Hello dear, I presume this letter will come to you as a surprise, but as things unfold, we will know each other better. I will start by introducing myself to you, I am Mrs. Zuwira Dora Asare, the wife of chief Patrick Asare, I am from a Moslem home but my marriage to chief Asare turned me into Christianity. I know you might say that I am wrong but the fact remains that Chief was a very good man and he loved me so much, right from my childhood days, he paid my school fees and when my dad died, he was the only person who assisted my poor family till his death.. I became his third wife and the only Moslem in their family, so I was hated by my co-wives and chief kinsmen. Because of that chief always protected me like an egg. Before chief died last month July, he called me in his hospital bed and he told me that he has some money which he deposited in an escrow account at ICB Bank, he directed me to bring one of his files, inside the file is the document covering the deposit of the money.. Then he said to me. ."DORA I KNOW THAT YOU ARE HATED BY MY FAMILY AND WHEN I AM GONE THEY WILL MAKE LIFE MISERABLE FOR YOU AND YOUR ONLY DAUGHTER", then he gave me the file and ask me to file for the release of the money if anything happens to him and he instructed that I should use the money to take care of our daughter. After the burial of chief, the other two wives connived with chief brothers and they sent me away from the family house with nothing. Last week I went to the bank and they confirmed that the money is still intact, I told them that I want the money to be released to me but the bank manager said that I should bring an address in your country for the transfer of the money; according to him, their bank had an agreement with Chief that the money will be transfered to your country anytime it will be released. I do not have any relation over there to help me that is why I need your help. Please help me to secure my daughter future, because our life is no more safe here.. I want to get the money released and transfered out of Ghana to your country as soon as possible, then I will come over and you will assist me to invest the money in a safe lucrative business there. If you are interested in helping me I will give you 20% of the money. The total amount of the money is US$11.5 million us dollars. I want us to be fast about this before Chief family will get to know about it, as for now no one outside my family knows about this.

Thanks and God bless your family.

Waiting for your favorable reply

Mrs. Dora Asare

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.
