mr Jerry Udeh

Mr. John David, I am the regional bank manager of the Barclays
Bank Ghana
Ltd.
I

person to handle this Confidential Transaction. I only hope we can
assist each other.
I have packaged a financial transaction that will benefit both of us,
as the regional Auditor General of the Barclays Bank Ghana
Ltd.; it is my duty to send in a financial report to my head office in
the capital city Accra
at the end of each year.
On
the course of last year 2006 end of year report, I discovered that my
branch in which I am the manager made an excess profit
of Seven million
five hunderd united states dollars [US$7,5000,000.00] which my head
office are not aware of and will never be aware of. I have since placed
this fund on what we call SUSPENSE ACCOUNT without any beneficiary.
As
an officer of the bank I can not be directly connected to this money,
this is why I,m contacting you for us to work so that you can assist
and receive this money into your bank account for us to share.I will
offer you 20% of the total amount for your assistance.
Note
that there are practically no risks involved in this transaction ,it
will be bank to bank transfer,all I need from you is to stand claim as
the original depositor of this fund who made the deposit with Takoradi
branch so that my Head office can order the transfer to your designated
bank account. Do not make undue the advantage of the trust I have
bestowed on you, and I assure you we can achieve it
successfully.
