:: Stringing-along 419 scammers for my amusement ::
 |
[ 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 15th). 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.

MR IGBAL NADEEM
ACCOUNT OFFICIAL OF
INTER-CONTINENTAL BANK OF NIGERIA PLC.
EMAIL: iqbalnadeem207@yahoo.co.uk Dear Sir/Madam ,
With trust and presumed reliance,I
come to you with this
legitimate business of mine which will be a mutual benefit for both of
us, let me first introduce myself to you as we
haven't meet each other
or have any contact before. I am Mr Igbal Nadeem,AN ACCOUNT
OFFICIAL
with INTERCONTINENTAL BANK OF NIGERIA PLC.
I am writing the
following information I received from
one of my friends who run an information technology
consultancy.Although, I did not disclose to him the details
of the
business I intend to do.
In our Bank, during our routing
check, I discovered an
abandoned sum of ($9.5mllion USD) Nine Million, Five hundred thousand
United States Dollars in an account belonging to one
of our foreign
customers Mr. Mark Stuart an expatriate who died alongside
with his
entire family on Saturday, 4 May,2002, via EAS Airlines plane Crash in Kano,
Northern
Nigeria.Unfortunately,I discovered that all his supposed next of kin died with him over the plane crash incident. To throw lights on this and more
prove of my story,Please click the under mentioned BBC ARCHIVE NEWS and
CNN.com
NEWS ARCHIVE >
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/africa/1968300.stm http://archives.cnn.com/2002/WORLD/africa/05/05/nigeria.crash Since the demise of this our
customer, Mr. Mark Stuart who
was an expatriate, I have kept a close watch of the deposit records and
accounts and since then no body has come to claim the money in this a/c
as next of kin to the late expatriate.
The bank isplanning to freeze the
account and transfer the
money to Federal Government account as unclaimed
bill. This according
to banking law and guideline here which stipulates that such money if
remain unclaimed after maturity,will be transferred into banking
treasury as unclaimed effect.
He had only $9.5mllion in his a/c
and the a/c is coded. It is only an insider that could
produce the code or password of
the Deposit particulars.
As it stands now, there is nobody
in that position to
produce the needed information other than my very self considering my
position as his account officier.
Based on the reason that nobody
has come forward to claim
the fund as his next of kin,I hereby ask for your co-operation in
presenting you as the next of kin to the deceased to send these funds
out to a foreign offshore bank a/c for mutual sharing between myself
and you. At this point I am the only one with the information because I
have removed the deposit file from the safe. By this doing,what is
required of you is to send an application laying claims of the deposit
as next of kin to the deceased officially to the director of our bank
and it do not matter if you are a man or woman.
I will need your full name and address,telephone and fax number for the processing of the transfer in your name and favour. Finally i want you to understand
that the request for a
foreigner as the next of kin is Occassioned by the fact that the
customer was a foreigner and for that reason a Nigerian cannot
represent as the next of kin. When you contact me,then we shall discuss
on how the money will be split between us,you can respond back to me
through this email address. iqbalnadeem207@yahoo.co.uk
Trusting to hear from you, I remain Respectfully yours, Mr Iqbal Nadeem.

FROM Rose TO YOU.
Dearest,
With Due Respect And Humanity, I was
compelled to write to you under a humanitarian ground.
My name
is Rose gomo. I was born in Baltimore, Maryland, I am married to
Mr.Jean gomo Dramane director J.C Industries Cote d'Ivoire.We were married
for 23 years without a child. He died after a Cadiac Arteries
Operation.
And
Recently, My Doctor told me that I would not last for the next six
months due to my cancer problem (cancer of the lever and
stroke).
Before my
husband died last year there is this sum $9.8 Million Dollars that he
deposited with a Private Finance Company here In Ivory Coast. Presently
this money is still in the Vault of the Company.Having
known my condition I decided to donate this fund to any good God
fearing brother or sister that will utilize this fund the way I am
going to instruct herein.
I want
somebody that will use this fund according to the desire of my
late.husband to help Lessprivilaged people, orphanages,widows and
propagating the word of God.
I took this
decision because I don't have any child that will inherit this fund,
And I don't want in away where this money will be used in an unGodly
way. This is why I am taking this decision to hand you over this Fund.
I am not
afraid of death hence I know where I am going.I want you to always
remember me in your daily prayers because of my up coming Cancer
Surgery.
Write back
as soon as possible any delay in your reply will give me room in
sourcing another person for this same purpose, Hoping to read from you
asap.
God bless you as you listing to the
voice of reasoning,
Rose Gomo.

FROM MR.PATRICK LAWSON
+233207215878
Greetings from Ghana!
Before
I introduce myself, I wish to inform you that this letter is not a hoax
mail and I urge you to treat it serious. This letter must come to you
as a big surprise, but I believe it is only a day that people meet and
become great friends and business partners.
My name is
Mr. Patrick Lawson, the present branch Manager of a bank here in Ghana.
I write you this proposal in good faith, believing that I can trust you
with the information I am about to reveal to you. Like I said, I have a
transaction that will benefit both of us, as your assistance is
required as a foreigner. I use to head the Accounts department in my
bank head office, but last December I was asked to take position of a
Manager of our branch in Kumasi who passed on, so that was how I became
the present Manager and discovered a fortune. As I resumed duty, I
discovered an account with total sum of $12,500,000 million that has
not been operated on for the past 4 years. From my investigation, I
found out that this account belongs to one Late Mr. ANDREAS SCHRANNER a
German great industrialist and a resident of Munich, who unfortunately
lost his life along with his entire famillies in the plane crash of
CONCORDE AIRLINE [Flight AF4590 ] which crashed on 25th JULY, 2000.
You shall read more news about the crash on
visiting this site, which I got during my investigation; http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/859479.stm.
The
account is escrow call account, a secret type of account in my bank and
no other person knows about this account or any thing concerning it,
the account has no other beneficiary. I have kept a close monitoring of
the account since then and nobody has come forward to ask about the
money as next of kin to the late Mr. Andreas Schranner, meaning that no
one is aware of the account.
I
cannot directly take out this money without the help of a foreigner and
that is why I am contacting you for an assistance to claim the funds
and share it with me. As the Manager of my bank branch, I have the
power to influence the release of the funds to any foreigner that comes
up as the next of kin to the account, with the correct information
concerning the account, which I shall give you.
I
am seeking your co-operation to present you as the next of kin to the
account, so that my bank head quarters will release the funds to you.
There is practically no risk involved, the transaction will be executed
under a legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any breach of
law. If you accept to work with me, I want you to state how
you wish
us to share the funds in percentage, so that both parties will be
satisfied. Contact me as soon as you receive this message if you feel
we can work together, so we can go over the details.
Thanking you in advance and may God bless you.
Please, treat with utmost confidentiality. I wait your urgent response.
Regards,
