From: jeffy Ofori <jeffy.ofori@yahoo.com> Reply-To: jeffy.ofori@yahoo.com Subject: very important Date: Mon, 30 Jun 2008 23:41:21 -0700 (PDT) (Tue, 02:41 EDT)
Hello,
I live in Ghana, I am 24 years old and I am a national of Sierra
Leone. With due respect, I am inquiring for your
support to enable me withdraw an amount of U.S. $14m (Fourteen
million United State Dollars) from a savings company in
Ghana.
My father deposited the money in the
company but the money was given to him by his foreign business
associates to be buying gold for him bit by bit in Ghana.
My father deposited the money with a condition in the company, on the behalf of his foreign associates.
The
condition is that in case of eventuality his business associates
have the full legal right to withdraw the money from the company.
So, please, I want you to stand as my father foreign associates to enable me withdraw the money from the company.
You
will write to the company and instruct the manager to release the
money for me. You will have a ratio share of the money after
everything.
My father suffered from stroke attack
for 3 years, all assets were sold to treat him but he did not
survive it. So, please, kindly help
me.
I had been to the company to withdraw
the money but the manager refuse. He is insisting that without my
father foreign associates he will not release the money.
I am waiting to hear from you soon. I will send you the document when I receive your reply. Yours faithfully,
Jeffy

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.
