FROM DR.SHAKE WADRAGO,

ATTN: FRIEND,
                 A CONFIDENTIAL PROPOSAL TREAT AS URGENT

Good day and compliment of the season.I deem it vital to contact you for a
business proposal based on my position as the accountant General of the bank of
Africa Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso .

During my QUATTERLY AUDITING/ACCOUNTING ,I discovered in a DOMICILIARY ACCOUNT
favouring a foreign customer , the floating sum of US$15,000,000 (fifteen million
Us dollars).

During my investigations on the abandoned sum, I discovered the owner as a GERMAN
citizen named Mr.ANDREAS SCHRANNER who died in a plane crash with his entire
family and subsequently there is no next of kin to his account .Visit the web-
site as posted dated . http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/859479.stm

Based on these factual statements, plus the available facts and figures in the
bank archive ,we stand on a vantage point to putting up a claim on the fund.
This providential mission is hinged on the fact that, it is only a foreigner that
can successfully claim this fund since the late depositor was a foreigner
himself.

What you are required to do implicitly is to put up an application to the bank as
his nominated next of kin by his extended family in GERMANY which is a workable
approach because you will stand by the power of such nomination as his cousin
resident in where you are today to claim this fund into your account for both of
us.

Any question, information that may Be required by the bank during the process of
the reclamation will be forwarded to you on demand as to ensure that this venture
is successful. It is highly confidential and risk free by virtue of my position as
an insider in the bank.

Finally, I shall give you 30% in respect of your assistance to get transferred
this fund into your account oversea.I will release to you a detailed information
covering the abandoned fund on your urgent reply.

DR SHAKE WADRAGO,

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.

NOTE TO SPAMMERS: My scam e-mail filtering system is pretty good but it isn't perfect. Occasionally a regular spam e-mail may get mistakenly published as a 419 scam. This is inadvertent. If you are a spammer and you don't wish to have your spam e-mail published on this website, the solution is simple. Don't send me spam.
