Attention:
This is to officially inform you that we have verified your contract/inheritance payment
file and discovered that the reason why you have not been able to receive your
contract/inheritance payment after fulfilling all stipulated obligations and
documentations is because you have been dealing with impostors and none staff of the
CBN. To this end, all your efforts to secure the release of your fund failed. We
therefore wish to advise that continuing with such illegal acts to claim your
contract/inheritance funds will further frustrate and stop your payment claim.
We have received the express mandate and instructions of the President, Federal Republic
of Nigeria: Alhaji Umaru Yar'Adua GCFR together with the EFCC Nigeria, the Interpol and
the FBI to commence the immediate release of your funds through our swift card payment
center.
Based on the President's directive, we have concluded arrangements for the release of
your payment. The payment will be concluded through our card center which will send to
you an ATM CARD that you will use to withdraw your contract/inheritance funds in any ATM
MACHINE CENTRE in the world .
However, Note that this method of payment will be granted if it is acceptable to you for
the release of your contract/inheritance entitlement.
In View of this, you are advised to contact the Director (CBN, IRD, and ATM) BARR.OHAMBA
ALFRED for further information with the following contact details;
Email: alfredohamba@googlemail.com

TAKE NOTICE: That you are warned to stop further communications with any Other person(s)
or office(s) different from the staff of the ATM Card payment center or BARR.OHAMBA
ALFRED to avoid delays in receiving your contract/inheritance payment claims. This
measure is intended to stop the Impostors you have erroneously been dealing with. You
are to adhere strictly to our code of conduct, which is (ATM-13470) which you will have
to indicate when contacting the card center or OHAMBA ALFRED, by using it as your

It's important to note that
any real people or legitimate
organizations mentioned in these scam e-mails have absolutely no
connection
with this scam!
The scammers never use their real
names.
They frequently 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!!!

This is just a small sampling of the
many hundreds of advance fee fraud e-mails received each day here at
419 BAITER
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.
