Dearest Beloved one,

It is my pleasure to contact you for a business venture which I and my Son ,intend to establish in your country.

Though I have not meet with you before but I believe,one has to risk confidence in other to succeed sometimes in life.There is this huge amount of Ten million U.S dollars($10,000,000.00) which my late Husband kept for us in a BANK here in Abidjan before he was assasinated by unknown persons.

Now I and my son have decided to invest these money in your country or anywhere safe enough outside Africa for security and political reasons.We want you to help us claim and retrieve these fund from the Fiduciary Fund Holders and transfer it into your personal account in your country for investment purposes on these areas:

1). Telecommunication
2). the transport industry
3). Five star hotel

Consider this and get back to me as soon as possible.

Thank you so much.

My sincere regards,
Miss Patricia Yace

This is just a small sampling of the hundreds of scam e-mails received each day here at 419baiter.com headquarters.

There are many different types of 419 scam (examples) but they all promise you something (fortune, job with salary/commision, low-interest loan, lottery prize, cheap gold dust/diamonds, 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.
