[ 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.
|
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!!!

Good Day
With all humility and respect
I greet you! Please I do not intend to make you uncomfortable with this
proposal but rather present to you a life time opportunity of a huge
financial deal that will benefit both parties greatly. Straight to the
purpose of this mail.
I am Kojo Machael an account
supervisor here in the Commercial Bank of Ghana.
In 2006 a Foreign Oil and Gas
Marchant client/customer to the
bank working at the Ghana
Petrolum Co-operation made a Fixed Deposit for twelve
calendar months
valued at ₤30 Million British Pounds in my branch. Upon
maturity I
sent a routine notification to his forwarding address but got no reply.
After a month I sent a reminder to his
resident address but no reply. On further investigation I
confirmed
from his co-employers at the Ghana
Petrolum Co-operation that he was involved in the oil explosion which
took place at the Tema Refinary. Meanwhile when he made the
deposit in
branch here he did not declare any kin or relations on his
official
documents including his Bank Deposit paper work in my Branch.
However
this sum of ₤30 Million British Pounds is deposited in Escrow
Fixed
Pounds Account here in my branch. As the account officer I'm
the only
one who has information about the deposit and according to Ghana
law at the expiration of 5 five
years if no one applies for the
claimsof the fund the money will revert to the
ownership of the Ghana
Government.
Consequently
I seek your consent to present you as a foreigner to stand in as the
rightful owner next of kin or business partner to our late
client so
you can claim the money with the help of my attorney. This is
simple.
I would like you to provide me your Full names contact
address well
as your direct telephone number so that I can put in Bank
Computer
Data to prove you as the rightful beneficiary/next of kin to
our late
client who made the deposit.
The money will
be transferred to your nominated bank account in your country and we
share in the ratio of 50% for me and 40% for you 10% to pay
off any
expense we might incur. There is no risk at all as all internal
documentation will manager and retrieve by me and this will guarantee
the successful execution of this transaction on your behalf please
reply immediately via my email address. Upon your response I
will then
provide you with more details and relevant documents that
will helpyou
understand the transaction and swing into the necessary
action while I
confide in you hoping you will not betray me at Last.
Best Regards
Kojo Michael

this arrangement in order to avoid the rest of the children and their

FROM: MR Kris Kabila
23 BREE STREET
JOHANNESBURG ,
SOUTH AFRICA .
Good Day,
I am Mr.Kris Kabila, the son of late
Dr.Radede Kabila, who was
Murdered
in a land dispute in ZIMBABWE.I got your contact during my search for
Reliable
And competent foreigner to handle a confidential financial transaction,
Then
I decided to write you. My late father was among the few black
Zimbabwean rich farmers murdered in cold blood by the agent of the
ruling Government of President ROBERT MUGABE for his alleged support
and sympathy for Zimbabwean opposition party. Before the death of my
father, he took me to South Africa to deposit the sum of Twenty million
US Dollars ($20m) with a security and finance company, as if he knew
the looming danger in Zimbabwe . The money was deposited as a
gem/precious stone to avoid much demurrage from the security firm. This
money was earmarked for the purchase of new machinery and chemicals for
the farms and the establishment of new farms in Lesotho and Swaziland .
This land problem arose when
President R. MUGABE introduced a new land
Act.
Which wholly affects the White rich farmers and some few blacks?
Vehemently
condemned the 'MODUS OPERANDI' adopted by the government. This resulted
to rampant killing and mob actions. I and my family who are currently
Staying
in South Africa as refugees or asylum seekers have decided to enter
your name as foreigner/beneficiary of the Trunk Cases containing the
Cash (USD20M) for further transfer of the money to a foreign country
where we can invest it. I am faced with the dilemma of
claiming/investing this amount of money in South Africa for fear of
encountering the same experience in future since both countries have
the same political history. Moreover, the South African monetary
policy/law does not allow such investment hence I am seeking for an
asylum or refugee.
You
can as well read more about the crises in my country and about this
situation on the following
ites:http://www.cnn.com/2001/WORLD/africa/08/12/violence.zimbabwe/
http://www.guardian.co.uk/zimbabwe/article/0,2763,562148,00.html
I
must let you know that this business is 100% risk free and the nature
of your business does not necessary matter. So if you are willing to
assist us claim the ownership of this money, I and my family have
agreed to give you 20% of the total money, 40% will be for a joint
business venture I will be doing with you and another 35% will be for
me and my family which we shall also invest in your country and the
remaining 5% will be mapped out for all expenses we may incur during
the transaction. Therefore, if you are willing and interested to render
the needed assistance. Please furnish me with your private telephone
and Fax numbers for easy and better communication. Remember that this
is highly confidential and the success of this business depends on how
secret it is being kept. send your reply to this e-mail box ;( kabila1_family@yahoo.com )
